A jury in Steamboat Springs today found Routt County Sheriff Gary Wall
guilty of driving while ability impaired, failure to dim his headlights and
prohibited use of a weapon.

The Routt County Court jury rejected the sheriff's defense in the three-day
trial - that he was targeted by state troopers and framed when he was pulled
over on U.S. 40 last October, the Steamboat Pilot reported on its website.

The sheriff claimed he had only one glass of wine that night, but he refused
to do a roadside sobriety tests or submit to any tests of his blood-alcohol
level, according to the newspaper.

A sentencing date has not yet been set. The conviction won't affect Wall's
job, since he is an elected official, unless voters organize a recall
election.
