I will be talking. If you don't like talking, links are in the description box. As you saw, it's Nurses Gone Wild today. So, the first one we're starting with is nurse tries to commandeer cop car as a taxi goes wrong. There's a flip over the shoulder on this one. Um when we're done, we will go over charges, what the prosecution has to prove, what the defense will maybe try to challenge. So, we'll start. Unexpected twist, drunk nurse causes multiple crashes, then flees the scene. She's even worse off how drunk this how drunk she is. I think y'all sent this to me. Yes, at minimum reckless driving, too. Yes. >> Officers arrive after reports of a hit-and-run, only to find a driver who can't keep her timeline straight and admits to drinking vodka before work. As contradictions pile up and evidence surfaces, this body cam footage captures the moment a simple crash becomes a serious DUI arrest. >> Hey, how's it going? Look, can I see that? >> This is when we had her all blocked in after she had hit us a couple times. >> Okay, dope. Yeah. >> And this is about 5 minutes long, but this was when I had her the cars had her all blocked in when she was on the phone. No. Um yeah, there you go. >> Where Where did this all happen? On the road? >> That was at 27th. He was on the phone with the department at the time. We all had her blocked in. I started videoing her pretty much when she went halfway across the road. >> she backed up into you? >> No, she was behind us and she kept bumping us. >> I'm just going to stop. >> Which is why I'm like, why doesn't she leave? There was no damage. >> I mean, but it was just a bump. >> Who can I send this to? What's your number? >> you my email. >> Okay. >> Juliette uniform 284 tango, J U 284T. And she hit >> It should be mandatory for the nurses, people in medicine, people that hold licenses that, you know, can definitely affect someone's life directly. As soon as they're arrested for being impaired, they need to have a mandatory drug treatment program. >> Anybody else? >> She hit the guardrail over >> But not not another person. >> Yeah, no, no, no, no. >> Okay. >> The car's all had her blocked into and she pulled out. >> It's crazy how she took off like >> Oh my goodness. >> She She And then she hit a guardrail. >> Jerked the car out from underneath the guardrail. >> Where Where is the guardrail? It's right there? >> of the street. >> Is it Is it damaged? Yeah. >> Yeah, it's damaged. >> I heard it in my house. I I was two blocks away. >> I'll grab it in a minute. Um I'm going to have somebody else come out and get you guys' information. I just got to do this investigation, okay? >> Okay. Do we know if we're both in this car? >> Uh hey, was he with you guys? >> I guess I do got a little damage. Yeah, I know. >> No, no, no. No, no. >> Where's your >> I was I was I was on 35th and 16th. I was in my house and got to be on my my doorbell camera. But I mean, I heard the bang. It was like such a hard hit. She hit the guardrail. I was like ran out of my house. >> Oh, she hit the guardrail, too? >> Yeah. Oh, yeah. She smashed the guardrail. >> Yeah, it's >> When that happened, we were down at the other light and that's when he was saying to the your um communications dispatch, we think cops have her cuz we saw the white car this way across that road. >> And she was leaking fluid. >> got to be leaking fluid. >> Yeah, definitely is. That's another extensive repair. >> She couldn't even back in her driveway. I have that video of that, too, her trying to turn into a driveway. >> 60 and then you saw her hit the guardrail? >> I didn't see her hit the guardrail. I came out after she hit the guardrail, but I've seen her jerk the car out and >> So you saw her pulling the car out from the >> It's like mangled like this in the in the underneath the guardrail. >> So after she hit it, you came out, you saw her in her car >> Yes. >> and underneath the guardrail guardrail and then you saw her >> seen him on the phone and I thought they might have gotten to an accident, but >> And then you saw her back out and come down here? >> Yeah. >> And then pull into that address? >> She was struggling coming down the road, too, cuz the car wasn't running right. >> He did about a 50 point turn. >> Like the way he was driving It almost makes you feel like she has no insurance or doesn't have a valid driver's license. >> No, I think she's drunk just by my 2 seconds of interacting with her. >> What did you observe happen? >> Uh everything from her pulling off after hitting them. So >> After she pulled off after hitting them, you saw Okay. You saw >> Cuz they had they had her blocked in and then the first car left and she was able to squeeze by and then she came down she made a hard left turn. That's how she ran into that and then I saw her get stuck cuz I pulled over to the side tried to help her but she wasn't trying to get help. She came down the road back down the driveway. >> So you actually you're the one you actually saw her hit the guardrail. >> Yeah. I got it all on dash cam, too. >> Is there a way we can get a copy of that dash cam? >> I can definitely >> Can I give you an email or something like that? Would you be able to send it to us? >> I'm pretty sure there's an SD card in it. >> Okay, perfect. >> But yeah, if you go over there, you'll see her fluids and her under the bumper. >> Okay. Thank you, you'll be back on one. >> That's not me. They muted the video right here. >> With witness statements locked in and video evidence backing up the crash sequence, police turn their attention to the woman behind the wheel. But as officers begin asking simple questions, her shifting story and physical condition reveal this incident is far more serious than it first appeared. >> Uh is there anybody else in the house? >> My dog. >> Okay, why don't you tell me about what happened with the vehicle crash? >> Uh I guess I banged into her. I didn't even realize it. >> So, then we'll >> It'll unblur again. They must have that rule where they can't the body cams can't show inside of a person's residence, but they're going to have her step outside, so it won't be like this the whole time. >> Why didn't you stop? >> I didn't stop. >> In your driveway you stopped. >> No, I stopped prior to that. >> And then what happened? >> me not to stop and come back to my driveway. Stop. >> She told you to come back to your driveway? How would she know where your driveway is, ma'am? You're not making sense, Diana. >> No, she told me >> She's on her feet. Okay, sorry. Why don't we step outside? After you. >> So, where are you coming from? >> Work. >> Work? Where you work at? Cleveland Clinic? >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> I'm a nurse. >> Did you just get off? >> Yeah. >> Do you work overnight? >> Yeah, day shift. >> Okay. Oh, okay. All right. Um >> You said day shift. What time did you get off work? >> Oh, I got off at 7:00 to 7:00. >> 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.? >> Yes. >> Okay, what time do you think it is now? >> It's not time to get off. >> So, if you just got off work and you work from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., how did you just get off work? >> I just left. >> And she's still got her badges on, y'all. So, this one we got to we got to take it that she's a nurse on this one. >> Uh-huh. So, you just left even though >> They knew I was leaving, though. >> Why did you leave? >> Because I wasn't feeling good. >> Yeah. >> I was vomiting. >> Uh-huh. >> I wasn't feeling good. >> You seem a little intoxicated to me, Diana. I'm a little concerned about how much that you've had to drink. What is it that you're under the influence of right now? >> Uh I Maybe I had vodka tonight. >> Vodka? >> Yeah. How much vodka did you have? >> What time was that? >> 10:00. >> 10:00? >> Mhm. >> While you were at work? >> No. >> And tell them what pills you took, too. Diana, let them know cuz it ain't just alcohol. >> Okay, so >> to 7:00. >> You had it at 10:00 a.m. before you went to work at 7:00 a.m. That doesn't make sense. >> No, it's 10:00 to 10:00. >> Okay, you said 7:00 to 7:00. >> No, it's 10:00 to 10:00. >> Okay, so your shift is from 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. And just before going into work, you had a double shot of vodka, which is probably why you got sent home place, right? >> didn't send me home. I just left. >> Yeah, because you shouldn't be drunk at work. >> How did she appear to the people at work? Cuz either she's just not admitting they did tell her to go home, and they better be firing her if they told her to go home and they saw her acting like this. Or they just let her work through the day or whenever she felt like going home cuz she got a hangover, whatever she got from throwing up. Cuz you have to notice this is not normal, especially when you have to be alert in a medical environment, I would think. >> That's probably a really bad idea. You shouldn't be drunk behind the wheel, either. You know, your pants are on backwards. Okay, so Diana, question that I have for you. I noticed there's a prescription bottle on the floorboard of your vehicle. >> Okay. >> Um you mentioned anxiety. >> Yes. >> Do you take any medication for that? What is it that you take? >> Adderall. >> Okay, um Adderall for anxiety? >> They have to notify these jobs when stuff like this happens. They have to cuz they need to go back and check patient charts. I don't I don't know if they do or don't. It's probably not a hard-and-fast rule, but I need them to notify these people's jobs because somebody's suffering from horrible mistakes that this woman made and the other nurses made if they were actually nurses cuz some of them know some of them. >> Okay, I guess I misunderstood. I didn't realize Adderall was taken for anxiety. >> Well, it's for ADHD. >> Okay, so and then the lorazepam is for anxiety. Yes. Okay, so you What time did you take your lorazepam? >> It was very early in the morning, like 4:30. >> What were you doing at 4:30 up at 4:30 in the morning? You wake up at 4:00 so you can go to work at 10:00. >> Yeah. >> Okay. And what about the Adderall? What time did you take your Adderall? At 4:00 in the morning? And then just before 10:00 a.m. Did you show up to work on time today? And who did you check in with when you went to work? You have like a time clock or something? Okay. Um and when you clocked in, what time was it? >> 10:00. >> 10:00 a.m.? >> 9:44. >> Okay, so sometime before 9:00, around 9:00, you had a double shot of vodka, is that what you said? >> way before. >> Okay, well, you said >> Yeah. >> You Okay, you're confusing me because you said it was at 11:00. But then I said, "Well, wait a minute, you went to >> in. No, it was way before that. >> Okay, so what like when you took your medication? >> It's like 8:00. >> 8:00 >> morning. >> When you took a double shot of vodka. What's going on that you're taking double shots of vodka at 8:00 in the morning? >> I'm depressed. >> Okay. I mean, here's the thing. What's your last name, Diana? >> It's 15 Viero. >> 15 Viero, a registered owner, Diana? Could you please add her to the call? Okay, so Diana, my question to you is can let's go ahead and step forward. Right there is fine. I don't need you standing in this hot sun. My question to you is um it seems to me like in order to be a nurse which you said that you're a nurse >> I am. I love my job. >> Right, in order to be a >> very much >> you must have somewhat of >> ability >> your >> What? What profession is she in? I feel like that that's what they blanking out. What profession is she? I know she's a nurse, but you know what I mean, like her specialty? Cuz I feel like that's what they're blanking out. I want to know. Um Gwen said they need to check the Yeah, the the drug inventory where she works. They do because we have seen I don't know if we watched them together yet, but we have definitely seen nurses that steal medication. Um and they be Didn't one nurse like stick the IV in themselves and they would just fill the IV bag up with saline or something like that? The Yeah, they got to check their inventory for sure. That's too much. >> life together, right? >> But right now me looking at you you do not have it together, right? You're intoxicated. You're under the influence of pills that you shouldn't combine with alcohol. >> Well, you you do pills. You're just prescribed them. >> Lorazepam >> Right, and Adderall. >> Adderall Correct. >> Right, so lorazepam and Adderall which you took today and neither one of them are you supposed to mix with alcohol, but you did before you got in your car to drive to work. Then you struck a vehicle. Right? >> Correct. >> And you left the scene of that vehicle and then you struck several other things alongside of 16th Street just before 34th Avenue when you turned in here because we have a second person who saw you hitting the barriers. >> Wow, that's awesome. Sorry. >> It's okay. >> It's >> I understand that wasn't intentional. >> in like a couple of days. >> So, on top of the pills and the alcohol, there's also a lack of sleep. >> Very lack of sleep. >> Okay. >> Okay, so real quick, okay? We have to do two different investigations here, okay? One is a crash investigation. No criminal crash investigation, okay? This is not a criminal investigation. This is a civil investigation because of the fact that you were in an accident, okay? So, what you tell me this cannot be used in sense of a criminal investigation. Do you understand that? Okay. So, what happened with that blue car? Obviously, there's some damage to your car. >> I don't know. >> Did you rear-end that car? >> I don't recall that at >> You don't recall? Okay. You've never seen that car before? >> Nope. >> You don't know what happened off 16th and 37th when they were trying or 20th and 16th and 27th Avenue when they were trying to talk to you. No? >> No. >> What about a guardrail? Did you touch a guardrail? Did you hit a guardrail? So, you don't know So, how did your car How did your car get like this? >> Just parking in front of people. >> No, how did it get all messed up? >> I parked in front of people. Like maybe I banged into something. >> Well, that's more than banged in. That's like That's some damage, you know what I mean? So, do you don't know how that happened? >> Maybe at the hospital. >> At the hospital? So, you went to work, you came back and you noticed that that was there? >> It wasn't there. >> No, so what do you think it was Where did that happen? I'm trying to figure out where that happened. >> No, I I could tell you honestly. I would tell you. >> All right, no worries. No worries. What's your I just got to figure it out. >> I don't want to be like a liar. >> No, I get it. I'm just trying to figure out what happened to your car. All right, that's all. >> Yeah, I just don't want to go to [ __ ] jail. >> Okay, so now, um crash investigation is over, okay? You can't tell me much about the crash, fine. Are you injured? Do you need medical attention? >> injured. >> Okay. So, next changing hats, okay? I'm now doing a driving under the influence investigation, Okay? Do you understand what that means? This is now a criminal investigation. Okay? So, I have to do my job as a law enforcement officer and do a criminal investigation for your driving under the influence. Okay? So, what that means [snorts] is are you willing to do uh standardized field sobriety exams? So, you're willing to submit to some exams to see if I can if I feel comfortable with you behind the wheel. Um do you have any medical impairments whatsoever? >> I have hypertension. >> Hypertension? Do you take medicine for hypertension? >> Hypertension. >> Do you take medicine for hypertension? You do? >> one medicine. >> You take one medicine. Are you on it right now? >> Uh this morning. >> Okay, but you What was the last time you took it? >> This morning. >> This morning? Around what time? >> 9:00. >> 9:00. Okay. Um besides those glasses, uh do you wear any other sort of glasses? What kind of glasses are these? Are these eye I know, but are they like to see closer to >> They clearly see close and and and uh far. >> And far. Okay, so just normal normal glasses. Do you um What about your shoes? You comfortable with your shoes? >> No. >> Okay. All right, so what we're going to do is my partner here is going to angle her car and we're going to walk in front of it. Okay? We're going to do a series of standardized exercises, okay? To see if your facilities are impaired or not. Okay? Does that sound good to you? Okay. All right, so like I explained to you before, >> So, now >> No, hold on. Like I I explained to you before, okay? That we're I am now changing the investigation from a crash investigation to a criminal investigation. Okay? Are you still willing to do those exercises for me that I asked you? Okay. So, thank you. >> Just the way she fell from when she was leaning back on the garage door and fell into the woman officer, I think Okay. Why do cops still do the test? Is it just to go ahead and not have the prosecution or the defense try to get that thrown out? Because on body cam she already didn't have balance and she's disoriented, and she's I don't I don't want to say slurring cuz I kind of wasn't paying attention to if she's slurring or not, but her memory's horrible. Like she can't recall things. She can't keep things straight. So, is that still prudent to still have her perform a field sobriety test? Like is it necessary or can you honestly go ahead and show she has signs of impairment? But I guess because of the arrest you still have to maybe, but when they I don't know, when they refuse you still arrest them too. >> So, are you wearing any glasses or contacts besides the glasses that you have on your ear right now? No, okay. Um, first I'm going to check your eyes, okay? So, if you let's get down to here to shade so you can see. Why don't we stand Why don't we stand right here and just face me? >> You can leave them on. >> You can leave them on for now. Just stand at the end of that crack there and just feet together. Feet together. Feet together. Hands at your sides. Fill. All right. >> I noticed that your shoe is untied and I don't want that to be a problem. Let's go ahead and get your shoe tied. >> I was just about to say when she tried to tie her shoe she going to tip over. She has no balance. >> I was going to check her eyes. >> I got it. >> I'm going to check her eyes and then we'll call it there. All right, Miss Anna. So, can you look at the tip of this pen? >> Yes. >> Okay. Can you actually keep your eyes are your glasses are a little dirty. Do you mind if I take them off for you? >> Nope, I don't >> All right. Okay. So, can you look at the tip of my pen? Look at the tip of my pen, okay? With your eyes and your eyes only, hey, I need you like I asked you to do, I need you to keep your feet together and hands by your side, okay? You keep your feet together and hands by your side, okay? With eyes, and your eyes only, follow the tip of the pen, okay? Do you understand what tip of the pen is? Can you touch the tip of the pen with your finger? Okay. Follow the tip of the pen, okay? Hey Dana, I need you to follow with your eyes, and your eyes only, okay? Tip of the pen, with your eye. >> Her whole body is following that pen. >> Just your eyes only, okay?

Can you stand feet together with your hands to your side? Thank you. Hands to your side. Thank you. >> Wait, wait, wait. Sorry, sorry, sorry. I don't I can do that. I can do it. >> No, it's okay. We can move on to the next one. You're good, okay? If you We're going to try this one, okay? If you can't do this, we should move on to the next one, okay? So, we're going to do the walk and turn, okay? Can you try it? >> Yeah. >> Okay. So, place your left foot on the line. So, this is going to be like Can you see this line? Do you see this line? >> Left line? >> No, no. Do you see this line? First, answer me this. Do you see this line? You see it all the way back there and forth? Okay. So, you see the line. With your foot, place your left foot on the line, okay? So, we're going to be saying left foot on the line, okay? And then, put your right heel against the toe of your left foot. Yeah. And then, put your right heel against Put your right heel. Okay. No, it's fine. >> How about I show you? Watch it. So, this foot, and then this foot directly in front, just like this, heel to toe, okay? >> Can you do that? >> Just one after the other? >> No, we're not going to do that yet. I just need you to do what I'm doing right now. Can you do this? >> Yep. >> Okay, go ahead do it. And And you got to stay like that. Don't try to walk.

Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to talk to a lawyer and have them present while you are being questioned. If you cannot afford to hire a lawyer, one will be appointed to represent you before any questioning if you wish one. Okay? Do you understand these rights I have read to you? You don't understand them? You want me to read them to you again? >> Am I being arrested? >> No, hold on.

Anything you say can and will be used will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to talk to a lawyer and have them present while you are being questioned. If you cannot afford to hire a lawyer, one will be appointed to represent you before any questioning if you wish one. Do you understand these? Okay. So, what did you have to drink today? How much [clears throat] did you have to drink? >> [laughter] >> Hey, talk to me. >> Two double shots. >> Here's the thing, and I told y'all this before, but I'm still going to say it again. She's making bad decisions and going to work drunk, driving home drunk, wrecked into a a lot of cars, a lot of hit-and-runs happening. Thank goodness she didn't kill somebody. Um she is okay to make up lies about when she worked, and she couldn't keep it straight, but she was still trying to make up lies. But, she's sober enough to realize Oh my god, I'm being read my rights. Why can't that be clicked in to not make these decisions in the first place? >> Two Two double shots? Where did you get them from? >> not much. >> Where did you get them from? >> Walgreens. >> Walgreens? Yeah, is it on the way from work? Okay. But you said you got off work at what time? 12:00. Okay, so first you told me 7:00, then you told me 11:00, now you told me 12:00. >> It was 11:00, then it was 12:00. >> Okay, so you worked a little bit overtime. And then you stopped at Walgreens. >> It was 10:00 and 10:00. And she got there and she >> Okay. >> left because she >> So, did you take any other medication or not? It's just the double shots. >> She actually does take medication, which we discussed earlier. >> want to take any medication. >> lorazepam. >> Okay. >> And Adderall, which she said she took around 4:00 in the morning. >> right. All right, so right now, Diana >> And then she said she had >> you are getting arrested for driving under the influence, okay? >> I wasn't driving. >> Yes, you were. We have We witnessed this with you there, okay? Right now you're getting arrested for driving under the influence. Do you understand that? >> No. >> 4:14 10% >> Why am I getting arrested >> your daughter so we can not have to >> Omar said, "I hope she has good insurance." Do you think Do the companies I would feel like they would void your insurance if the wreck was caused cuz you were drinking or under a substance you knew you not supposed to drive and and do that? >> deal with this out at the gym. >> 10:15, Diana. >> What time Why am I getting arrested when I wasn't even driving? >> You were driving. >> Where do you want your necklace or ID? >> I wasn't even driving. >> That's what she's trying to do. >> Yeah. Um are you BTO? >> to drive. >> Are you Are you Okay. >> I wasn't trying to drive. >> You were in that little car there. >> What began as a series of collisions and conflicting testimonies ultimately led to the arrest of the a driver, highlighting the dangers of combining alcohol with prescription drugs while driving. As the investigation concluded, officers sealed off the scene, collected evidence, and arrested the driver, bringing the day's chaotic events to a close. >> Ooh, wee. I'm going to get her charges and then we're on last video after her. Oh my god. Noir says she's so drunk she can't focus to the two voices talking to her. That's true. I wonder if this is the first time she's been caught. That's a good question. Yes, y'all did. Don't try to act like you didn't do anything to go in time out. Don't do that. >> [laughter] >> Y'all know exactly what y'all did. Okay. That Oh, she sure did. She lost her balance getting into the car. All right. Yeah, and then she ended up I didn't drive at all. Come on. It's That's Ooh, she's dangerous. Okay. For the nurse that had the multiple crashes who we just watched, one of her charges was the DUI, which I won't read DUI again because we've done a lot of DUIs today. Next charge, leaving the scene of a crash involving property damage, second-degree misdemeanor. Prosecutors generally must prove in a crash resulting in damage to a vehicle or other property, and the defendant knowingly failed to immediately stop at or return to the scene, and she failed to provide the information or assistance required by law. Possible defense challenges, did the defendant realize a collision had occurred? She didn't, but that's because she was gone. She was gone. Uh was was she attempting to reach a safe location before stopping? Did confusion or panic contribute to the defendant leaving the scene? Mhm. Okay, leaving the scene of a crash involving injury, and I'm just going to read the extra defense challenge on this one. And the obviously it's a crash resulting in injury, then it's kind of like the same one up above for me. And then the challenge Let me see. Did the defendant know or should she reasonably have known that someone was injured? Was she aware that the crash involved another person who needed assistance? Did she leave because of panic rather than an intent to avoid responsibility? I wonder When when can you say cuz the panic to me comes from the fact that you didn't want to get in trouble, so you tried to leave and not get caught. So, I wonder how how a defense attorney would play that one. Like, it was panic, but they they weren't um they had to leave. They weren't trying to avoid responsibility. Reckless driving, second-degree misdemeanor. The prosecution would have to prove the the defendant drove a vehicle and she drove with a willful or wanton disregard for the safety of persons or property. Possible defense challenges A defense attorney may challenge Did she make a driving mistake rather than consciously disregard the safety of others? Were road or traffic conditions a significant factor in the collisions? Does the evidence show negligence rather than the heightened level of recklessness required by law? All right, and then we're on to our last video. Oh, wait. Oh, no, I got two videos. My I might have false called. Wait. Oh, I didn't Did I not put the I have another video. Hold on. It's this woman, but there was one Oh, yeah. This is This is We have two videos. This is the second to last. This one is moments before registered nurse attacks cops, then cries for her mom.
