The officer suspected Nelson was impaired and performed field sobriety testing as well as a chemical test. Nelson's blood alcohol content was nearly 3x the legal limit resulting in her being taken into custody and transported to the Marshall County Jail.
Danielle Nelson is facing criminal charges for felony-operating a vehicle while intoxicated with a prior, misdemeanor-operating a vehicle while intoxicated-endangering, and operating a vehicle while intoxicated-over .15.

They are presumed innocent throughout the proceedings and are entitled to be represented by counsel and entitled to a trial by jury at which the State is obligated to provide proof beyond a reasonable doubt before a judgment of guilt may be made.
