A chief judicial officer in Iowa’s Second Judicial District is facing a first-offense operating-while-intoxicated charge after a late-evening incident last week.

The situation began when motorists driving on a highway near Boone saw a pickup moving slowly through the median area and realized it had been traveling the wrong way in the westbound lanes. Several callers notified the authorities and said the driver appeared unconscious. One person stopped and tried to open the doors, but when they could not, they got into the truck by going through the rear window. They were then able to put it in park and turn off the ignition.

A deputy from the Boone County Sheriff’s Department arrived, and they reportedly found the driver was unable to stand without assistance, in addition to allegedly exhibiting several signs of being impaired. Emergency medical personnel at the scene evaluated her. According to the police report, she did not respond when asked whether she would participate in field sobriety tests.

A woman was arrested after reportedly going to work instead of stopping to assist when she allegedly hit her coworker with her vehicle in the parking lot.

On September 7, a 67-year-old woman from New Orleans was running late for her shift at a nursing home in Slidell. When she got there, she entered the one-way cul-de-sac that surrounds the entrance of the building, and she saw an open parking spot behind her. When she backed up, she reportedly struck an individual later identified as one of her coworkers. According to reports, she went into the building and clocked in instead of helping the alleged victim, but she told other employees that the woman had fallen outside. Paramedics took the woman to a nearby hospital, where an examination of her injuries caused the doctors to believe that they were not caused by a fall. The authorities were notified, and officers from the Slidell Police Department went to the nursing home to investigate the scene.

They reviewed the surveillance footage, and the police reported that they saw the incident as it occurred. They also noted that the suspect picked up a piece of her car that was damaged, causing them to believe she “knew she struck a person and went as far as to remove evidence to cover her tracks.”

A Florida woman is facing several charges for allegedly performing dental procedures without a license on individuals who later required emergency surgery to save their teeth.

According to reports, a woman who advertised discount veneers on social media was arrested in Hillsborough County in March for allegations that she performed procedures on individuals and accepted money for them, but was not a licensed dentist. After the arrest, she allegedly reopened shop at a beauty bar in Pinellas Park and continued attaching veneers. Over the summer, two individuals notified the authorities after reportedly having work done. They informed them that they had to undergo emergency surgery to save their teeth because they developed infections after the procedures. Another alleged customer reported that she was told the veneers would last between five and seven years, but they kept falling out. She said she asked for a refund, but she was denied and then ignored by the woman.

Investigators looked into the situation and reportedly found that the woman had not gone to school or been trained in dentistry, and she was not licensed to practice in the state of Florida. They believed that instead of doing it properly, she used crazy glue or nail glue to affix the veneers.
