Ian Baker - Jack Daniel's Steak

Ian Baker, 23, claims he didn't violate the absolute sobriety term of his bond for his fourth OWI arrest.

Baker insists that the reason he failed a breathalyzer test when he was checked on Monday was not because he consumed alcohol. He blames the results on a Jack Daniels steak he the night before.

From the Sheboygan Press:

A Sheboygan man with a fourth drunken driving charge pending is facing a new charge after failing a breathalyzer test, then claiming the test result was from eating a Jack Daniels steak, according to a criminal complaint.

Ian A. Baker... was charged Tuesday with misdemeanor bail jumping, which carries a maximum penalty of nine months in jail.

According to the complaint:

Baker came to his court-ordered intoxicated driver intervention program Monday morning and blew a blood-alcohol level of 0.07 on a breath test. He then denied drinking any alcohol and blamed the test result on eating a Jack Daniels steak the night before.

Baker was charged in July with the fourth-offense OWI and released on a $1,500 signature bond that forbade alcohol consumption.

Baker must have had his steak swimming in a bowl Jack Daniels.

Jack Daniel's sauces served at places like TGI Friday's don't get the diners drunk. Restaurants don't card people before they can order food prepared with sauces containing a bit of alcohol.

Baker's claim that he had a 0.07 test the morning after eating a Jack Daniel's steak the night before is crazy.

Jack Daniel's Steak Sauces available in grocery stores, made by Heinz, contain no alcohol.

JACK DANIEL'S® EZ MARINADER, BARBECUE SAUCES AND STEAK SAUCES DO NOT CONTAIN ALCOHOL.

Baker's excuse for blowing a 0.07, in spite of being prohibited from consuming any alcohol, is so silly; but it really isn't funny.

He's 23 years old and he's screwing up his life. He has a serious problem.
