Kaden's Crazy News: An Assistant Principal Showed Up to School Drunk . . . During Alcohol Awareness Week

There's an assistant principal in Louisiana whose school has been doing Alcohol Awareness Week this week.  And apparently, she was like, "You had me at 'alcohol.'"

 

 

The cops in Pierre Part, in southern Louisiana, got a call on Monday about a dangerous driver on the highway.  They wound up following the car . . . all the way to an elementary school parking lot.

 

 

And the woman driving was 49-year-old Rachel Turley, who's the assistant principal at that school.  And yeah, Monday was the first day of the school's Red Ribbon week, which is their annual event for alcohol awareness.

 

 

Her blood-alcohol level was almost three times the legal limit, so she was arrested for driving while intoxicated and careless operation.  There's no word on whether she still has a job.
