Mother And Daughter Both Get DUI's - An Hour Apart!


IDAHO - Idaho authorities say a mother and daughter were arrested for drunken driving within an hour of each other -- the mother when she went to pick up her daughter's dog. The Post Register reports a sheriff's officer stopped 28-year-old Alisha Gardner at 10:56 p.m. Saturday in Idaho Falls after spotting her car swerving and crossing the centerline. Sgt. Jeff Edwards says her blood-alcohol level was twice the legal limit, so Gardner was taken to jail. Just under an hour later, 51-year-old Diana Gardner arrived to pick up her daughter's dog, which was in the car. An officer smelled alcohol on her and a test revealed that her blood-alcohol level was also twice the legal limit, so she was arrested. The report did not say what happened to the dog.

Nice family.  But let's face it, they live in Idaho.  I've been to Idaho.  Idaho would make me drink like a fish all day every day too.  So here's the solution - sober up for a couple of days in the drunk tank, pack up your stuff and get the hell out of Idaho.  And please, don't forget the dog.  Pay attention!

Mother Of The Year?

CBSNews
Georgia Mom Checked Son, Friends Out of School to Rob Bank, Say Police
(CBS/WGCL) Three Georgia teenagers are facing armed robbery charges after the mother of one of the boys reportedly checked them out of school, allegedly so they could help her rob a bank. CBS affiliate WGCL reports that 35-year-old Tawander Simmons of Stone Mountain checked her son, 17-year-old Benny Brice and two other boys out of Stephenson High School on Friday morning. Police say the four then robbed a Wells Fargo in Lilburn, Ga., about 20 miles outside Atlanta. Simmons' neighbors were shocked when they learned that the bank robber they saw on the news was their neighbor. "I can't believe[it], wait until I tell [my wife] the neighbor robbed the bank. She don't know it's the neighbor either. When I saw it on the news I said, 'Why would she get her kid in trouble'," Leroy Anderson told the station. According to investigators, Simmons was armed with a gun when she approached a teller and demanded money. The bank's surveillance cameras snapped pictures of her, WGCL reported. Another picture shows two of the teens entering the bank. One had his hands in his pants as if he had a weapon. Police said the second teenager did have a gun. The trio then ran outside to an awaiting car and the remaining suspect, and were soon chased by Lilburn police. The alleged getaway vehicle crashed into a railroad track and police arrested Simmons, her son and 18-year-old Glenn Broom and 17-year-old David Rollins. All are charged with armed robbery.
