Huntress was arrested and booked into the Marshall County Jail with charges of operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated with a Blood Alcohol Content of .15 or more.

They are presumed innocent throughout the proceedings and are entitled to be represented by counsel and entitled to a trial by jury at which the State is obligated to provide proof beyond a reasonable doubt before a judgment of guilt may be made.
