Drunk driving and this time no one else was hurt or worse. Be a good brother and get out of the way of law and court ordered rehab.
Many other Americans have had relatives in this type of circumstance. Me as well. She wasn't involved in assault of a State Trooper, but, she was pulled over by an officer waiting outside a night club. DWI. We were lucky the police officer stopped her right at the onset, the possibilities were all nightmares.
I was so upset with her I didn't speak to her or visit for nearly a year. It was the last and only time she ever made that poor judgement. Today we have two wonderful boys in the family. She rarely drinks anymore, except, at special occasions in a toast.
The fact this happened is nothing to be ashamed of, however, if family dysfunctionally minimizes the severity of the problem and enters into inappropriate support of this behavior; it doesn't sincerely love their family members as much as they might think.

The younger brother of Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (click here) was arrested Monday afternoon after allegedly driving under the influence and punching a Nevada state trooper during a traffic stop.
Larry Reid, 73, was found sitting inside a Lexus SUV that had been driving in the median of Highway 95 near Searchlight, Nev. shortly after noon. According to KVVU, the arrest report for Reid said that the trooper asked him why he was driving in the median. Reid responded with what was described as "incoherent, slurred speech."
Reid then asked the trooper if he could leave. When he was told that he could not, the report said Reid cursed at the trooper and then put the vehicle into gear. The trooper ordered Reid to stop before reaching inside the vehicle to put it back into park.
At that point, the report claims, Reid punched the trooper twice in the face. The trooper was then able to pull the keys from the ignition and eventually arrest Reid after a short struggle....
