Mother who drove home drunk with children in car may have child neglect charges dropped

Woman began screaming at her two children that “this is your f*****g fault” and shouting at them to get out of the car after she was pulled over by gardaí on suspicion of drink-driving, court heard.
A healthcare student who drove home drunk from a friend's house party with her young children in the back of the car may have charges of child neglect against her dropped if she engages with the Probation Service.
Lawyers for the mother of two told Dublin Circuit Criminal Court at a hearing last November that it was the woman's “first time out in years literally” and she had arranged to stay overnight with her children.
