New Jersey Township Official Pleads Guilty to Child Abuse, DWI After Drunk Driving Accident

A New Jersey township official has pleaded guilty to child abuse and driving under the influence, admitting to driving at nearly triple the legal limit after a car accident. The official, who was in charge of children's services for her community, had a blood alcohol concentration of 0.30%. She entered a diversion program as part of her plea deal, which will allow her to avoid jail time if she completes certain conditions.
