5. Rhoten, Brian: Drunk Driving Is there a difference between DWI, DUI or OWI? All three terms are used to refer to driving while intoxicated or under the influence of alcohol. Iowa has an operating while intoxicated law that comes with heavy fines and jail time. The minimum punishment for a first-time OWI charge is usually $1,250 in fines in addition to two days in jail. Your driver's license may also be revoked for 180 days or more.

7. Michael Winter: What does it mean to prove guilt "beyond a reasonable doubt?" The prosecutor must convince the judge or jury hearing the case that the defendant is guilty "beyond a reasonable doubt." This standard is very hard to meet. (By contrast, in non-criminal cases, such as an accident or breach of contract, a plaintiff has to prove her case only by a preponderance of the evidence -- just over 50%.) As a practical matter, the high burden of proof in criminal cases means that judges and jurors are supposed to resolve all doubts about the meaning of the evidence in favor of the defendant. With such a high standard imposed on the prosecutor, a defendant's most common defense is often to argue that there is reasonable doubt-that is, that the prosecutor hasn't done a sufficient job of proving that the defendant is guilty.
