An alleged prostitute who jumped off the Bay Bridge to avoid arrest in August was hella drunk from splitting a fifth of Hennessy, according arrest affidavits reported by the Contra Costa Times.
According to the report, 25-year-old Erlynn Kay Sanchez-Edwards was arrested in Oakland after police searched for the woman for nearly a month after they say she crashed a car she had stolen, then jumped off the Bay Bridge to icy water nearly 70 feet below, swam and hitched a ride with a truck driver.
Sanchez-Edwards was charged with three misdemeanor counts of hit-and-run driving, evading a police officer and driving without a license. The water temperature when Sanchez-Edwards allegedly dove off the bridge was likely below 55 degrees, and survival time in the water can be 30 minutes to 1 hour. Maybe less in evening wear.
According to arrest records, Sanchez-Edwards was working as a prostitute in San Franciscos Mission District when she offered to drive two other prostitutes to Oakland in a stolen Nissan Maxima. After she crashed the car on the Bay Bridge around 2 a.m., Sanchez-Edwards evaded police by jumping off the bridge into the icy water.
A dump-truck driver reported that he picked up the woman, in a wet black dress, near the bridges toll plaza and gave her a ride into San Francisco.

Friends of the road, buddy.
Pretty impressive actually. That’s a long ways down and depending on where she was, a long ways to shore.
I’ve been drunk, and I’ve swam in the ocean, but never combined. Sounds quite treacherous to me.
Damn, its Robo-Ho!
Yeah, I hafta agree with poster “APaGttH” at the article’s website (and I quote):
“So let me get this straight.
She crashed a car, then jumped SEVENTY-FEET into 55 degree water without breaking her limbs, concussing herself unconscious, blowing out an ear drum or collapsing a lung.
She then swam against San Francisco Bay currents to shore, flagged down a truck, escaped, and took a month to find.
Forget arresting her, give her a job in the CIA. Thats Hollywood movie grade level of escape that takes a special brand of crazy.”
We indeed must hire this woman. Unless she already works for Putin or China, in which case we ourselves are Hella Screwed. If that’s how she plays on a girls night out, I don’t even wanna be in the same zip code when she gets serious!
I’m sticking to the Terminator theory for now.
LOL, I hear ya!
That’s racist.
enough of the green humor?
That’s a trap.
