March 8, 2022 – The twice-daily breath tests are administered by Teton County Sheriff’s Department deputies between 6 a.m. and 7 a.m. each morning and from 9 p.m. to 10 p.m. nightly.
Teton County offers remote testing for those who can’t arrive in person for their breath tests.
The program operates in five counties: Teton, Sheridan, Campbell, Fremont and Sweetwater. Rules for implementation can vary by county.
Any failed test or late arrival in Teton County leads to immediate arrest. Participants go to jail until a hearing is scheduled in front of Teton County Circuit Court Judge James Radda, which occurs within 24 hours, Teton County Sheriff Matt Carr said.
The release order that defendants receive after their initial hearing in court includes a judge’s order to enroll in the 24/7 program. To get out of jail immediately, participants must sign the order and another form that outlines the 24/7 program’s rules.
