Negotiated Plea Deal for Addison County Prosecutor’s DUI Case
Plea Deal Reached in Addison County DUI Case
A resolution is underway for the DUI charge against Addison County State’s Attorney Eva Vekos. The agreement, discussed in a recent court hearing, would allow Vekos to plead no contest and potentially avoid jail time.
Details of the Proposed Plea Agreement
After private discussions in the courtroom, Judge John Pacht and the involved attorneys reached a framework for the plea deal. Vekos, charged last year after an incident involving intoxicated driving to a crime scene, would plead no contest. The plea could result in a deferred sentence of probation.
Factors Influencing the Judge’s Decision
Judge Pacht expressed willingness to approve the plea deal, despite state objections. Key considerations include the lengthy duration of the case, Vekos’s compliance with her driver’s license suspension, and completion of a requisite program.
