speech that was described<br />
as slurred and eye pupils<br />
appearing to be constricted.<br />
Martin said she performed<br />
sobriety testing<br />
poorly, relating that witnesses<br />
had seen her in a<br />

left the business. When<br />
she refused to blood testing,<br />

The duo were referenced<br />

Burchfield evaded the two<br />
and lit out across a field,<br />
