In 2019, Grossell was arrested and cited for disorderly conduct and trespassing after becoming unruly at a hotel bar near the Capitol. He was accused of threatening security personnel who responded and staff at a nearby hospital.

Grossell, a retired Clearwater County sheriff’s deputy and former Blackduck police chief, agreed to enter a court diversion program and was not convicted. He was removed from the House public safety and judiciary committees as a result.

... Grossell’s arraignment is set for March, although his attorney has asked to have the hearing delayed until April due to a scheduling conflict.


0.16 BAC is the the threshold for a gross misdemeanor charge. So GrossAsHell missed that by 0.01

Another article I saw said his attorney is asking to have his driving privileges restored.

The same or another article said GrossAsHell wasn't booked into jail because it was closed for the night. The article didn't explain how GrossAsHell got home -- it was less than 10 minutes from his house.
