Regardless, how does it hamper her ability to do her job. To say such is an attempt at character assignation instead of debating her actual job performance.
Victor, I do consider you a friend, but I also lose a certain amount of respect for you when you use arrest reports to disparage someone without saying whether they were found innocent, guilty or if the charges were dismissed before trial. You’re better than that.
Not to point out the obvious, but if you're white and have an arrest record, odds are you were up to some sh#t, even if there wasn't a conviction.
But, to make you feel better, she has one DUI conviction (this is still more than the number of Press Conferences she has to her name). The other was "dropped as part of a plea agreement".. which means she was f$cking drunk.
More interesting, she didn't get her 2013 DUI dropped until she pleaded guilty to her 2015 DUI. So that was 2 years of somehow not facing that charge... and not being tried, until she screwed up again.
