If it was anybody else who had done it they'd leave it up to the defense's lawyers to figure out if the person drawing blood was authorized. So not only did they botch the sampling, but whoever was investigating put that out there when it didn't need to come out in court. Maybe the municipality would be providing his defense and that's why.

At least he's still facing:

"That leaves a Class C felony count of reckless homicide as the most serious charge, alongside two newly filed Class D felony counts of criminal recklessness."

Hopefully the judge maxes out some of those charges due to him not facing the others.
