(Sarpy County, Nebraska) A 25-year-old Elkhorn woman, Denise Thomson, was arrested for allegedly driving with a blood alcohol content of 0.415 while transporting a child.

Thomson has been charged with suspicion of DUI, negligent child abuse, driving left of center and driving on the shoulder of the road.


Sarpy County Sheriff Jeff Davis said 0.415 is the highest blood-alcohol reading he has seen in his career. Experts say that a level that high typically means a person is in a coma.
An 8-year-old child in the vehicle was determined to be a ward of the Department of Health and Human Services, the news release said. The child wasn't harmed and was later turned over to her foster parents.
"Nothing wrong with the child. The child was in the back seat seatbelted in, and fortunately, nothing bad really happened," said Capt. Dan Williamson.
Thomson works for Beneficial Behavior Health in Omaha provides transporation to DHHS, the release said. Beneficial said Thomson has been suspended, and it is cooperating with DHHS.
So, Thomson provides transportation services for children who are wards of the state. It's probably not a good job for a record-holding libationist.

Thomson was booked into custody at the Sarpy County Jail and later released on bond.

Do you have the Chapter and Section for that?

I've heard of medically dead, but never legally dead.

Someone should tell my uncle Carlos to lie down.

Here's a scenario I just thought of.

You stop an OUI and he takes a portable breath test and registers .53

Do you arrest him and risk the liability or do you just call next on the list/owner's request, funeral home?

She should be charged w/attempted murder and should never be allowed near her child/children again. What a stupid bitch. On the b.a. level, I heard an alcoholic can consistantly blow a .3 or higher most of the time. Is that true?
