People make mistakes. Clients often come to me horrified that they have been charged with a DUI. I tell them that good people can make mistakes. Perhaps they will be more inclined to believe me when I tell them that a nun from Long Island was charged with DUI after crashing her church's van into a tree. She registered a BAC of .18, over twice the legal limit. An open container of alcohol was found in her church vehicle. Anyone, simply anyone, can make a mistake.
