The woman wrecked her vehicle. The police have every right to see if she was illegally intoxicated.
Cops don't have a right to search your home for no reason, but if there is suspicion you stole some property, they have a right to search it.

She was putting lives at danger and you're asking about the consequences. P.O.S.

She should go to jail for at least a year and never be allowed to drive again.

refused the breathalyzer test and was charged with 2nd offense DWI
Well, since this has been specifically adjudicated by the Supreme Court, it is technically constitutional.
U.S. Supreme Court upholds MN breath test law for DUI
Warrantless blood tests are another matter, but all it takes is a warrant. Expect that if you need medical attention.

Second DWI in Louisiana is a misdemeanor. She'll probably get a couple of years of probation, Interlock in her car, and community service. Number three is a felony, which means possibly some jail time, followed by probation and home incarceration, treatment programs, fines and fees out to wahzoo.
Oh, and she is an idiot. I've lost family to drunk drivers and I have no sympathy for anyone who drives drunk. She is 62; tell her to act like a fricking adult and make better decisions.

She should have ran, a minor hit and run is peanuts compared to 2nd offense DUI

Is this a recent development? I have a friend who got a 3rd but no jail, home confinement, etc. does the time between 2nd and 3rd matter?
eta he has some connections in the legal community... maybe that's it.

Could be. Then again, I'm in the 22nd Judicial District, a.k.a. "St. Slammany." Home incarceration is just about guaranteed here for DWI 3rd, usually for the first two years of probation, along with Interlock.
Up until a few years ago, DWI 3rd had a mandatory one year sentence (but most were out after four of five months due to good time credits). That was changed to help reduce the prison population. Hell, now you can get a 4th and still only get probation.

You have far too much time on your hands. why do you believe this occurred last week?

in Louisiana, not a big deal until your 4th.

Why does that matter?

If only it was that simple. Sorry for your losses. A person has to want to do the right things to prevent wrong decisions and make a total commitment to follow through. Unfortunately many never seem to get there.

A bit judgemental aren't you. The potential consequences affect more than just her and the reason for asking go beyond your narrow view. I have never condoned her actions and fully respect there are laws and the well being of other motorists at stake.

Minimum 48 hours in jail, 2 years probation, about 1500 fine and court cost, 100 hours of community service, mandatory attendance of a substance abuse and driver improvement course, possibly substance counseling.

She needs to sit her arse in jail for a good while putting others at risk. Pathetic how little respect some people have for others' well being when their "fun" takes priority

Do you really believe this or are you just trying to sound cool and harsh? In no way should she lose her license for life. Going a year without a license is plenty. She'll be paying for this mistake for the next 2-3 years. That's plenty. Ya'll can say what you want, but LA is in the top 20% of tough penalties for DWI. Sure, some states are tougher but some are much more lenient too.
