Democratic Chief Fined for Dangerous Driving Case
Gael Sullivan, 42, vice chairman and executive director of the Democratic National Committee, was fined 100 dollars and costs in District Court for dangerous driving on the night of July 3. He had pleaded innocent earlier to driving while under the influence, which was reduced to dangerous driving. Sullivan did not contest the lesser charge. The town solicitor said the reduction was due to a rookie officer failing to inform Sullivan of his right to a physician of his choosing for sobriety testing.
