Woman Arrested for DUI after Picking Up Kids at School

The 42-year-old mother of two elementary school aged children was arrested and charged for driving under the influence and child neglect in Orange County on Monday.

According to the police report, the suspect was pulled over for allegedly running a red light in a pickup truck. Deputies allege they immediately smelled alcohol on her breath. She appeared intoxicated, had bloodshot eyes and slurred speech, and was driving barefoot.

The suspect said she was not drunk, just tired from drinking a lot the day before. She claims she consumed nine beers on Saturday and several more on Sunday. However, she said she had a beer before leaving to pick up her children at school.

The suspect refused to take a field sobriety test and was placed in the backseat of a patrol car where she allegedly passed out. Breath tests taken at the hospital returned results of 0.244 and 0.256.

She is currently being held in Orange County Jail.
