I have read elsewhere that her CCW permit status is indeed under question.

I haven't heard that. In all honesty it wouldn't surprise me if it was.

I also read there was a law that went into effect on Oct 11 specifically regarding weapons and intoxicants.

The law in question increased the penalty for carrying a firearm while intoxicated from a misdemeanor to a felony. But the problem is proving she was intoxicated. The police may suspect she was but since she wasn't driving they have no grounds to force her to take a Breathalyzer. Without proof they can't charge her.

So she is carrying a weapon, is arrested, is said to be visibly under the influence of alcohol, but the cops can't get a blood test drawn after taking her into custody without a special court order,solely because she refused to take a field sobriety test?

That's not making any kind of logical sense to me.

Mostly laws have a decent degree of logic attached to them.

I'm not buying this story at all, that she could be arrested and not tested.
