Not A Winning Strategy

Generally speaking, one should consider it bad form to show up drunk for one's third court appearance for drunk driving - in the last month alone. But then, it did happen in "The Rock"**.

LITTLE ROCK - A Little Rock woman facing her fifth drunken-driving charge in the span of a year — and third in less than a month — showed up to a court appearance drunk Tuesday morning, a court official said.

Susan Marshall, 55, was arrested for contempt of court after a brief appearance in Little Rock District Court, said chief probation officer Sheila Farley. Marshall later had a blood-alcohol level of 0.147 percent, Farley said. The legal limit for adult drivers in Arkansas is 0.08 percent.

Marshall said she did not drive to her court appearance and had no keys when arrested, Farley said.

**(That ought to get TC spun up!)

  Perhaps ‘On the Rocks’ would be a more fitting name?
