The Sutter County sheriff’s office said the teacher’s blood alcohol level, two hours into the school day, was nearly twice the legal limit for driving. At the time, the sheriff’s office said she would be charged with driving under the influence and child endangerment. But the county prosecutor’s office said this week that it could not prove the teacher had been drunk when she was driving to school or that her condition posed a definite threat to the children in her class. Dupre told KOVR she also ruled out a public intoxication charge because “we would have to prove that she is unable to care for herself and others.”
The school district has not commented on the teacher’s status. At the time of her arrest, it said a long-term substitute would take over the class.Miss Manners: I'm a bride-to-be with a flashy ring, and I don't like the questions I getAsk Amy: While I was out of state, they took away my grandparent statusAsk Amy: I found out my son's friend is my son, too.
