Yeah. >> Can I just get my anxiety medication? >> Yep. >> Like how fast could she get up? probably pretty quick. >> Okay, Jennifer, what I'm about to tell you is very important. So, I need you to listen to me. Okay. First of all, under arrest for DWI, the New Mexico play consent act requires you to submit to a breath test to determine the alcohol content of your blood. After you take our test, you have the right to choose an additional independent test. If you choose to take this additional independent test, you have the right to a reasonable opportunity to arrange for a physician, a licensed nurse, lab tech, or technologist who is employed by a hospital or physician of your own choice to perform an additional chemical test. The cost of this additional test will be paid for by the law enforcement agency. Do you agree to take our test? Our test is going to be the breath test. >> No. I cannot force you to take our test or test, but if you refuse, you will lose your New Mexico driver's license or non resident operating proof for one year. >> If you are convicted in court of driving under the influence, you may also receive a greater sentence because you refuse to be tested. Do you understand that? >> No. >> And with that in mind, are you going to do the breath test? >> No. >> Okay. >> What's that? >> Is there an option to go to? I can't take you to a detox place. There's none open right now. And that's just not the process. >> The process is you doing it. >> Well, I can't do that in jail. >> I do when you get out. >> What? >> Yeah, I know. I've done that, but I need like help. >> I know you do. >> I [snorts] totally agree. Don't look at me like I need help. >> I just said I totally agree with you. >> So why are you so Don't be hateful. >> I I'm what? >> Don't be hateful. >> I'm not hateful. >> Don't look at me like that. >> I'm just telling I >> told you like I've done this for like years. >> Okay. >> I'm asking you for help >> and I'm I'm actually I am helping you stay out of prison is what I'm doing >> by stopping. I need help. >> I know you do. >> So, >> but you need to do it. >> I've been there. I've I've been like with so many things like I just I I had a really bad breakup. >> You need to commit yourself to do it. >> I have been. >> I have a a person who I go to every week. I've been sober for like >> Okay, so hold on. Hold that thought for a second. I ran the machine. If you're going to comply with the breath test, now's the time to do that. If you don't do it, it's going to time out about 3 or 4 minutes. >> Detox. Please, please, please take not. >> This isn't Colorado. >> So, here's my options. No hospital people here are getting care. >> So the process is is that we take you down to the jail again >> and they book you in >> and they probably release you in the morning and then you go to detox. That's the process. >> Not going to pro. It's the weekend. I'm not going to see her in the morning. You know that. >> No. No. They they do video. You already know that she's not going to see us yet. >> They do a video arrangement. >> Is she working on Saturdays? >> I just said they do video arignment.

He's always in jail. >> Why can't you help me? Begging you for help. >> I'm okay. I am like an okay person normally. >> You normally see like educated people in this much of a mess. >> Actually, I do >> cuz I can't fight no more. Help me. If you really care as an officer, you would help me. >> I am helping you actually. >> And help me. I just can't believe we're dealing with this again. >> I'm just I'm >> I've been doing this job a long time and I'm just shocked that we're dealing with with this again. >> You know what?
