BREAKING: Accused DWI Cop Indicted by Grand Jury

NYPD Officer Alex Kelly has been indicted on vehicular manslaughter and DWI charges in connection with the late September accident that killed pedestrian Vionique Valnord as she tried to hail a cab. Of course, Kellly managed to postpone taking a blood alcohol test for over seven hours, so he scored a perfect zero on the test, which is going to make it hard for prosecutors to make the DWI rap stick.

Good, but I'm betting he'll beat the DWI and remain on the force.

I think once you get indicted you automatically lose your badge, but I could be wrong.

It would make sense though if that was the case.
