Multiple DUI’s: Warrant Issued In Case Of Man That Threatened Deputy
June 4, 2009
An arrest warrant has been issued for a McDavid man arrested last month for drunk driving and threatening a deputy after court officials learned that he had violated his probation on a previous DUI convinction.
Michael Aaaron Killam, 29, was arrested in late May for driving under the influence, driving while his license was suspended, resisting arrest without violence and for threatening a deputy and his family. He was also issued traffic citations for an open container of alcohol and failure to drive in a single lane.
Escambia County deputy James Gilman was on Pine Barren Road the morning of May 20 at brush fire when Killam made a u-turn in the roadway to avoid approaching Gilman’s patrol car and fire trucks. He sped away, prompting Gilman to follow. After observing Killam cross the yellow center and side white lines of the highway several times, Gilman initiated a traffic stop on Highway 164.
That’s when Gilman said Killam headed for the passenger seat, reaching into the floorboard. After Killam was removed from the vehicle, he refused a field sobriety test and stated that his license was already suspended for DUI.
Killam was released on $6,500 bond.
The charges late last month prompted an arrest warrant to be issued this week for Killam for violating terms of his probation from a 2006 DUI case. In that case, Killam was charged with his third DUI in 10 years, refusal to submit to a DUI test and driving with his license suspended for the second time.
In 2005, Killam was convicted of his second DUI, refusal to submit to a DUI test and driving with a suspended license. His first DUI conviction stemmed from a 2003 accident, according to court records.

I am having a really hard time with this one. I think the world has lost their minds!! I know/knew this guy and this is so far from his MO!!! I pray that if he needs help he gets it and I pray for his family through this. This guy wouldn’t hurt a fly!!
I know a multitude of people do not beleive this,but there is a very fine line between one casual drink and addiction.That is the best reason to just stay away from the first drink. No one knows where that line is .. so the safest thing is to just not take the first drink.
We had a brilliant architect friend who one day crossed the line and could not return.His tragic death a few years later leaves a lasting impression on our minds and a emptyness in our hearts..Young people ,please just don’t start drinking…and if you already have..STOP before it is too late..and if you can’t stop on your own…get help…
What has happened to this young man? He was always so active in the fields
running the tractor,staying busy when he was in middle and high school …..one just guessed he had a good head on his shoulders….that he would really do something good with his life…is there a possible chemical inbalance or tumor….or did he just wander away from reality? Did he lose sight of important things in life?
Or perhaps he just stepped out of the realm of GOD’S loving arms? I do pray that Aaron will find his way back…………I love you,Aaron
