the truth lying to the police lying to the police is a crime okay I would't lie to you I promise she's already told me she had alcohol at your house at my house yes ma'am she said she drank at your house on Barn Court no she didn't she's been there for maybe 30 minutes and I've been moving a couch into my house you can go look I have a youha ma'am I don't know all I know is she told me on my video camera okay that she drank at your house she had a shot and a beer I have a a shot and a beer yes I have a roommate at my house right now I can go I can call her and I so you're saying did you do you have alcohol could she have snuck some alcohol while she was there no she was around me the whole time she smells like alcohol so I believe her and she also admits that she ran into this house over on madley court say she's been drinking yes this whole story that we're getting here was made up what house did she R into house on Wadley Court man that reported a hit and run that when she was leaving apparently from your house I promise you I don't know anything about this I don't okay all right I'm just trying to figure out what's going on is she going to go to arrested uh I don't know ma'am we're going to determine that but a lot of times when you're driving drunk and you run into things that does happen we'll see okay can you just cut it to me straight tell me what's going on I can I can handle that so going to arrest her I don't know ma'am we're probably going to do some field sobriety tests we will probably do some alcohol testing and she said that she hit a house no well yes she admitted now that she hit a house and the car at the house that was the car at the house oh yes so she did the hit and run yes drove up here what house is it on Wadley as I told you man are you going to go check that out well we've got officers there okay okay so mostly what I want from you though is just be honest with me about what you know I mean it doesn't matter to me we're going to test her right we're going to know how much alcohols in our blood I don't know why you're assuming that I would lie to you well normally when somebody's at my house drinking alcohol I know it that's what I would not drinking alcohol at my house ma'am she she I don't know whether she was or not all I know is that's exactly what she told me okay then it was she snuck it then cuz I promise you I didn't know I mean I don't know I don't know where else I don't know why she would lie about that maybe either you know so that's why I'm just checking with you to see what's going on this is ridiculous I feel like you guys are trying to get H and some kind of story yes in fact when I arrived here I was told a bunch of lies about what happened and now I'm trying to get down to the truth exactly and I'm not lying to you about what she told me so I'm just trying to it just it's a little unusual I'm not saying that's not what happened I'm just trying I'm just as confused as you are I don't on either so don't asse that I okay how how regularly do you drink I do have a drinking problem but I don't ever leave the house okay well I'm I'm not I'm not trying to do anything like that with you I'm just curious because you're you're telling me that your first drink was at 7:00 I okay if we're being honest I I would love for you to be honest with me as I haven't drank 3 days say that again I haven't drank in 3 days okay and but before this before this I was drinking every day about five shots a day plus it you know a few beers three or four beers okay and then for how long couple

was at 7:30 and you seem significantly more intoxicated than a beer and a shot tells me so have you have you had more alcohol to drink today no I earlier okay I started I had a drink at 3:00 okay but

she will be released in a couple hours in a couple hours yeah at the police department number number so yeah well I'll I'll update you in a couple hours they believe what was that are you guys a believe me or get me resources no ma'am what you need to be thinking about is that you're driving with your child in the car I know I know I'm going to get help for them I need help undo that please or uh no that actually goes over top we'll be at the police station in a few minutes so y just watch your foot [Music] face feel right walk head right towards that brown chair what the brown chair I'll get you of those cups seat will you now submit to a breath test yeah you guys said I'll be able to get picked up later tonight likely so I made a mistake when we were finishing up our our test um because the the presence of your child being in the vehicle adds additional criminal charges to the situation um endangerment reckless endangerment exactly is that a felony it is not a felony but I just have to see it for night yeah sot yeah so until what her dad can be here or something no no it's just until you can see a judge yeah um like I was saying so so CPS will be notified of the situation but your daughter's not going to get taken by CPS tonight she really good yeah yeah yeah all right so these are just some some questions we have uh 13 and 1 12 minutes before we can start the the test were you driving the vehicle yes is there anything mechanically wrong with the vehicle have you been injured or were involved in any Collision the past 24 hours have you had any alcohol the drinks since the Collision have you been drinking alcoholic beverages yes and Fireball and B Coors Banquet how much I start to new fireball 300 p.m. about two shots I don't remember than keep your hands and you're l oh sorry um I honestly don't remember I'm sorry who have you been drinking with myself my husband's where were you drinking my house and the time of your last drink um around 6:30 like 6:37 6:37 before I left or no I had a drink in my sisters dway so about seven at Barnes I'm sorry do you believe your ability to drive is affected by your alcohol usage yeah and you said you haven't been arrested for DUI before so do you feel like I've been honest with you yeah okay so the the answer to my question is is not going to cause cause you to have additional charges for why you're here um but you mentioned to me that you believe that you need help yeah um and so how many times two-part question how many times do you think you have driven intoxicated and how many times have you done it with your daughter there um I usually don't drink with my kids in the car um usually my husband's at home so um maybe just honestly one or two times I've been drinking with them but I've been trying to stop drinking and I haven't been drinking the last 3 days does your husband know he doesn't know that you have a drinking problem is he gone for long periods of time my husband four years ago okay is he usually gone for long periods of time no he all right so just like we did when we were we were in the field just as big as breath is as you can take in and then hard steady breath out stand up [Applause] and blow keep going keep going a little harder a little harder keep going keep going almost there almost there I'm sorry no it's good we just got to do it one more time but that that was a good one yep getting charge your t run too or to to my current knowledge um I got to ask my my partners a little bit more I like I said we got a we got a couple calls I any of those Bell say that again I those spell no no so your sister's going to call your husband yeah and then if I'm able to I'll call him two so after do you know his number off top of your head yeah so after we do this and I finish filling out some of this I'll let you talk to him okay if we being honest my husb been had a DUI I feel like 20 which is why he quit drinking so I really know how this whole process goes but you know how was was he was he arrested through us no no no we just moved here in October okay from Republic uh no we moved here from Grand cie okay I'm just I'm from Republic but he is from Grand kolie so [Applause] us be pretty disappointed since you know I know what this looks like on both sides of it MH well I mean he's been four years sober so I mean like I was saying hopefully this is the beginning of your sobriety and then you guys can just keep each other strong yep definitely something that's easier to do with somebody that you care about yeah I agree and if you're having a hard time really wanting something and he's just like telling you like absolutely not you can't tell him you don't know how this feels yeah right yeah so def knows and he wants to see he wants to say over and I'm sure he'd definitely help me with anything that I need I just said me to be honest with him CU he's beside his concerns and he's asking me and I told him no you know multiple times and I just the truth is going to help yeah you know get some help breath in as big as you can and blow keep going keep going keep going a little bit more keep going keep going keep going you to see you can sit on do you know about how many hours from here it'll be do up to like oh I I don't um it's it's been an oddly busy week okay and so that's going to depend on other calls
