Dumb Criminals: DUI Suspect Drove Home From Court House Drunk After Being Convicted Of DUI

GRAND ISLAND, N.Y. (AP) -- Authorities say a 44-year-old suburban Buffalo man was drunk when he drove away from a courthouse where he had just been convicted of driving while intoxicated.

The Erie County Sheriff's Office says 44-year-old J.B. Silverthorn of Orchard Park was found guilty of a DWI charge Monday night in Grand Island Town Court. Silverthorn was charged after he crashed his car into the Niagara River on Dec. 29. He was rescued by firefighters.

Deputies say Silverthorn was drunk during Monday's court appearance and told not to attempt to drive home.
