- So we got this guy.
He's acting kind of weird still.
[police radio chatter]
Hold on.
Driver.
Exit your vehicle.
Driver.
Exit.
Come here.
Stop right there.
Anybody else there?
- A good friend of mine.
- Front seat? In the back seat?
Where's the back seat--
is he behind you?
- It's a child, man.
- Child?
- Child.
OK.
Yeah.
Do not move, you understand?
The reason I stopped you is because you're speeding.
You're going 80 miles an hour in a 60.
And I can also detect a strong odor of alcohol beverages
coming from you.
Yes, I can, sir.
You can lie to me all you want, but I
know what I can detect, OK.
- There's a two-year-old just lying in the back seat asleep.
It's her car and her child in there.
She's so messed up she has no idea where she's at.
- OK.
- How come your child is not secured right now?
He's not your-- your child is supposed to be in a seat,
in a child restraining seat.
Your child's not even on a seat.
He's just laying in the back seat, ma'am.
- Here's the thing--
- Do you understand how dangerous that is?
- But the thing is, like--
- There's no thing.
- She picked me up.
I don't have a car.
- Who's she?
Are you talking about the driver?
- Mm-hmm.
- The driver wasn't a she.
She's heavily intoxicated.
There's two-year-old right there in the back seat just laying
down.
I mean, she has a seat belt, the middle seat belt on,
but I mean, that's not going to protect the child.
If they would have hit somebody, that child
was just going to go through the seat belt.
- I'm going to go ahead and start CPS because it takes them
so long, and then if we don't need them,
we can always cancel them.
- OK.
Yeah, we're going to start, like he said, CPS, and someone
for the child, because that's not a place to be at right now.
OK, so how much have you had to drink?
- Some wine.
- How much is some wine?
- Like, a small [inaudible].
I just literally drank some wine.
And me and her was talking about some things.
She's going to the Air Force.
- OK.
What time did you finish drinking?
- About 10 minutes ago.
- I drank, like, a bottle of wine--
not even a bottle of wine--
- A bottle of wine?
- It was three of us with a bottle of wine.
- Come here.
Come here.
Come here. [crying]
Come here. Listen.
- He's going to sit with you and talk with you.
- Listen you're going to come and talk to me over here.
Your child is going to be with Trooper Foster.
OK?
Ma'am, you can't even stand up by yourself.
- Yes, I can. - You can't even--
- No, I'm good. - I'm telling you right now--
- No, I'm good.
- Listen, you're not under arrest right now,
but if you start acting up--
- I'm fine.
- All right let's come-- let's talk over here.
- I'm fine.
- We did call CPA to come for her child
because she's going up and down, swinging up and down.
But it's definitely, I think, one of the worst situations
that we could have.
- Who do you have where the baby can go?
- Nobody.
To my house, that's all, because that's my son.
- OK.
Do you have a family member--
- No, I don't.
My parents are dead.
I don't have anybody.
My friend was in the car with me and she's gone so take him,
I guess. [bleep]
- I don't want to take him.
- OK, well, you got to do what you got to do, so take him.
- While we were doing the search,
we found this open container right here,
sangria, in the passenger seat where the mother was sitting
at.
Also this vial, which doesn't have a label on it
or anything, but that could possibly be PCP.
I'm going to take her to jail for public intox at this point.
Even if she goes home, she can't take care over anybody.
She can't even take over herself right now, I believe.
She can't take care of her kid.
Now the car's being towed.
The driver and the passenger both went
to jail, one for public intox of passenger and the other one
for driving under the influence.
We're able to get the child a safe home for tonight.
As a parent, it just--
it sucks.
I mean, it just--
it's unbelievable.
And I really hope for the best for the child.
I'm probably never going to see him again, but I hope the best.
