More Shoes Drop in the Paul Pelosi Arrest Story

[Red State]"Rules for thee, but not for me"
Looks like more shoes are now dropping in the Paul Pelosi DUI arrest in Napa County, California.

As we’ve already reported, Pelosi, 82, the husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), was arrested on Saturday night shortly before midnight, at 11:44 PM, when he had an accident with another car. Fortunately, there were no injuries, but Pelosi was then charged with two misdemeanors: driving under the influence and driving with a blood-alcohol level at or above 0.08.

For some reason that hasn’t been fully explained yet, it took law enforcement officers more than four hours to book him after he was arrested. He wasn’t booked until 4:13 a.m. Was he resisting a breathalyzer? Causing a problem? Were they debating whether or not to charge him? It’s not clear. And if he was still blowing more than 0.08 after that time, what was he like at the time of the crash? He was released about three hours after he was booked on $5000 bail.

But now there’s more information on the accident. Pelosi was allegedly driving drunk when he piloted a 2021 Porsche through a stop sign while crossing State Route 29 and drove right into the path of an oncoming car driven by Jesus Lopez, 48, at about 10:26 p.m. So based on the report, Pelosi allegedly caused the crash. Notice he wasn’t driving an electric vehicle, but a nice gas-guzzling new Porsche.

This happened about five miles south of the Pelosi vineyard in St. Helena. This is just one of their many estates. Nancy Pelosi claimed she wasn’t with her husband but was in Rhode Island because she was going to be delivering a commencement address at Brown University.

From The Hill:

A representative for Pelosi told CBS News that he had been at a dinner party in Oakville until about 10:15 p.m., and drove the "short distance" home by himself. They added he was "fully cooperative" with authorities and that processing took until 7:30 a.m. on Sunday.

"Fully cooperative?" I’d like to hear the police say that and explain the four hours between the arrest and booking.

One of the neighbors described the Pelosis in a way that seems right on target and screams "elitism."

One vineyard owner who lives nearby told DailyMail.com the couple often block the road with their convoy of blacked-out SUVs when they come to town, but that they didn’t seen anything this weekend.

Some suggested that Paul might have been attending the Bottle Rocks festival which Snoop Dogg was playing at this weekend.

’It probably tracks more with the younger Paul,’ the neighbor said, referring to the couple’s 53-year-old son, Paul Pelosi Jr.

’I wouldn’t be going to the kinds of fundraisers and parties they go to.

’I don’t like them very much or find them very interesting,’ the vineyard owner said.

According to the neighbors, the Pelosis also throw lavish parties for Silicon Valley executives. I’m sure there are no conflicts at all there.

Nancy Pelosi isn’t talking about her husband’s arrest. She has no problem going after anyone and everyone else, but his arrest, she’s calling a "private matter."

#1 I think I read the other party in the wreck was an illegal immigrant; I wonder if he’s been deported yet.

#2 ^ Quite the opposite, driving while illegal, unlicensed and uninsured in Cali probably doubles his social credit score. About ten points may be temporarily deducted for being involved in an incident that embarrassed a leftist pol.

#3 I mean so he won’t be available to make a statement etc.

Wasted.

#5 its reported that Pelosi blew .09, over the limit at booking, which was at a curious 4:13 AM. The accident happened at 10:26, CHP was on-scene withing 10 minutes, the arrest occurred at 11:44 and the breathalyzer was at 4:13 am, six hours after the event. If you apply the general status of BAC decline form my post yesterday:
Drinkers who have stopped drinking burn off alcohol at the rate of .015% per hour as a general rule unless they have compounding health issues.
and you compute that rate backwards for six hours, you get an approximate BAC level of .19. How impaired is .19, consider that its borderline .20 in the chart below:

The Impact of Blood Alcohol Levels
As an individual’s blood alcohol level increases, so do their impairments. To know when your blood alcohol concentration may be too high, it helps to understand how levels of alcohol in blood can affect you.
 0.01 – 0.03% – This is the lowest measurable blood alcohol level. At this mild level of intoxication, you may feel slightly warmer and more relaxed.
 0.04 – 0.06% – Your behavior will become exaggerated (speaking louder, gesturing more), you may begin to lose control of small muscles (resulting in things like blurrier vision), and your judgment will be impaired.
 0.07 – 0.09% – Mild impairment of speech, vision, coordination and reaction times make it dangerous for you to drive. In the United States (aside from Utah), it is illegal to drive at or above .08% BAC; you will test as legally impaired at this blood alcohol level if you’re 21 or older.
 0.10 – 0.12% – Obvious physical impairment and loss of judgment. Speech may be slurred.
 0.13 – 0.15% – At this point, your blood alcohol level is quite high. You’ll be affected by blurred vision, loss of coordination and balance, and potentially dysphoria (anxiety or restlessness).
 0.16 – 0.19% – The term “sloppy drunk” applies. Dysphoria will become stronger, and nausea may occur. Walking becomes difficult, and you may fall and hurt yourself.
 0.20 – 0.29% – You’ll feel dazed, confused, and disoriented. Balance and muscle control have deteriorated, and you may need help walking. You may not notice if you injure yourself, as feelings of pain are numbed. Nausea and vomiting are likely, and an impaired gag reflex could cause you to choke on your own vomit. Blackouts occur at this blood alcohol level.

Now does the six hour delay seem curious as the case is considered by a judge about how impaired the driver was and how his future driving behavior might endanger the public?

#6 y'all act as if anything will ever come from this, whether law enforcement let him sit too long or not. They also do breathalyzers at the scene also.

#7 I generally shoot for .20.
Self medicating of course.

#8 EXCLUSIVE: Pelosi's multi-millionaire husband Paul killed his 19-year-old brother when he lost control and flipped his sports car in early-morning 'joyride' when he was 16-years-old - 65 years before this weekend's arrest for drunk driving crash

#9 I think he tried to Doordash, but Hunter Biden showed up and he was obviously tweaking, so he decided to just give it a go. He probably would have slept it off if he had been driving one of their high end vehicles. Not sure why they don’t have a driver. Maybe Jeeves was with Nancy in Rhode Island.
