Councilman Marc Whyte's DWI court appearance punted 2nd time

Councilman Marc Whyte on Tuesday was scheduled to make his first court appearance on a charge of driving while intoxicated — but his defense attorney punted for the second time this year. Whyte, who was arrested on suspicion of drunken driving on Dec. 29, is now scheduled to appear in Bexar County Court 11 on May 14. The District 10 councilman's arraignment was originally slated for Jan.

’s John Paul Barajas has license suspended for 6 months in DWI case An officer with the San Antonio Police Department’s DWI unit pulled over the Northeast Side councilman just after 11 p.m. on Dec. 29. In a police affidavit, the officer said he'd observed Whyte speeding and changing lanes without signaling on a Northeast Loop 410 frontage near the San Antonio International Airport.

board wins City Council approval — despite skirmish The City Council censured Whyte for his actions in January, but the formal reprimand carries no tangible consequences. Mayor Ron Nirenberg temporarily removed Whyte from three council committees he sat on, making it more difficult for him to influence city policy on their way to the dais. Nirenberg hasn't said when he will reinstate Whyte to those committees.
