Clare Roche, Cotrell’s lawyer, explained that she had “mental health” when she arrived at a party where she “knew nobody”.
Miss Angela Blackmore, public prosecutor, said that the officials had discovered the vehicle “about the speed limit”, “brake hard” and “to suck out in and out of the streets”.
When the police stopped Cotrell, they found “a smell of alcohol” and said that they “had signs of alcohol consumption”.
The court heard that Cotrell blown 107 micrograms of alcohol in 100 milliliters of breath on the side of the road. Other breath tests carried out at the police station after their arrest made 86 mcg/100 ml. The legal limit is 35 mcg/100 ml.
In the reduction, Ms. Roche said that Cotrell had “serious psychological health problems” and “fairly traumatic background” in nursing as a child.
She added: “She had masked symptoms of fear and PTBs until the beginning of this year when she had a massive outbreak and was looking for some help. Two months ago, she was medically medically medically
“In the night in question she went out with a friend and at the end of the evening she would get a taxi, but when she came to a house, this person knew this person there while the accused knew no one. Then she had mental health.
“A selfish act”
Ms. Roche said Cotrell “two glasses of wine that drank her pretty quickly” and then “panicked and had to get out”.
Instead of admitting, she explained that she was “afraid” and got a taxi, Cotrell decided to report voluntarily to bring a different party visit to your home to get out.
Ms. Roche added: “She drank the wine when she had medication at that time. Obviously, this caused difficulties with the medication and [she] Hadn’t eaten all day.
“She is regret and repentant. She knows that she will lose her license, which is important for her employment. In her job, she goes into this person.
The issue of the fine, the judiciary of peace, Brian Gallagher, told her: “I have to say that it is an selfish act. We hear about the devastation of families in which beverage drivers ruined their lives.
” You prove the course for the sensitization course of the beverage drivers and you will receive rehabilitation with it. I want it to fill it so that you really understand it and understand the consequences of drunk driving. “
