Normally we would not cover a simple DUI arrest but we noticed this one in Boca News Now and we found quite a bit more. Frank Aceste (27) was arrested by Boca Raton city police for DUI, either late Friday night or early Saturday morning. He was released Saturday around noon. The longtime Boca Falls resident has a substantial history in local courts. Between Palm Beach and Broward we count a total of over 30 cases. These include burglary and grand theft felonies from 2008, and a drug felony from 2013, along with numerous traffic tickets ranging from minor to fairly serious.
On a loosely related note, the car burglary incident we mentioned on Facebook previously appears to have led to an arrest. Due to our policy, we are not publishing the arrest details because we see no prior history for the accused and we see no other details that would make it newsworthy.
