Are you talking about mother or daughter? You said dad picked her up and that kind of threw me. DUI is only serious if it is someone who has no pull.
I assume it was Mom since the first name is Dana. Her Dad's last name was shown as Tackett or something like that. I can't really remember what the name was that was given to me but I remember it started with the letter T. Anyway, funny remark on another reply about Layton not working at daytime much less night! Absolutely true. Keep on top of this one folks. Big cover up coming!
AW - Since you're a comic book detective, how is it that you aren't all over this one?
Smells like this mulch pile has a rather nasty trail going on already!
If this is true then"Bless her little heart". Wonder if she had left a local establishment. If so, why was she able to drive? Why didn't someone take her keys? I think that is required today.
Required by who? You can't just take someone's keys.
Askwipe - you ARE a freaking idiot!
What has any of THAT got to do with: Oak Ridge, Anderson County, Layton, Beauchamp or the color green?
Unless it is plead. There will be an arraignment. Askwhy: Judges in Anderson County are not on call for certain nights or weekends. If you ask any Oak Ridge officer it is hard to find Layton to sign a warrant. They have had to track down the other Judges even though they knew Layton was in his house and refusing to answer the phone. He jokes about it constantly. Remember, he has said he hates officers and they could kiss his cheek. That was said in open court. Most of these warrants are for General Sessions Court and it should be his responsibility to make himself available to the officers but he does not. Other judges have been awakened in the middle of the night because he will not answer his phone or door.
Play nice BS.
Yes Sir.
However, in my own defense (NOT that I am an attorney, NOR do I play one on tv, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night), it is RARE that anyone gets my fur flying. I shall retract the claws and put down the gun (for now it's Miller time).
If there is a plea you are correct, legally the defendant has to show and tell the judge they understand what is being done. That is not the same as a day in court. A day in court is referred to as a trial.
The last charges were dismissed and I am anxious to see what happens to this one. Askwhy: Proprietors can be held liable if they let someone drive intoxicated and they were the one who served them. It probably would be a civil action but they have been held accountable. No, you can't take their keys but you can call for assistance whether it be a taxi or the police.

OK Sweetie (playing nice) -
Focus on the words which I have highlighted for you.
At what point do you believe that the person in charge (whether it is a bartender, wait staff, manager, or owner) of an establishment (which provides liquid alcohol) should allow a paying patron (or friend, or ex) to exit the premises and enter a motorized vehicle, turn the key and stammer off into the world of innocence?
If she was drinking alone at home, that's one thing. If she was in the presence of another (or others), THAT is disgusting.
"Pleasant" note to you AW: I'm sure you will twist, spin, and/or mutilate the meaning of the above. And that is OK with me. No ego bruised here.
