By western Sydney reporter George Roberts
ABC Australia News
"She was seven times over the legal blood alcohol limit and had a baby in the back of the car. We don't have a name for her, but it should be pretty easy to find out who she is with a case like that..."
It was my first time reporting from the courts and that was the mission the Chief of Staff sent me on.
Liverpool Local Court in Sydney's west was packed, and it was my job to find one woman whose case was newsworthy for two reasons:
Firstly, driving a car with such an astronomically high level of alcohol in her blood stream was astounding; secondly, the danger to the baby gave the case an added level of interest and raised so many questions.
