He performed poorly on field sobriety tests and was charged with DUI.
Joseph Tabor Riser of N Shem Dr in Mt Pleasant, SC, was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on December 11th, charged with implied consent violation and driving under the influence. A judicial commissioner set his bond at $1,000.
