Adults acting stupidly (ETOH involved, of course)

Some of you may remember a smilar matter out of Hays County, Wimberly I believe, where a man picking up his daughters from his ex-wife sat one of them in his lap and she blew into the ignition interlock device.

He drove off and into a lake and all three died.  I believe Mom was prosecuted because she saw him do that and took no steps to stop it or prevent him from driving off.

At least these kids will live.

Women arrested for using kid to foil car breathalyzer

SOUTH PADRE ISLAND — Two Rio Grande Valley women were jailed after trying to get a child to foil a court-mandated car breathalyzer, island police said Wednesday.

Not only were the women too drunk to start the car, but they made their noisy attempt outside the home of a municipal judge, who phoned the incident in, town police spokesman Carlos Centeno said.

Bond was set at $50,000 apiece for Jessica Rosalez, 28, of Weslaco, and Linda Rosalez, 31, of La Villa, after police on Sunday determined both women “had lost all use of their mental and physical faculties and were a danger to themselves and others.”
