Woman Registers a .47 on Breath Tester
Woman Registers a .47 on Breath Tester

REDMOND, Wash. (AP) -- A woman arrested following two car crashes last week registered a .47 blood-alcohol content on a breath test - nearly six times the legal intoxication threshold and possibly a state record.
Deana F. Jarrett, 54, was taken to Evergreen Hospital as a precaution following her arrest April 11, the Washington State Patrol said Wednesday. No one was injured in the accidents.
Jarrett blew the .47 on a portable breath tester after she collided with two other vehicles in quick succession, the patrol said. A check of all 356,000 breath tests administered since 1998 in Washington turned up only 35 above .40 - and none of those was higher than .45.
The legal intoxication threshold in Washington is .08.
Jarrett did not appear to have a listed phone number, and it was not clear if she had obtained a lawyer.

I'm thinking people have died from alcohol toxicity at levels lower than that. I checked and the LD50 level for adult humans is .40. There is no smiley for this one. That's the closest one I could find.

I read a story on this the other day, and apparently the women in question is a former deputy sheriff as well.

It's amazing that didn't kill her, or that she didn't spontaneously combust.
