The human body metabolizes alcohol at the rate of .015 BAC per hour. For a person with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08, the standard for legal drunkenness, it's going to take over five hours for their system to metabolize that alchohol (0.08 divided by .015 = 5.3333).
The lady was described as having a slight odor of alcohol on her breath. Apparently, no field evidence of impairment was presented. She blew zero how many hours later? Certainly not five hours later. So, she was not legally drunk at the time she was detained by the officer.
You write: So, she was not legally drunk at the time she was detained by the officer.
The argument was never about whether she was legally drunk sir. The debate was about could she be at zero an hour after having a glass of wine. I say yes and a link to a women’s alcohol abuse site posted earlier supports that. Remember, a single small glass of wine may have just .25 ounce of alchohol in it.
PS: Maybe you missed the fact she REFUSED the breathalyzer test which is an automatic arrest and detainment.
Considering the report states they were only about a mile away from the station, I would say maybe 15 or 20 minutes at the most........not hours.
