Hello. Hi. Stops being recorded. Do you

insurance? My license.
Insurance registration. Do you know why
I'm stopping you today? I do not. So,
you're going way under the speed limit.
You're in the middle lane. Um where you
need to be in the right hand lane unless
you're passing cars. Okay. Um, I was
just following my car just changed to
55. Okay. I was just following the
speed. Well, back in the 35, you were
going about 20. Really? Yeah. So, you're
being ultra safe, it looks like. Have
you had any alcohol to drink tonight?
No. I've been following the speed limit
on my car says it's been saying I've
been going 35. I click this button and
it has me follow the speed limit. You
can see it right there. Okay. You
haven't had any alcohol to drink. I
smell the odor of intoxicants coming
from the car. Do you mind if I check
your eyes real quick? See the tip of
this? Just follow it with your eyes.
Don't move your head.
Okay. Okay. You have had alcohol to
drink tonight. Okay. So, now's the time
to be honest with me. I haven't had any
alcohol. Okay. By looking at your eyes,
it's obvious that you've had alcohol to
drink tonight. Okay. Is there any
alcohol in the car? No. Okay, hang tight
for me. I'll be right back.

Last of Dominique David Ocean Mary Ida
Norora Young first of Paige Paul Adam
Ida George Edward Middle
K123003 female through Idaho.
Um, so she's going 20 in the 35 and then
she's going 35 in the 50. She's in the
left lane, not in the right lane. Yeah.
Uh, odor of alcohol, blood, child water,
guys. Says she hasn't been drinking.
Okay.
Oh, I got everything. Oh, okay.
Paige, can you exit the car for me? What
did you say? Can you exit the car for
me?
Thank you. Just we'll just go back to
the back here,
Parker. Okay. So,
um I've been doing this job for a little
while, Paige. Okay. Talking to you, I
can smell the odor of intoxicants coming
from your breath. Your eyes are
bloodshot water. Your speech is slurred.
By looking at your eyes, doing a
modified HGM test, it's obvious that
you've consumed alcohol tonight. Okay?
So, what I'd like for you to do is take
some voluntary field sobriety tests,
okay? So, I can evaluate your ability to
safely operate a motor vehicle. Okay?
Okay. First test I'm going to do is take
a look at your eyes again. Okay? Why
don't you just get a little bit further
off the road? Okay. Do you see the tip
of my pin? I want you to follow it with
your eyes and your eyes only. Don't move
your head. Okay?
Just keep falling. Just keep looking at
it.
[Applause]
Okay.
Um, next one I'm going to do is I'm
going to go up.
Okay.
Okay. So, the next test is a walk and
turn test. Okay. For this test, what I
want you to do is imagine a straight
line out in front of you. I want you to
place your right foot on that line. I'm
sorry, your left foot on that line right
now. And then place your right foot in
front of your left foot touching heel to
toe. Okay? Just remain in that position.
Oh, nope. Go back. Just remain in this
position until I tell you to start the
test. Okay? I want you to keep your arms
down at your side. When I tell you to
start, what I want you to do is take
nine heel to toe steps down your
imaginary line. It's going to look just
like this. 1 2 3 and so on until you get
to nine. Once you get to your ninth
step, step out with your back foot. Take
a series of small steps and turn and
face the way you just came from and take
nine steps back in that direction. 1 2 3
and so on until you get to nine. Okay? I
want to caution you. Make sure you look
down at your feet. You count each step
out loud and once you start the test,
don't stop it until you've completed it.
Do you understand my instructions? Yes,
I do. Okay, you can begin.
1
2 3 4 5 6
7
2 3
4
5 6 7 8 9 Okay, next test I'd like for
you to do is the one leg stand test. For
this test, when I tell you to start,
what I want you to do is take either
foot of your choice, lift it
approximately 6 in off the ground, and
point your toe forward. That's going to
make the bottom of your foot parallel to
the ground. I want you to look down at
your foot and count by 1,00 1,002 1,003
and so on until I tell you to stop.
Okay? Okay. Okay. Does that make sense?
Which foot are you going to race? I'll
use my left foot.
Ready? Okay, you can go ahead and begin.
1 2

5 6 7 8 Okay, pick it up and just start
counting where you left off.
9 10
11
12
13 14 15 Okay, you can you can stop.
Okay, last test is a portable breath
test. What this will do is just show me
how much alcohol you've had to drink.
Okay, it's a voluntary test and it's not
used in the evidentiary breath test.
When's the last time you had anything to
drink?
I don't have anything.
Nothing at
all. Okay, take a deep breath. Blow
through the straw like you're blowing up
a balloon. Keep going. Keep going. Keep
going. Keep going. Keep going. Keep
going. Stop.
You're under 21, right? Yes. Okay. It
takes a few seconds here. So, you
haven't had anything at all. So, this
should say all zeros, right? It says
a.132. Okay. So, you're over the legal
limit. Okay.
Go ahead and turn around. Place your
hands behind your back. You're under
arrest for DUI. Okay. Put your palms
together like you're praying. Like
you're praying. There you go.
I'm just going to double lock these. I
don't want these to get tight on you.
Is that not supposed to be a voluntary
test? Which one?
It is a voluntary test. I told you it
was a voluntary test. Um, do you have
anything in your pockets right now? I
don't think so. Okay. I'm just going to
check your front pockets here.
Okay. I'm going to have you have a seat
in the back of my car. Okay. Do you want
your wallet and phone stuff? Probably
going to want your wallet and phone. My
phone? I'm not sure.
We can have your friend look for it for
you. Okay. We'll go have a seat in the
back of the car. So, since you're under
arrest for DUI, you have the right to
remain silent. Anything you say can be
used against you in a court of law. You
have the right to the presence of an
attorney during questioning. You cannot
afford an attorney. One will be
appointed for you prior to questioning
if you so desire. You can decide at any
time to exercise those rights, not make
any statements or answer any questions.
Do you understand those rights? Yes,
they do. Okay. Um, has your friend had
any alcohol to drink tonight? Not to the
extent of my knowledge. Okay.
I can drive the train home and then I
can just park it right here. Am I
allowed to have my phone so I can call
my parents? Oh, of course. Yeah, we're
going to take it.
Um, okay. Cuz her friend's been
drinking. Did she say? Okay. Uh, well,
let me ask her what she wants to do with
her car. Hey, Paige, do you want us We
can park your car safely off the road
over there, or we can tow it if you
want. It's your choice what you'd like
to do.
I prefer you to park it to park it. Save
you a tow bill that way. So, we'll park
we'll pull it over there so it's safely
off the road. Lock it up. And then this
deputy's going to give your friend a
ride home cuz she said that she's had
too much to drink.
So, and then he'll bring he'll bring the
keys down. Am I allowed to call my
parents right now? Once we're done with
the process, you'll be able to Okay.
Is that your marijuana or hers?
Is this her marijuana or yours? That's
mine.
Are you under 21?
Yeah, cuz I'm like I see it. I'm like,
"Oh, that's marijuana." Okay. Um, can
she work on Oh, wait. This is This is
nicotine. It's a vape. Wait, so you have
marijuana with you? No, not with me,
though. But

get it. I'll get the keys to you. Hey,
ma'am. So, can you work on trying to
find a ride that could come pick her up
at the police station? Somebody that's
sober.
Does your parents live in Moscow? They
live in like they live in Houston. Oh,
okay. So, they're close by. Yeah. Okay.
Like like 45 minutes or something. Okay.
We'll work on that. Okay. I don't know
their number. Okay. She has her phone,
so we'll be able to call them from
there.
Okay. All
right. Sounds good.
All right. I don't want this.
Okay. All right.
All right. Let's lock it up. Let's go.
I'm going to take a fresh me. Is that
okay? That's fine.
And then I do have a backpack in the
back. That's fine.
This is not. Yep.
All right. Real quick, just before we
go, open up the backpack. Make sure
there's no guns. Oh, of
course. Just
Oh, I'm Oh my god. I'm so sorry.
All right. Makeup. Yeah. Makeup,
clothes, perfume.
Good. Let's go.
[Applause]
I'm so sorry. It's
[Music]
okay. You lock the car.
[Music]
Paige, are you are you wanting to have
your parents come pick you up tonight
or do you have somebody? I can talk to
them. Okay. Once we get to the Pullman
Police Station, what will what I'll do?
Normally I don't, but before we start,
they aren't going to pick me up to be
honest, but I would like to call them.
Where do you live at? Lewon. Where are
you headed to right now? I was taking
her to Moscow to go see some guy. And
then what? You were going to drive to
Lewon tonight? No. Where were you going
to go to tonight? I was going to stay at
my friend's house. Where's that at? It's
in Pullman. In Pullman? Yes. I can get
you there if you'd like when we're done
with the process. I'm not going to book
you into jail. Okay. You've been
cooperative with me. And I mean, I know.
And I'm not trying to give you a soda
story, but I'm supposed to become a
flight attendant. Okay. And I can't do
that if I have a DUI. So, I just ruined
myself. So, well, just do what you need
to do. Paige, here's what I'll tell you
is lots of people get DUIs. Cops get
DUIs. Doctors get DUI that. But okay, I
don't want to. You made a mistake. I
know. And a lot of things can happen in
court. You don't necessarily are. You're
not going to be I'm not scared of court.
I'm scared of my parents. Yeah. Well,
you're not necessarily going to be found
guilty of DUI. Okay. There's a lot of
things that have to happen between now
and then. Okay. You made a mistake
tonight, and that's that's what it boils
down to. It's not like you're out there
committing all sorts of crimes. This is
your first mistake. It looks like
in dumb ass. Sorry. It's okay. But guess
what? This is stupid to cry because I
[ __ ] did it. Paige, guess what
though? Nobody got hurt. Okay, I know.
But and we can get past this. This is a
bump in the road. I promise you it's
not. Okay. Well, let's we're going to
head We're going to head to Pullman. Um
then if you want to call your parents,
you're more than welcome to. or if you
want to just go through the process and
then I will give you a ride to your
friends if you know where your friend
lives. Um, can I
ask
if you're saying that there's the
possibility that it's not DUI? Uh-huh.
Does that just mean like go to court?
Like Well, so you would go to court. Um,
the prosecutor can offer different
deals. Your defense attorney can come up
with ideas. Um, what I don't want you to
think is just cuz you're arrested for it
that you've automatically been found
guilty of it. Okay? A lot of things have
to happen between now and then. Um, it's
it's likely it's possible that you will
be found guilty of DUI, but it's also
you we don't want to focus on that right
now. Let's just take it one step at a
time and we'll go from there. Okay? So,
and I promise that you'll still be able
to be a flight attendant. Okay? If I
have a record, I can't. You'll still
it'll be fine. Okay? If we're talking a
misdemeanor DUI, I can guarantee lots of
flight attendants get DUIs. Okay, I have
to wait. Please Oh, I don't know about
that, Paige. So, I don't want to promise
you anything, but I can tell you I can
tell you that um I think you're still
going to be fine being a flight
attendant. Thank you for being so kind.
No problem. Well, let's head to Pullman
and we'll get through that process. It's
a little warmer there than it is
alongside the road. He's going to give
your friend a ride to Moscow and Okay.
So, do you see where where did you leave
her lights on? Yeah.
I think they're on auto right now.
They're on auto, I believe. So, okay.
Just has to be locked. I have your
phone. Did you lock them? Yes. Is my
wallet in there, Elise? She has your
wallet. I have your whole fog.
Is my wallet or just the fog? I just
have your fog. I have your
I have your whole pack, too. Do you want
to take that with you? Your fanny pack?
Um, sure. I don't know. Okay. To adjust
this. You don't think your wallet's in
here? No. I gave you the wallet. Oh, is
that what Cy gave me?
This is It looks like the fob. I think
Elise. Yeah. Does she want this? Yeah.
If you just click Okay. the top
button. If you just click the top button
at least a couple of times. This one's
like the locker. And then you can just
take the fanny pack. Put the wallet in
there. Okay. I've got your wallet. Oh,
okay. You can just take We'll run over
there and make sure that we get the
lights off. Do you want this, too? She
said you could take that. Okay. Okay.
Thank you.
Yeah, I got a card.
Thank
you. We'll run over there and see what's
going on with your lights. I don't want
you to have a dead battery. Thank you.
Yeah, no problem.
It should talk unless the lights were
left on inside. I don't I think they
might have been. So, let me um let me go
check them. It might be. So, there's
like two separate lights. There's one on
the left and one on the right. But it's
more off to the right. There's like a
little light button, too. Okay. Might be
that. Okay. I'm not 100% sure. It's a
new car, so Okay.
I'll check it out here.
Okay, so we got that taken care of. I
got your phone and wallet and your
keys. And you see where your car is
parked here on Forest Way,
just off of the
highway. Okay. Yeah. Two SR 270 State
Route 270 and Forest Way just outside of
P.
address Paul 9. I'll be in route to PPD
with one for the test. Beginning mileage
46 938
stepped up on that. I'm out of PPD and
mileage. 46
939. Okay.
Okay, Paige, go ahead and hop out. Just
watch your head as you get
out. And then we're going to go to these
front doors up here. And I'll open them
for you cuz it's kind of hard when you
have handcuffs on to open the door.
Come on in and I'll get the next door
for you.
Yeah. So, the next door we're going to
go to, see the one with the orange piece
of paper on it? Yeah, I'm going to have
you go in there. That's a little room.
And then I'll come around and get you on
the other side. So, you're just going to
hang out in here till I open the other
door.
Okay. I'll be right around there. Okay.
[Music]
How's it going? Good. How are you? Good.
You guys are the best. Thank you so
much.
Okay, Paige, just come on through here.
I'm going to take your handcuffs off you
as soon as we get. Let me set all your
stuff down here. Thank you.
Okay, let's get those off. Those are
super uncomfortable.
So, are you do you want to call your
parents tonight or do you want to just
wait and talk to them in the morning?
Am I allowed to call anyone other than
my parents? Uh, like what are you
thinking? My sister. Where's your sister
at?
Oh, okay. Why don't we um why don't we
just get through this process? Oh,
that's okay. And then what is going on?
There we go. And then um you can call
your family as soon as we get done. I'm
not going to take you to jail. Just have
a seat in Yeah. one of these chairs.
Um I like to ask I don't know. You can
ask anything. I don't know if I can
answer it. Fair enough. Was it my eyes?
Your eyes. So that was I have a
stigmatism. Yeah. Um but what we look
for is nestagmas
and that's something that's caused by
alcohol, not a stigmatism. But um yeah,
so that's one of the clues. And then the
odor of intoxicants on your breath. Were
you drinking like um peppermint schnops
by chance? I was not. What were you
drinking? Oh, it's your gum that I'm
smelling now. I have gum in my mouth.
What were you
drinking? You can just be honest with
me. I don't know what's in your mouth.
Okay. You don't have to tell me either.
You don't have to answer any questions
like I told you. Uh so what I've got to
do is we got to go through this
paperwork. I'm I need you to spit your
gum out, okay? Cuz that's part of the
breath test. Um is you can't have
anything in your mouth. I'm going to
check your mouth real quick. Uh where's
my flashlight? There we go. Open your
mouth up. Lift your tongue up. You don't
even have cavities. What the heck?
Oh man. Okay. So, don't put your hands
in your mouth. It's a It's a terrible
habit. We all try and touch our face and
mouth. Do as best you can. Cuz my nose
is running, so I'm like rubbing my nose
now. So, and that's fine. Just make sure
you don't put anything in your mouth. Do
you need a clean or Yes, please.
There is some right here. Perfect. Yeah,
help yourself.
Of course. Um, so what I'm we're going
to do is go over this packet here. I'll
explain everything to you and then I'll
give you the opportunity to take the
breath test. Okay. Um, and then we will
go from there. Okay. If you're confused
about anything, just make sure you ask
me cuz I want you to understand it all.
Okay. So, uh, going to read you your
rights again. Okay.
Um, this just says on this daytime and
location of this arrest, I have the
authority to arrest pursuant to my
agency's jurisdiction. Um, so just means
that I'm a police officer and I can
arrest you and you are in my
jurisdiction. Um, constitutional rights.
You have the right to remain silent. You
have the right at this time to an
attorney. Anything you say can and will
be used against you in a court of law.
You're over 18, right? Yes. Okay. That
doesn't apply.
You have the right to talk to an
attorney before answering any questions.
You have the right to have an attorney
present during the questioning. If you
cannot afford an attorney, one will be
appointed for you without cost if you so
desire. You can exercise these rights at
any time. Do you understand these
rights? Yes. Okay. And this I'm just
going to ask you if you'll sign this. It
just says, "I have read or have had read
to me the above explanation of my
constitutional rights and I understand
these rights." Okay.
Okay. And I I will have you hold on to
the pen because I got one more thing
here. Um this says, "I understand my
constitutional rights. I've decided not
to exercise these rights at this point.
Any statements made by me are made
freely, voluntarily, and without threats
or promises of any kind." Do you
understand that? Yes. Okay. So, it just
says, "If you talk to me, I didn't
threaten you or anything like that. If
you answer any questions, if you'll sign
there, right here." Yeah. So, under
subject signature,
now I'll take it back for a little bit.
I got a lot of reading in to you. Okay,
let's see here.
It is 3:14.
Can I possibly text my boss? Um, or not.
Like, can I ask why you want to text
him? because I have work at 10 in the
morning and I just want to make sure
that you're going to be you'll be able
to work tomorrow. Okay. Does that make
sense? Yeah, that makes sense. I'm not
taking you to jail. If you want to text
him, you sure can. Okay. I'm fine with
um we'll see. Yeah. Once we get done is
this takes
about half hour to an hour. Once we get
done with this, then you can call and
text anyone you want. So, Sounds good.
[Music]
He gave me this piece of paper.
[Music]
Okay. So, this is implied consent
warning for breath. It says, "Warning,
you're under arrest for
RCW4661502 or
RCW4661504, driving or being in actual
physical control of a motor vehicle
while under the influence of
intoxicating liquor and/or drugs.
Further, you're now being asked to
submit to a test of your breath, which
consists of two separate samples of your
breath taken independently to determine
alcohol concentration. You are now
advised that you have the right to
refuse this breath test and that if you
refuse, your driver's license permit or
privilege to drive will be revoked or
denied by the Department of Licensing
for at least one year and your refusal
to submit to this test may be used in a
criminal trial. You're further advised
that if you submit to this breath test
and the test is administered, your
driver's license permit or privilege to
drive will be suspended, revoked, or
denied by the Department of Licensing
for at least 90 days. If you are age 21
or over and the test indicates the
alcohol concentration of your breath is
0.08 or more or you're in violation of
RCW4661502 driving under the influence
or
RCW4661504 physical control of a vehicle
under the influence or under age 21 and
the test indicates the alcohol
concentration of your breath is 0.02 02
or more, or you're in violation of
RCW4661502, driving under the influence,
or
RCW4661504, physical control of a
vehicle under the influence. If your
driver's license permit or privilege to
drive is suspended, revoked, or denied,
you may be eligible to immediately apply
for ignition interlock driver's license.
You have the right to additional tests
administered by any qualified person of
your own choosing. Does that make sense?
I think so. Yeah. You think so? Do you
want me to read it again?
Would you like more of just like the
wording? Would you I don't know. I just
Would you like to talk to an attorney
before you make any decisions?
No. Okay. I don't. We have public
defenders I can call that would be able
to help you if you're if you're confused
about any of this. Okay. Um if you feel
comfortable going forward then we can do
that too. Just move forward. Okay. Um do
you want to read over this or do you
want me to read it again? I think I
understand it. Okay. Um so I'm going to
sign here saying I have read the above
statements to you. Okay. And if you'll
sign here just saying I've read or had
read to me the above statements.
So, right in the subject
signature. Thank
you. And that is 38.
Okay. Will you now submit to a breath
test?
Sure. Okay. Yes.
Um, are you confused about any of this?
I mean, I don't think so. I don't know.
I mean, it's obviously all new to me, so
I understand. I'm not sure. You're not
sure if you confuse. Is there any part
of it that doesn't make sense to you?
It's It's not necessarily that doesn't
make sense,
but am I allowed to talk to my parents
before or No. Um,
no. And you're allowed to talk to an
attorney. Um, I think an attorney, in my
honest opinion, an attorney will give
better advice than your parents just cuz
they know the law and stuff. Well, I
mean, I do know attorneys. Okay. So, but
I don't know
like I just obviously no one knows
necessarily what to do in this
situation. So, do you want to ask your
parents what you should do? I don't know
honestly. Okay. Um cuz I I want you to
feel comfortable with the decision that
you
make. And I I guess if talking to your
parents, you feel like that will help
you, then um we can do that.
I don't know. I'm scared. You're scared?
Yeah. Okay. Do you want to talk to an
attorney?
I mean, they're the guys go to cost. It
does not cost anything. No. I mean, if
it doesn't, then sure. That's what I
would recommend. You kind of seem like
you're at a spot where you want them,
and I want to make sure that you make
the right decision.
Absolutely. Okay. So, what we're going
to do is hopefully the attorney phone
numbers are in here. We're going to go
in this room. Um I'm going to I'll dial
the attorney and get a hold of him and
then I'll let you talk to him in private
is the important part. So, we'll go in
here. Do they start on the phone? Yeah.
Okay. Uh, let me see. February the door
shut. Yeah, for sure. Uh, it's April
now, right? So, let's see. They go,
Sandy. So, Steve, it's the way I see it.
Hey, Martin. This is uh Sergeant Jordan.
I have a female Paige in custody for
DUI. Um she's under 21. Her PBT was
a.132, I believe. And do you have any
other questions for me? Okay. Let me put
her on the phone and I will let you guys
have some privacy.
Thank you. Talk to him and then when
you're done, just knock on the door and
I'll come get you. Steve. Steve. Yep.
I don't feel a blow. What's that? I can
do a blow. Okay. Did he answer your
questions? Yeah. Do you feel better now?
Like kind of kind of. It's nice to talk
to a lawyer though, right? A little bit.
Yeah. Okay. Um Okay. So, I need to check
your mouth again just cuz I didn't
observe you the whole time. So, go ahead
and open your mouth up. Tongue up.
Great. Is it
325? Okay. So,
um I'm guessing he told you not to
answer any questions, right? Sure.
Okay. So, if I have a whole bunch of
questions that ask you about how much
alcohol you've had to drink and stuff,
you probably don't want to answer those,
right? Okay, fair enough.
I
uh I know kind of what the attorneys
have to say. So, I'm going to fill out
this this piece of paper. It's just kind
of your personal information part of my
case. I'm going to work on that. We
basically have to wait 15 minutes from
when I check your mouth until we can do
the test. So, if uh you have anything
you want to talk about, we can I'll
gladly talk to you. Um and it doesn't
have to be about tonight or whatever.
You know,
I honestly don't know what to talk
about. You don't know what to talk
about? Well, how was your night prior to
meeting me? It was okay. Good. How was
your night? My night was
good. It was busy. Yeah. Lots of parents
and stuff in town. Oh, yeah. parents
would come visit. Yeah.
So, are you going to school at the
moment? No. Okay. I'm just working. I
can't Where do you work at? I work at
Dutch and Jimmy John's. Oh. Is Dutch
Brothers fun to work at?
Yes. And no. Cuz like when I go there,
everybody's in a great mood. I'm sure
they make you do that. Yeah. You have to
be in a great mood. it uh it just seems
like it would be fun. I don't know. I
mean, it is fun to an extent, but like
today I opened, so I was there at 4:40
in the morning. Oh my god. And I was
there until 2.
Yeah. So, it was just long. Yeah. But
other than that, it's okay. It's just
It's hard to be like peppy and talk to
people. Seems like that would be hard in
the morning. Yeah. And to do it all day
long like Yeah. And then like
your current address on Yeah.
But yeah, it's a good job. I like it. I
like how upbeat everyone is and
everything. It's just social
battery runs low sometimes. Oh, I get
it.
Yeah. Yep. It's always It's pretty hard
to have a fake smile on your face
sometimes. So, yeah. Especially when the
customers like don't really want to talk
and you have to talk to them and you're
just kind of like
I don't know what to say to you. That's
a good point. Yeah.
Okay.
Can you work tomorrow? Yes. At Dutch
Brothers. Jimmy Dogs. Oh, gotcha. Yeah.
I'm not sighing at you, by the way. I
just can't
breathe. So, you're going to be a flight
attendant. That's cool. Where do you
have any idea where you're going to work
or do you have those plans kind of
going? Um, I had just gone. I was living
in Vancouver and I finished in February
and I came back and I was planning on
working here for like a year and saving
money. Yeah. Because I want to work for
Alaska Airlines. You have to be 21 to
work for Alaska to serve alcohol and
stuff. Yeah. So, I was just working here
for a while and then I was going
to I mean, obviously I'm not 100% sure
right now, but I was planning on
somewhat being a flight attendant for
about a year or so. Mhm. seeing if I
like that, if I wasn't content with
that, I wanted to go into the pilot
program. Nice. Because if you're a
flight attendant for over a year or just
like in working for the airline Mhm.
they will help you pay for about half of
the school to become a pilot. That's
cool. They're kind of hurting for pilots
right now, too. So, that's some
motivation to uh kind of help get some
more pilots out there. Mhm.
Still got about 9 minutes or so
here work right now. So, we just got to
hang out and wait for the process. So,
um So, were you going to school at all?
College? Yeah, I went to LC for a year.
I was going for biology. Wow. Okay.
Yeah. Quite the switch up. Yeah. Hey,
that's kind of part of college though is
you kind of get there and decide is this
what I want to do with my life or not.
Yeah. I was going because I wanted to
become a vet, but at LC like the closest
thing I have to anything like that
related is bio. So, I was going but I
was like do I really want to go to
school for 4 years for this to not be
guaranteed to get like a veterinary
program? Yeah. Yeah. It's tough to get
into. Exactly. So, like there's no
guarantee and even if you get in,
there's no guarantee that you're going
to finish, which I guess every job is
like that to an extent, but yeah. 9
years. Yeah. Being in debt. It's a long
time. Long time. And a lot of money. So,
Exactly. I I don't know. I mean, I can
always do it in the future. Totally.
Yeah. You're young. You got your whole
life ahead of you. Exactly. So, so I
figured I'd rather just I've always
wanted to like Vancouver is right next
to Portland. So, I've always wanted to
live over there. So, I was like, I'd
rather just go over there and do a
little program and see how I like it.
See if it's worth it. Yeah. And you get
to see a lot of the world, too. You
know, flying. Alaska is kind of North
America, I suppose, is what they do. But
you still get to see a lot of the
country. Even if you're domestic and not
international, you still get like
majority of the privileges that they do,
free flights, discounted hotels,
cruises, and everything. So, it is a
really good deal. And your family and
like Yeah. significant others and stuff,
too. They all get the same deal. So, it
honestly is our really good program,
especially now with how expensive
everything is. Oh, man. Tell me about
it. Yeah, it's a very good idea. Yeah,
we flew to Hawaii last year and it was
crazy. We did Alaska, we have the Alaska
credit card, so we get, you know, it was
a good deal, but it's still just a lot
of money. Way too much money. Yeah.
Yeah. So, it's hard to travel ever
anymore. Even driving so much. I know.
It's just ridiculous.
So, guess we just get used to it.
So, I don't see the price I don't see
the price going down anytime. Definitely
not going to anytime soon. Yeah. But,
well, that's cool. That'll be that'll be
fun. And and like I say, this isn't the
time to say my life's over cuz I can't
be a flight attendant cuz that's not
necessarily true. Um Yeah.
So, I get that a lot cuz student we the
student population is huge and there's
students that go on to be nurses,
doctors, things like that. and they tell
me that all the time and then I see them
totally still. So yeah, you'll still
this is a bump in the road is what it
is. Um talk to your parents after this
is done or whatever. Be honest with them
and that's just coming from a parents
perspective. Don't hide it from your
parents. If they find out another way,
they're going to be way worse. Don't
hide it from them. Yeah. Yeah. It
doesn't seem like you're cheap. Yeah.
But
Yeah. But and just tell them, "Hey, I
made a mistake last night. Uh, nobody
got hurt, but I got in a little trouble.
And
um, I didn't go to jail. He's not going
to jail. Um,
it's not even about jail, though. I
spent a night in jail if that's what I
got to do. Yeah. Yeah. But I'm not going
to make you spend a night in jail cuz I
think that um, you realize like you made
a mistake and I don't think you need to
sit in jail and think over even more.
So, thank you. Um, that's our our the
main thing we do. We don't do this job
to send people to jail. We try and
correct the problem. And I think we've
corrected this problem. I don't think
this is going to happen again. And um
it's a learning experience that lots and
lots of people go through. So I should
have been arrested for DUI many times
when I was young and dumb. So um I got
lucky and uh didn't. But
um yeah, we all make mistakes. So
yeah,
the crummy part for us is we have to
take a polygraph before we do this and
tell them all the stupid stuff we did as
kids, even though we didn't get caught.
So yeah, they cuz I mean lie detector
test. Well, you have to be honest, you
know? So it's like I didn't get caught
for any of this. Why do I have to talk
about it? But they want to know. I mean,
they want to make sure cops aren't like
these secretly crazy people and stuff.
They do the best they can with that
stuff. But I'm not saying all cops
aren't crazy. There's some weird cops
out there. But I know, but it's like I
with every career, there's always going
to be crazy people no matter what. Yeah.
Yeah. We do the best we can to filter
them out through polygraphs and
psychological exams and stuff like that,
but you can't catch them all.
So, and sometimes people just change
too, I think. Yeah, they get
goofy. That's the scary part. We could
be totally normal
for all a long time and then some switch
flips in our head or wire gets crossed
and Yeah. There's no way to even tell
when it happens to No, not not yet at
least. We don't have anything that tells
us, but we can sometimes see warning
signs and things like that, but not
always.
Not always.
It would be cool if there was a way to
see. Yeah, I imagine. I mean, as
medicine advances, they'll they'll come
up with some better ideas of how to to
stop it ahead of time, but yeah, we're
not that smart yet. So, we just got to
keep it smart. In a couple years,
honestly, maybe there's a lot of smart
people out there.
Yeah. A lot of I feel like a lot of
stuff has been advancing like really
quick recently, too.
Yeah. Yeah. I mean the whole co thing
they kind of figured that out really
quick like which was great to I mean it
felt like it took a long time but in
reality when you look at it from that
aspect perspective it really didn't take
that long. Yeah. Brand new disease.
Nobody there's a couple years. Yeah.
Pretty quick. Yeah. That doesn't usually
happen but Mhm.
Um, and I think part of it, like when
that first came out, I was so scared of
that stuff, you know, cuz we didn't know
about it. We were just told it's this
horrible thing that lots of people are
going to die of. And um, then as we kind
of it we got it. Most of us caught it at
least once or twice and we're like, it's
kind of just a cold flu like thing. It's
not that not as bad. Like if you're
elderly or you have a weak immune
system, of course it's terrible. Um but
we kind of um acclimated to it, you
know, we just we got used to it and it
it isn't this big scary thing anymore,
too. Yeah. So, but yeah, I definitely
had it a couple times. I remember we'd
stop people and they would tell us they
had CO just cuz they didn't want to go
to jail or something. I used to see
videos like that and stuff and they like
have the signs that they put up the
windows. Yeah, it was it was rough for a
while there. usually like at least
personally when I had CO I definitely
was not driving. No, it I did not feel
like doing much of anything. I feel like
I was like I was like rolling on the
floor. So I was not okay. Then the whole
toilet paper thing too like I didn't
need toilet paper when I had go but that
was crazy that time. It's really
interesting look back then just like see
how people reacted to it. I know toilet
paper. And then I remember going to
Safeway and it's like the shelves were
getting bare on on food and stuff and
I'm like, "Guys, what are we doing here?
We're not going to we let's keep going
with life here. Just take buy your
normal stuff." But when people start
hoarding, you know, it just and they buy
the most random stuff. Yeah. I couldn't
get rice. Toilet paper is so random. I
feel like like Yeah, you need it, but
like I don't need that much. that the
last thing I would have ever guessed
would been toilet paper, but yeah, like
water. That makes sense. Yeah, water was
hand or the hand sanitizer. That was a
mask. Yeah, I get that stuff. Toilet
paper. I know. Toilet paper is the first
thing. And like everyone has to use it,
but like why do you need that much
toilet paper? People are just like
filling the back of their pickups with
it. It's like, oh my gosh. I bet some
people still have toilet paper for do.
Yeah. I mean, it was probably pretty
cheap back then, too. I don't want to
see money on it to be honest. Very
true. Yeah. Crazy
times. I never thought I would see
something that shut the country down
though when you think about it. Like it
we basically stopped work except for
essential
stuff. It was just I never thought I'd
see that day. But I've seen it now.
Yeah. I remember driving around like on
patrol and it's like there's no cars
out, you know, for very very few. People
were worried we're going to pull them
over cuz and cuz they're not essential
employees and like I could care less.
Like I got bigger fish to fry than that
or that like social gatherings. I'm like
I don't really care if you guys want to
get together and do stuff. Go for it,
you know? No, you're just harming each
other at that point. like and at some
point it's like we got to put an end to
this madness and people got to be able
to hang out again. You know what I mean?
We can't just hide in our houses. So, um
yeah, it was funny. We And then we get
people calling us like, "There's 10
people over at this house. You guys need
to go over there." And it's like, I'm
not going over to some house just
because there's 10 people there. Like, I
feel like there's more important things
to do in my job than that. Okay. Um we
are at 15 minutes. So, I got to enter
some information in here. Give you the
uh then you can take the two breast
samples and we'll finish a little more
paperwork and we'll be
done. Okay, I need
that my card. Where is it?
Okay.
[Music]
Oh, I think I put the
wrong 325 up there.
[Music]
Okay.
Okay, it's just going through some self
checks. Takes it just a minute or two
and then it'll have you do a breath
test. It's a pretty long breath. Okay,
so if you just take a deep breath, I'll
coach you through it. Um, and then it'll
go through some more self checks and
then I'll do another breath test and
then we'll be done.
Okay? And I won't know any results until
it prints out. Everyone's always like,
"What' I blow?" And I'm like, "I don't
know. It doesn't tell me. Once it prints
out, it'll tell us." Okay.
Okay. So, you're going to seal your lips
around the end of that and then take a
deep breath or take a deep breath in,
seal your lips around it, and blow out.
Yep. There you go. Keep going. Keep
going. Keep going. Keep going. Keep
going. Keep going. A little harder. Keep
going. Keep going. Keep going. Keep
going.
Stop. Good job. Thank you.
Okay. It'll go through. Clear clear this
tube out all the air out of it. Go
through some self checks and then we'll
have one more.
Peace.
Heat. Heat.
[Music]
[Music]
Heat. Heat.
[Music]
[Music]
Heat up
here.
[Music]
Heat up here.
[Music]
[Music]
[Music]
Okay, another deep breath and then blow
through there until I tell you to
[Music]
stop. There you go. Keep going. Keep
going. Keep going. Keep going. Keep
going.
Going. Stop.
[Music]
Yep. Heat.
Heat. Heat.
Okay. So your results are it measures it
two different ways. So the first breath
was a.122 and a.123.
Okay. Second one was a.19 and a.122. So
you went down a little bit since you've
been driving. It was a.132 when we were
out on scene. So okay, it's down a
little bit. Um still over the legal
limit. I'm going to sign this. I'm going
to provide you with a copy of this. So
Okay. Thank you.
Heat. Heat.
Okay. So, because you blew over the
legal limit, um the state of Washington,
um intends to suspend your driver's
license, okay, for at least 90 days.
Okay? Um what you can do though is you
can have a hearing to try and keep your
driver's license if you want. It's a
voluntary hearing. You don't have to
have. Uh the fee for it is
$375. Okay.
Um so, what I recommend is you're going
to have court on Monday. Okay? and I'll
go over that part with you. They're
going to assign you an attorney if you
don't have an attorney. Okay? Talk to
your attorney about this and see if this
is something that you should go through
with cuz they'll give you the best
advice as to what you should do. Okay?
But this is a piece of paper that you
fill out and you send back to them if
you do want to have the hearing. So, I'm
going to give you that with your breath
results. Any questions about that?
So, it cost 375 just to be just to have
the hearing. Um, and I think
And then does this only apply in
Washington?
Your license suspension? Yes, that is
who is going to suspend it. Now, Idaho
may if Washington does, but I don't know
the answer to that. Washington intends
to. I don't know if Idaho will. Um, you
can also if you need financial
assistance for this, um, if you're going
to apply for financial assistance, like
you can't afford the fee, you know,
because you're broke college kid, uh,
and you want the hearing fee waved, use
the financial assistance application
available at the website right here.
Okay? So, there is an option to try and
get that fee waved. Okay? Um, so what
I'd like for you to do is just sign
here. By signing here, it says, "Notice
of right to hearing. I have been given a
written notice of my right to a hearing.
This piece here, including the steps
required to obtain a hearing, and I
understand that the notice of
suspension, revocation, or denial
license will be mailed to the address of
record on file with the department of
licensing. So, it'll be mailed to your
address here. Okay. So, just sign and
date that. And today is uh 47 of 24.
Thank you.
You said 4 724.
Thank you. Yep. You need a Kleenex.
Um when I read the implied consent to
you. So I also I want to go over one
piece with you.
Um, if your driver's license permit or
privilege to drive is suspended,
revoked, or denied, you may be eligible
to immediately apply for an ignition
interlock driver's license. So, that's a
driver's license where you blow in the
thing to start your car. So, you may be
able to immediately apply for that.
Okay.
Um, is that Are you upset about the
driver's license
thing? The whole thing? Okay, I
understand. money.
It's stupid a gra. It's fine. Okay. Um,
so you have this and this. The next
thing is is you do have court on Monday.
Okay. It's going to be in KFax. You can
drive right now. Your license isn't
suspended right now. Okay. They plan on
doing it at some point. And um it says
right here, your license is valid for 30
days. Okay. So, that lets you get
through court and kind of figure out
where you're going to go. Um, but you do
have to be in Kfax. Do you know where
Kolfax is? Yes, I do. On at Monday at
3:00 p.m. Okay. And I'll go over that
with you here as soon as I fill out a
little bit of the
information. Okay. So uh oh let's do
this here.
Four.949
24
3. Okay. So this is notice of hearing
conditions of release and promise to
appear. So this applies to you because
I'm not taking you to jail. These are
rules the judge wants you to know that
he wants you to follow. Notice of
hearing. The above defendant is directed
to appear in person before the Whitman
County District Court as follows. On
040924 at 3 p.m., which is Monday, um at
the KFax office. Here's the address for
it right here. Um and so what this court
is on Monday is it's not like we're
going to have trial and see if you're
guilty of DUI. What they're the judge is
going to do is make sure you understand
what you were arrested for. He's going
to review whether or not there's
probable cause for that arrest. like
he'll see my report, see if there's
enough, and then um he'll make sure you
have an attorney in place, and they'll
kind of go on to when the next court
date would be. So, it's not that's kind
of where it is. Um and he may have some
conditions for you like no drinking,
stuff like that. Um so, um your
appearance at the above time and
location is mandatory and may not be
waved. Your failure to personally appear
for this hearing or failure to comply
with the below conditions of release
shall result in the immediate issuance
of a bench warrant for your arrest.
Conditions of release. So this is what
the judge wants you to follow until
Monday for sure. Okay. Pending this
hearing, the court has ordered that you
comply with the following conditions of
release. You shall not possess or
consume alcohol or unprescribed
controlled substances. You shall not
drive a motor vehicle without a valid
license while suspended or revoked and
without required liability insurance or
other compliance with applicable
responsibility laws. Your license is
still fine. You can still drive. You
have insurance, right, on your car.
Yeah. So, you're totally fine to drive.
Just don't drink is the big thing. Okay.
So, you get caught drinking, but between
now and Monday, the judge is not going
to be happy. I promise you that. Um,
okay. So, I'm going to sign this and
I'll print my
name
0474

back out or what, but um take a little
bit to respond to Yeah. And if I I mean,
we can give you a ride, too, if that's
easier. So, feel bad. You guys don't
have to feel bad. Um but if you want
time to call people, but you're more
than welcome to do that. I can try

answers, then sure, but I don't want to
make you guys do it if you don't have
to. Okay. Here is your keys. Do you want
to throw your Kleenex away? Thank you.

Kleenex, I don't know if you need some
