’90 Day Fiance’: Corey Rathgeber DUI Details – Refused Breath Test – Drove Recklessly
90 Day Fiance: The Other Way cast member Corey Rathgeber was arrested by police on November 15, 2019 in Skamania, Washington for DUI. We have the police report and it reveals never reported details on what he said to the deputy that stopped him and how far over the legal limit he was while driving. Check out all the details below from Corey’s arrest report Soap Dirt obtained.
90 Day Fiance: Corey Rathgeber Breathed High – How Many Drinks Did He Have?
In the police report, 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way‘s Corey Rathgeber said he only had two beers. And he said he’d had them hours before. But, that doesn’t align to his breathalyzer report. First, Corey Rathgeber would not take a breath test at the site of his traffic stop. However, he failed other sobriety tests. So, the officer arrested him at the scene. Then the 90 Day Fiance Mormon was breath tested at the station.
In Washington state, the legal limit is .08. You can see Corey Rathgeber’s breath results above, he was far above what qualifies for a DUI arrest. We spoke to an experienced DUI lawyer who told us that for a male weighing 170-180 lbs, that breath result indicates five to six alcoholic drinks consumed. So, how much did the 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way star consume before he drove?
Officer Describes Corey as Unfocused and Sloppy After DUI Stop
In the detailed arrest report on the 90 Day Fiance DUI obtained by SD, Corey Rathgeber’s eyes were described as “red and watery” and he couldn’t tell his insurance card from his registration. And the arresting officer said he “seemed confused” and he smelled “the odor of intoxicants” from Corey’s car. And he showed signs of intoxication on all the field sobriety tests.
Plus, the 90 Day Fiance reported husband of Evelin Villegas had other troubles at the stop. Because, Corey Rathgeber refused a roadside breathalyzer then resisted at the sheriff’s station too. See above where the officer said Corey thought if he didn’t do the test, he wouldn’t get a DUI. Corey was clearly wrong and was already arrested before he did the test.
Corey Told Arresting Officer That 90 Day Fiance Is His Job
Another curiosity from this 90 Day Fiance arrest is that Corey Rathgeber listed TLC as his employer. Many fans wonder where Corey gets money to travel and fund Evelin’s bar. According the report above, the reality show is where he works. However, our production source says Corey and Evelin aren’t slated for another season of 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way (as of now).
Another tidbit from Corey Rathgeber’s DUI report is this. He told officers he’s “going to be out of the country for up to a year”. That’s why he didn’t want to let officers test his breath – because he thought the arrest would end his travel plans. The arresting officer said that Corey “did not seem to comprehend that… he was currently under arrest for DUI”.
90 Day Fiance Court Date in June – He’s in Ecuador With Cats and Evelin
The arrest report SD has in hand also shows that his mother picked up Corey Rathgeber after his DUI arrest. The court dates have changed a few times, but the latest reports indicate a follow-up hearing in June 2020. Meanwhile, the 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way cast member is back down in Ecuador posting cat selfies and throwback pics of him and his wife Evelin.
Plus, there’s more information on Corey and Evelin’s 90 Day Fiance status. As fans know, they’re pretending to be engaged on reality TV. But the copy of Evelin’s legal status (above) shows she and Corey Rathgeber are married. There’s no spot on the arrest report for Corey to list spouse info, but her ID seems to confirm their marriage. So, is TLC frauding fans or being defrauded?
Finally, the police report said they “forced” 90 Day Fiance husband Corey into handcuffs because he didn’t understand what was happening. Officers described as having a flushed face, watery, droopy, bloodshot eyes, and soiled clothing. They also said his speech was repetitive and slurred.
As a side note, Laura Jallali mentioned his DUI in a recent live and Corey Rathgeber threatened her with legal action if she talked about him again. But the truth is in the police report. This report confirms Corey’s DUI and that his breath test greatly surpassed the legal limit. Stay tuned for more updates on his court case and arrest.
