Texas Youth Summit Guest, James Taylor, Arrested For Alleged Drunken Driving
There was also an 18 year old girl in the car with him.
In another case of “many such cases,” right-wing music artist and former Bachelorette contestant, James McCoy Taylor, was arrested on charges of driving while intoxicated and unlawful possession of a weapon.
Oh and he also had a 18 year old “college freshman” in the car with him who police say was “impaired” and “not in any kind of condition to appraise the benefits and risks of the situation she was in.”
Taylor is 36 years old.
According to the officer, Taylor was urinating in the parking lot near his 2012 Ford F150 pickup. The officer spoke to Taylor and “advised him against urinating near the truck” and “further advised James not to drive the Ford F150.” Taylor assured the officer he would not drive and would find another way to leave, but moments later he returned to his pickup truck and drove away, the report states.
College Station police were notified and an officer found Taylor driving through the garage toward the exit gate. According to the arrest report, he told the officer he was only trying to move his truck to a different area of the parking garage to find better cell phone service.
Police say they had to reach inside the truck and turn off the ignition and then directed Taylor to exit his vehicle.
Officers described Taylor as having glassy eyes with slurred speech and smelling of alcohol while swaying back and forth while standing. He reportedly told police he had been drinking at Northgate and consumed six drinks during his time at several different bars between 10 p.m. Friday and 1 a.m. Saturday.
Police also noted in their arrest report there was an 18-year-old “college freshman companion” in the passenger seat of the pickup that Taylor had just met at Northgate and he was planning to take her back to her dorm room. Police went on to write in the report that she was impaired and “was not in any kind of condition to appraise the benefits and risks of the situation she was in.”
To make matters worse people are saying his F-150 is NOT a Texas Edition.
Taylor is scheduled to make an appearance at the Texas Youth Summit this week where, we guess, he might be really excited about that youth part of the whole thing.
Parents, watch your kids, no matter where they’re going.
