An off-duty Milwaukee County sheriff's deputy who was unresponsive and appeared to be intoxicated when he was found behind the wheel of a car that was parked on a West Allis street last week is the same deputy who showed his badge and pleaded with a Hales Corners officer to let him go when he was arrested for drunken driving in 2008.The deputy, identified by sources as 36-year-old Christopher P. Conell, was convicted of first-offense operating while intoxicated after his 2008 arrest.That case began when the Hales Corners officer pulled Conell over about 12:45 a.m. March 18, 2008, after seeing Conell's car drift across the center line three times on W. Grange Ave. near S. 110th St., according to the incident report.
