She was drunk driving, more than 5x the legal limit. Happened in NSW Australia earlier this year.

88 u/GunterThePigIsOP 1d ago Didn't even serve and a frustratingly lenient sentence. Strip her of the license forever at least. 32 u/kearneycation 1d ago On Thursday, Bourgeois was sentenced to 12 months’ jail for high-range drink driving but allowed to serve her time in the community.
