What is the name of your state? Michigan
I am a 24 yr old female. I am a stay at home mom of 2 special needs children and a part-time nursing student. Last Friday I got arrested for my 1st time OWI. It was the first time I was ever arrested. I really REALLY can't go to jail. Both of my kids are special needs (Autism) and they really need me to be home.
I tell you my story-
It was my last day of my fall semester so me and my classmates went out for lunch and some drinks after class. I didn't eat anything and drank probably 4 beers. I am not a big drinker and I weight 100 lbs. so what I drank made me really drunk. Basically I puked on myself. I don't even remember getting in my car. If I was in any sane state of mind I would have NEVER drove home. It is the biggest regret of my life. My husband is ready to leave me over it. I have never been so deppressed in my whole life. So I got pulled over and blew a blood alchohol level of .17
Even if I shouldn't I am going to hire an attorney, I can not go to jail.
What I am asking is, do you think there is anyway I will not go to jail?
In your opinion, do you think there is anyway I can make myself look better in court such as volunteering for something in the county or going to AA or MADD meetings?
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
