A Florida mother, Joelle Service, 33, took her 6-year-old daughter to Wolf Branch Brewing in Mount Dora for what was supposed to be a simple birthday outing. The plan was straightforward: celebrate for a few hours, drive home, and call it a day. But according to investigators, Service kept drinking wine before getting behind the wheel.
The story she later had to tell the Apopka Police Department left her in an extraordinarily difficult position. Officers found Service passed out behind the wheel of her SUV on the shoulder of State Road 414. Her vehicle had damage to both sides, she allegedly had bloodshot, glassy eyes, slurred speech, and had vomited on herself. Fortunately, the SUV had come to a stop on the shoulder of the road, and no one else was injured.
