?Suspicious?: Sober driver arrested for drunk driving after deputy runs stop sign and crashes into her car
Tanya Weyker of Milwaukee, Wisconsin has been fighting for over a year to clear her name and get her medical bills paid following a serious car accident with a Milwaukee County Sheriff?s Deputy.
WITI Fox6 investigated Weyker?s story in depth and reported about her ongoing struggle. It all started on the night of February 20, 2013, when Deputy Joseph Quiles, with the airport division of the Sheriff?s Office, T-boned Weyker?s Camry, sending it spinning into a tree. It would be discovered later that Weyker broke her neck in four places. She told the station, ?It was a miracle I wasn?t paralyzed.?
After the accident, police and sheriff?s deputies interviewed those on the scene. Weyker recalled, ?One deputy asked if I had anything to drink that night and I told him how I just had a few sips of a friend?s drink.? The deputy noted that she had a light odor of alcohol on her breath and that her speech was slurred. Another note said her eyes looked red and glassy. But Weyker, a 25-year-old with a spotless record said, ?I explained to him my eyes were red and glassy because I was crying.? When asked about any prescription medication she had taken, Weyker told the deputy that she last took Vicodin the previous week when she had her wisdom teeth pulled.
