She was way over legal limit, but at 94 pounds not hard to do.
Outcome, FELONY (so she is fucked for life on finding good work), Lost her license for 5 years. had to spend 30 days in the ohio DUI program as a resident. Had to do DUI classes in both KY and in Ohio cause she was a Ky resident. All this on a first offense, zero record of any kind... I literally took 5 years to finally clear it all up (but she still has the felony on her record now)
I always tell her she would have been better off just killing someone, she would have gotten off easier.

Sounds like her parents sprung for a shitty lawyer.
You guys would shit yourself if you heard what a buddy of mine just got of for. A small error on the part of police and a decent lawyer is all it took and all but the most minor of the charges were dropped.
The worst part about it was shitting his pants while drunk in overnight lockup.
