Washington state Democrat Krista Perez, who is running for a state House seat, was seen on police video admitting to drinking wine, declining field sobriety tests and begging to go home before praying and crying in the back of a patrol car after her DUI arrest.
Perez finished first in last month’s primary in the 29th Legislative District, Position 1, and will face incumbent state Rep. Melanie Morgan, also a Democrat, in November, as the top two candidates advance to the general.
Tacoma Police said Perez’s 2019 Chevrolet Silverado allegedly struck a parked car on South G Street shortly after midnight on August 11, setting off a chain reaction that damaged five vehicles, according to The Jason Rantz Show on Seattle Red.
Prosecutors charged her with DUI, with a refusal enhancement in connection with the collision and a later encounter with police.
Body camera footage shows police questioning Perez after the crash and her subsequent arrest, while footage from the backseat of the patrol car shows her praying and sobbing, according to video obtained by The Jason Rantz Show on Seattle Red.
After police arrive at the scene, Perez told an officer she did not understand what was going on and claims she was not involved in an accident, the footage shows.
“Did you get into an accident here?” the officer asks.
“I did not,” Perez responded.
The officer then asked what happened.
“I don’t know. I’ve never been in an accident before,” she replied.
She also said she switched insurers just weeks before the incident when asked for her documents. She was able to tell the officer the name of the insurance company.
Perez told the officer she was driving from a friend’s business on Tacoma Avenue South when the collision happened.

On November 10, 2024, an elected official, possibly in Washington, was completely sloshed. She hit two cars and damaged her own. All charges were eventually dropped. Everything.

Yeah. She really looks like a candidate for public orifice, that’s for sure. Boy are we circling the drain.
Probably hormonal.
Spill that wine….
There were short, round and brown ones.

Wow, this NEWS will most likely garner about 33,478 votes of the drunks in Seatlle will now come out and vote for her... SHE IS ONE OF US.
A wannabe lawmaker, breaking the law. At times, she didn’t even know what the law is and just wanted to go to her safe house after smashing another car. Lock her up.
Pretty smart woman. She just guaranteed her election. She’ll win in a landslide.
No news here move along.
Meanwhile in Virginia mock warna can not schedule time to debate his republican challenge for the Senator from Virginia race.
Another alcohol related problem no doubt......
Basement Joe 2.0 watch for the STEAL.

What!? A large gas SUV?
That alone should (but won't) get her cancelled in Seattle for hypocrisy.
Well, it’s the big democrat tent. Drunks, drug dealers and addicts , illegal aliens, gang bangers, murderers, wife beaters, pervs of all kinds, and more are encouraged to vote and run for office. See how enlightened they are compared to us fear driven troglodytes? /s
I wonder what the business was that she and her friend were involved in.
If it wasn't an accident, one could reasonably conclude it was an intentional act.

Just another one of the communists’ typical AWFLs wanting to do awful things to America. Classic Iconic poster woman for the Communist Party.
A couple weeks ago a State Senator in Maryland hit a car then drove into a tree. He left the scene on foot then returned. He claimed to the cop that his driver did it.
The cop asked him to do a sobriety test which he refuse. The cop then offered to drive him to his hotel (Senate was in a special session to deprive us of more of our rights) which he also refused.
Ring Camera from a nearby home showed that he was the driver. Of course in Maryland, nothing will happen to him because he’s a black democrat. (double box check)
Melanie, Lee, and Officer Vic were the greatest! But no way Melanie was a D! (SF Bay insider remark).
