The leader of the Massachusetts Democratic Party was arrested during a traffic stop on alleged drunken driving charges last month and days later admitted to prosecutors there were sufficient facts to support a conviction, according to state court records.
A judge on June 15 — two days after the traffic stop in the town of Southborough — continued the operating under the influence (OUI) liquor charge without a finding after Steve Kerrigan, chairman of the state's Democratic Party, entered an "admission to sufficient facts," a Massachusetts legal disposition in which a defendant acknowledges prosecutors have enough evidence to obtain a conviction, according to Westborough District Court records.
In addition to the OUI charge, Kerrigan, 54, faced a negligent operation charge and a marked lanes violation.
The negligent operation charge was dismissed, and he was found not responsible for the marked lanes violation.
