⚖️ Cape Coral Councilwoman Rachel Kaduk heads to court today on her DUI case.
The city councilwoman was arrested in December and charged with driving under the influence and refusing a breathalyzer test. Body camera footage captured her performing field sobriety tests before officers handcuffed her and transported her to Cape Coral police headquarters, then the Lee County jail.
Kaduk has pleaded not guilty and completed DUI school. Her trial is scheduled for 1 p.m. today.
This latest chapter comes as many Cape Coral residents continue to express frustration with their elected officials.
What does this say about the standards we should expect from our local leaders, and what changes would you like to see in how Cape Coral holds its council members accountable?
