After reportedly driving while inebriated with children in the car, a Knoxville woman faces many charges of criminal neglect or abandonment of a dependent person and child endangerment.
Emily DeMoss, 24, of Knoxville, is charged with willfully driving a car on a Marion County public road while drunk, according to court documents. Police claimed that DeMoss was emotionally immature and had bloodshot, watery eyes, so she agreed to do standardized field sobriety tests. According to the police, DeMoss admitted to operating the vehicle and blew a.168. According to the police, there were several kids in the car when it was pulled over.
DeMoss faces three counts of child endangerment, three counts of neglect or abandonment of a dependent person, and one case of OWI second offense.
