Stephen Wigginton

EDWARDSVILLE, Ill. (AP) — Former U.S. Attorney Steve Wigginton has been charged with driving under the influence for the third time since 2017.
Edwardsville Police Chief Jay Keeven says Wigginton was arrested Thursday. He said more details were expected Monday. The court date for his latest charge is Feb. 5.
Wigginton resigned as U.S. attorney for the Southern District of Illinois in 2015. He was charged with a DUI on News Year’s Eve in 2018 and in May 2017. A message left Sunday for a Wigginton attorney wasn’t immediately returned.
