(12/17/2018) - The police report and video released Monday from Midland County Sheriff Scott Stephenson's drunken driving arrest on Nov. 16 shows he easily qualified as "super drunk" under Michigan law.

Stephenson blew a 0.23 percent blood alcohol level on a breathalyzer test administered in Kalkaska County after a sheriff deputy found him asleep behind the wheel alongside the road.

Under Michigan law, anyone with a blood alcohol content of 0.17 percent or higher is considered "super drunk" and

Video from the deputy's body camera recorded Stephenson's discussion with police, during which he pleaded with the deputy not to arrest him.

"Jesus Christ, I'm a sheriff. I'm a constitutional (expletive) officer," Stephenson was recorded saying. "You can't take me to (expletive) jail. I'm a (expletive) sheriff."

The deputy told Stephenson there was nothing she could do to keep from arresting him since a passerby reported him unresponsive alongside the road and the call was aired on the radio.

He was arrested and taken to the Kalkaska County Jail on drunken driving charges. Stephenson pleaded guilty last week to a misdemeanor charge of impaired driving and sentenced to a year of probation, fines and community service.
