Cuz there's two options. You can act like an adult, sit in the seat, or we can put you in the seat. >> This is not up for discussion. You're going to jail, okay? So, just sit in the seat. >> I don't know. She wouldn't say anything to me. Oh, take it. Is this her? >> Is this her? All right. Yeah, let's start. >> Hello. Hi. What's your name? Hey, my name is Ron and I'm with the Chris Lake Fire Department. I'm a paramedic. I'm here to assess you. Okay. What's your name? Can I sit you up? I don't I don't You look I'm going to sit you up a little bit. Okay. I got to take a look. I got to make sure you not pass out or anything. >> You're forcing yourself, so >> Oh my god. >> All right. >> Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. >> All righty. >> Oh my god. >> Oh my god. >> Hi. >> Oh my god. >> You have ID by chance or any Why are you screaming? >> So I don't know. She's got a bunch of prescription medications and a bunch of >> Yeah, I mean she's not obviously answering any questions or doing anything. So obviously inevitably I believe we're going to be transporting her anyways, I would imagine. Right? Because even if we don't transport her, which again I'm just getting to that point, >> you guys have like a limit, right, of what their um blood alcohol level can be before they have to be sent out to a hospital for like evaluation. >> We would normally do like anything over 30, we would normally contact fire check. But with all with her not even with her crashing and then all the kills and stuff >> she hasn't even complied. I'm assuming she hasn't even flown. You guys have no idea where her any of that information. >> What's your name? >> This is for me. >> Yeah. >> All right. Uh yeah, please. >> Jill. >> Yeah. >> Jill. Jill. >> All right. So Jill, since you're not communicating with me, all right, and we're highly suspecting that you've consumed a lot of alcohol and or ingested um you know, few prescription drugs, if you are not communicating with me whatsoever, I have zero choice but to take you to the hospital. Okay, let's see if we can get her to stand up and then you can at least get one off. I mean, >> hey, not worried about getting >> Jill, can you open it? >> Jill, stand down. >> Jill, come on. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. >> Joe, can you step out of the you >> can you step car? Step out of the car. >> Yo, >> anybody. You're going to get anybody. Get your >> Are you going to step out of the car? >> If you don't get out of the car, I'm going to put you in the ramp and that's your whole body is going to be restrained to assist. >> I don't care. >> So you need to get out of the vehicle for us. Get your >> That's not going to happen. >> Get your car. >> That's not going to happen. You need >> Get your >> Then assist yourself. Get out of the car. >> Get your assist yourself and get out of the car. Let's go. Let's go. >> Get yours. Get your Get your >> Which hand are we going to go? >> Get your >> pick one. And then Yeah. >> Get yours. She's going to go >> get your >> Jill. Again, I'm Ramon. I'm with I'm a paramedic. I'm with the fire department. >> You got you. >> Okay, that's fine. Jill. >> So, we're taking you to the hospital. I've already I've already scooter back just a little bit. All right. >> Jill, relax. [Music] You got it. Stop it. Stop it. Stop it. >> Enough with the nonsense. >> Stop it. Stop it. >> Then which high school you guys? >> I'm sorry. Probably not going to take really really. >> How you been, man? >> Not too bad. I >> think we have to like place a hold on her at least because I'm being aggravated >> to the paramedic. The battery charge. >> Yeah. Oh yeah. >> So, I mean, yeah, he has to place a pole on her anyway. >> Hey everyone, it's Trent, prior deputy sheriff, patrol sergeant, and K9 handler. So, initially, this was just a standard welfare check, right? Reported by a concerned citizen. And I'm sure once this officer first arrived on scene because I have been to calls like this before. He just wanted to make sure that she was not having some sort of medical emergency that she was alive and breathing, had a pulse, and did not require immediate medical attention because that happens sometimes. People pull over, they have heart attacks, they have strokes, other medical emergencies, and you have to make sure that that's not the case. Although once he does that, it's very obvious there's something else going on with her. And that's why he continues to dig and ask her questions. Even though she's shutting him down, saying, "Don't talk to me." Telling him to not ask any more questions. Although he is definitely within his legal right to continue to ask her whatever he wants. There's no custody and interrogation here. They're both in a public place and she's not even detained initially. So, he's doing what pretty much every cop would be doing and trying to figure out what's going on. And then once he moves to the passenger side of the vehicle, it's even notated in his report. He observed an open container bottle of alcohol. So, she was clearly intoxicated. And then he definitely picked up on that. The more he talked to her, he observed the open container, which is a law violation in and of itself, even if she's not driving, even if the vehicle's not turned on. But with her slurred speech behavior, the open container, it was pretty easy for him to establish that she was intoxicated and could not operate a motor vehicle. Now, for the driving under the influence or DUI portion, traditionally in court, to get a conviction, you need movement of a vehicle or to prove that somebody was intoxicated while operating a motor vehicle. But the last thing you want to do in this situation is allow somebody like this suspect to drive off. And he was trying to stop her when she put her keys in her ignition on two separate occasions, which she was definitely detained at that point. And then on a third one, she drove off. And that's why they were justified in stopping her and pulling her over because they were easily able to articulate that she was intoxicated. And then of course she definitely shouldn't have been on the road when we see her sailing into that other vehicle. And I feel bad for whoever owns that car. But it is definitely a good thing that citizen reported that welfare check to begin with because like I said, the last thing you want is somebody like this on the road. And if this cop hadn't shown up, she could have potentially woken up, driven somewhere, and hurt somebody else or herself. And this was also her third arrest for DUI. and that's why her license was suspended to begin with. And that's going to be it for this one. See you guys in the next one. >> She was charged with multiple counts including aggravated DUI, aggravated fleeing and battery to a paramedic and was cited for open container, improper lane usage, failure to reduce speed, and operating an uninsured motor vehicle, but remains innocent until proven guilty.
