After that, you're going to have a mandatory court and issued a citation, a ticket. Okay. All right. Do you have any other questions? Anything after that? You're going to have a court date and it's going to be in the court's hands. What I need from you is just to take a breath to calm down. All right. We also have another option for you. We can either tow the vehicle or we can lock it up and park it here. Your choice. You're in possession of it. You want me to leave it here? Wherever I want. No, we'll go to a showyard. You guys want to So, do you want it towed or do you want us to lock it and park it here? Those are your only I would rather I just I I would rather have it anywhere that is safer, I guess. So, you don't want it on the side of the road here? Uh, no. All right, we'll tow it then. Well, also, um, like do I have to like stay overnight? Like what? Ma'am, you are going. Do you understand anything? I have said it three times. I know. I just You're going home now. There's not. Unless you do something stupid. I know. I know. I I'm I'm sorry. I'm just This is never happening. I'm just really confused and I'm overwhelmed. If you just listen to us, we've already told you like three or four times what's happening. I know. I'm just My nerves are All right. Well, at this point, you're going to take a seat in the car. Okay. And you can know that you're going to go home. Sunday. Come on. Let's have a seat. Yeah. I have to you don't have to do nothing right now. We're currently 2008 Mazda green color. Go ahead and sit back. Sit back. Did she understand the difference between parking it and towing it? Maybe we should ask her one more time. I don't think she understand. I I explained to her like three times what? Yeah, I know. I think she's just pretty messed up on whatever whatever she's on, ma'am. Okay, just in simple terms here. Um, I'm doing anything your vehicle. Yeah. Okay, we have two options. We can either tow it. It's going to go to a yard and you're going have to pay to retrieve that vehicle. Going to cost a bunch of money, probably like three or 4 hund bucks. or we can lock it up and bring the keys back with us and then your parents can come get it or something. You have 24 hour 48 hours to re retrieve the vehicle. Now, I'm not saying that someone doesn't come through, bust out your window, and take your belongings, but you never know, right? That's why I'm giving you the option of it being towed or we lock it up and park it. I can do either one. Um, god damn. Um, I guess I'll just uh Oh my god, it's so horrible to say that. I'll just lock it up and not do anything. So, you don't want me to tow it? I don't think so. No. Okay. All right. We're going to grab uh your purse and phone and wallet and stuff and bring that with us. All right. Is there anything else in the vehicle that you would like to have? Yep. We'll grab that. My phone. Your phone? Yep. I don't think there's anything else though. Okay. We'll be back with you shortly. Stand facing that fire [Applause] extinguisher. First left and then another left into that room right there. Sorry. Listen. Oh my god. I'm just scared. I'm sorry. from up here and then finish out here. You are now under arrest for 45119 A1A operating vehicle under the influence of alcohol, a drug or combination of them. If you refuse to take any chemical test required by law, your Ohio driver will just be suspended immediately. You don't have to pay a fee to have it reinstated. you take a chemical test and you have an independent chemical test taken on your own defense. So, what that means is I'm going to offer you a chemical test since you have no priors. If you refuse the chemical test, I'm about to offer chemical test about to offer. It's going to be a one-year suspension on your license automatically starting tonight. If you take the test and you're found out the over the legal limit based on the prior, your license is going to be suspended for 90 days. So, the tests I'm going to be offering you are a breath sample and urine sample. Are you taking those tests? I just say yeah. Right. I I just explained to you what happens if you don't and what happens if you do. You understand what happens if you don't. Your license is suspended for one year. If you do, you're over the legal limit of whatever is in your body. It's 90 days. Do you do you understand what I'm saying? Yes. I see. Okay. So I I can't tell you what this is, right? Yeah, I'll go ahead and do this. You're going to do both tests? Yeah. Okay. Female officer is going to do the second test. Does that make sense? Yeah. All [Music] right. Deep breath in. Blow it out till you hear the tone stop. Tight seal line. Okay. I'll tell you when it stops. It's going to be about 10 seconds. Got a little hard. You got here top hard. Go ahead and give a break. So, tight seal, you know, firmly grasp it and then blow hard as hard as you can. Just like that. Keep going for 10 seconds. Should be enough. I don't know if my phone's enough for that. Sorry. We'll have to do that one more time. We do it twice and then they're going to get the other test going. Okay. Okay. We want about 10 seconds. We're in the air. Okay. As far as you can breathe in. Keep going. Keep going. Halfway there. All right. So, you're 17 for the age of 21. All right. The legal limit is 08. You're seven times the limit. You understand that? Someone read this to me. Independent of any penalties or sanctions imposed upon your present in any section of the revised code will enhance your driver's license or commercial driver's license permit or non-resident operating code is not suspended. The suspension takes effect immediately. The suspension will last at least until the initial appearance on the charge which will be held within 5 days after the date of this arrest or the issuance of citation to you. You may pay the suspension at the initial appearance before the court that hears charges against you that results from the arrest or during the period of time in the 30 days after that initial appearance. So basically what that means is you're going to have an important date like I mentioned your car right it's going to be within 5 days it's going to be this Wednesday calendar and that's when you're going to talk to the court about some drivers but as of right now your driver license suspended you understand yes I'm going to get some paperwork done this stuff ready get your phone back to you said you wanted to call your boyfriend tonight to get Yes. I just had a um I'm sorry. I don't I'm sorry. I don't mean to cry. I just had a If Yeah, if I can't I just had a um question about insurance. Do you start to tell us a little bit of the truth, but you were still lying a lot? Way more. That's way more than two. Way more. Which I mean, we we already saw the evidence in the car like that indicated more than two, but it's okay. Um, but for you, the legal limit is a 0.02. You're like seven times the legal limit for a 20-year-old. Okay. That's a high tier test for It's a high tier test for adults, which is irresponsible and ridiculous. You got to make better decisions and better choices. Let's say you're in college, got a whole life ahead of you. Mistakes like this made tonight cause people to lose their lives and you got your future ahead of you. Okay? Like I said, it's not your life isn't over or anything, but that like I hopefully this is a wakeup call, right? And you go repeat. You're going to have consequences for your actions. But this this doesn't this ain't anything that you can't get over and move on. Okay. But you know, you keep going down the road. You weren't even going the right direction. First of all, it's not the way to Milford. So, I don't even know if you even knew where you were out there. Those combinations like that, you weren't wearing your seat belt. All it takes is you going down the road 30 miles per hour and you're going faster than that. You hit something, you get ejected from the vehicle, you die. Or you hit somebody else, they die. That's the reality of it. So, we're not going to sit here and harp on you all day. You are an adult, right? Okay. You'll you'll get over this and you'll move on and you'll you'll do better things in life, right? But bad combination, marijuana, alcohol on top of your medication, your depressants. You got to make better choices. That's what it comes down to. Each and every single day, you got to make choices for your lives and everybody else's. I'm so sorry. Okay, we understand that. We can see that. So, our main concern is getting you home safe. Who are we going to call? Just please just please call my boyfriend. Well, I'm not we're not going to call. Okay. You're going to call. Okay. Well, you were going to him, so that that gives me a little bit of concerns. Why didn't he come to you since you've been drinking and nothing? We're going to He doesn't have a car. Okay. Well, how's he going to come get you? Is alcoholic dad car. Okay. No. Okay. He has a mom. Thank you. Okay. Cuz if he comes here, I'll arrest him. For who? The dad. He's an alcoholic. Okay. And the boyfriend is not an alcoholic. Thank you. Well, he hasn't been drinking tonight. Just make sure that cuz it'd be a shame if he came here. Am I allowed to get on it, sir? Yeah, you are. You probably should call your parents because they're going to find out about this sooner than later. My phone is dead. Tonight I only had two twisted teeth. You had more than two. Three. No, there's no way. You are seven times the legal limit for underage. There's There's no way. You're over two times the adult. I had three chests. Really? No shots, no vodka, nothing extra. in the twisted teeth. Not that I know of. I know you're 20, but you definitely shouldn't be drinking anything ever again, man. This is going to be your test result right here. This is going to be your citation. So, you're going to have a mandatory court appearance on the 26th of September at Claremont Municipal Court. It's going to be at this address. It's a mandatory appearance. You cannot miss it. If you fail to appear, you're going to have a warrant out for your arrest. Okay? You understand that? Yeah. Just me, right? What do you mean just you? Like I don't have to have any like parent or anything. Just me. Just you. Okay. If you have any questions for the court, you can call them at this phone number. This is the court web address where you can look up your case information if you want to see updates. Out of the citation, you're going to be cited for the original reason I pulled you over, which is marked lanes when you left your lane, not wearing a safety belt, and then the OVI, both the main charge, and then being over the per se limit. Okay? And then you're going to re receive a citation for under possession of marijuana as well. It's going to have the exact same court information and whatnot. So you appear on the same court as well. Okay. Do you have any questions for me? Yes. Questions? Questions? I guess it's about adulting. You're younger than me. That's far along. One year. No way. Years old. Really? All right. I'm going to question my just asking me do I need to like bring anything or so you either plead guilty to the charges or not guilty and then they'll set it out. Typically people getting an attorney. It's a misdemeanor in the first degree offense. So, it's the highest of misdemeanor offenses. It's not felony, but basically, you'll have your court date and then go through everything. Like I like I usually like do everything like with my parents, but obviously they can help you. But this is my fault and I don't want to get them involved. Well, they're going to find out about it regardless cuz they cover your insurance, right? Yeah. I mean, that alone, your insurance is going to probably see this and your rates are just going to you're going to be an atrisisk. It's just going to raise. Yeah. Yes. I know my parents, if I did something like this, they would want to know like probably like the hour of, let alone whenever you're planning on telling them, right? It's going to [ __ ] kill me. Holy [ __ ] Which is deserved. If there's one thing I've learned about family is, yeah, they they're quick to uh hold you accountable, but they're also very quick to forgive, too. Yeah. Like they'll probably just be thankful that their baby girl get to come home safe tonight, right? It's got to rip off the band versus the ladder, which could have been a lot worse. I just like, yeah, you probably want it to come from you though rather than your insurance or something else, right? So, just rip off the mandate and just tell them. I can't believe you're 21. That's crazy. We're at that point where we got to start doing things on our own, right? I know. You just don't look like it. All right. Well, I have everything for you. This is your purse and your belongings. The purse to your boyfriend. Okay. Let's get you out of here. Your cell phone and charger. Do you have it out of out of the ground? Yeah. All right. Cool. [Music] This has her keys in it. Obviously, don't give them back to her. Don't go back to the vehicle tonight. And she I mean, don't drive under suspension. Okay. Listen to your initial forbearance. You can ask for those privileges back. Have someone else go pick up your vehicle who still has their driver's license. Okay. Do I get that or? No. All right. All right. You say good luck with your kids. Good luck with your kids. Appreciate you picking her up. [Music]
