Only thing I comented on was why it took so long to break the news she was in a county unmarked car? That was not her responsibility to report. It was the higher up officials at the OCSD's duty. I guess their excuse will be it was an ongoing investigation.

If you're an executive officer out in a sheriffs unit driving drunk & busted this should be an instant demotion , assigned to a desk position indefinitely,loss of license & have to attend dui school.

She'll probably get her license suspended for six months and can only drive to and from work and her AA classes. Plus she will be on informal probation for at least three years.

The comment on the "get out of jail free" card was in reference to the, (As I understood it), the previous post about the OC sheriff getting into a collision with another car while driving and seemingly it was swept under the carpet. Very little, if anything was reported. Info is sketchy, I am not sure about details since there is no available info to the serfs.

This is not DUI story related, but just Thursday I was stopped at a corner where the light had just turned green and I was turning right. An OCSD vehicle blew through the red light w/o lights and ended up next to me at the next stop light where she had to turn left against traffice .... she waited for the light to turn green on that one, but if I would have been eager to go on green, I would ahve been t-boned by the OSCD car. It was fully marked, but no flashers or sirens...... I tried to catch the vehicle number, but I didn't want to look too obvious (fear of retaliation) and I missed it.
This happened in South OC at Alicia and I-5 NB exit. Any hints about what to do in the future? It was unsafe, improper and a pure violation of law. I have lodged a citizen complaint in the past(8 yrs ago) when I saw a similar event with a police officer blowing a light w/o lights & sirens. It turned out she was late for work ..... it made the small town's city council meeting.

In a way I feel sorry for her, I mean The person who was DUI, not the one who's situation got swept under the carpet. Life sometimes can load you to the breaking point. In her case, this is probably the result.

As for the DUI....There is no excuse....Period.... She Drank (over the limit)....She Drove (over the limit)....She crashed (over the limit).... All must take responsibility for their actions....

Very well said. I believe this shows your strong sense of character, the lady in question I have no doubt is intelligent, how else would she be a senior official, but may lack some sense of character.

OK, in addition to a DUI for an OCSD LT., the current, appointed sheriff, had an accident, in a county vehicle, in which she said something like "she was hit" and later, the facts about the accident did not support herstory? WOW! You can be hit by someone and still have it be your fault.
Why didn't this make the news? How 'bout a PRA on this?

Now, in the scheme of things is the accident itself a big deal? No. But why was information on it not released by the Sheriff's Department PIO as a matter of routine? Do they not think that 'Sheriff causes accident on freeway' is worthy of at least a general informational release? This is just one more indicator of this Sheriff's erratic and secretive behavior.
