Catherine Butler Got Arrested For A DUI Twice In the Same Day. How Was Your Saturday?

DU-BYEA woman dressed as a zombie was busted for drunk driving — twice — during a three-hour binge in upstate New York.

Catherine Butler, 26, was first pulled over in Gates at 2 a.m. Saturday morning after cops spotted her driving without headlights,

The woman was wearing a ghoulish costume after attending a Halloween party at the time of her arrest.

She was arrested, and a pal later picked her up from the Monroe County police station and took her to her home.

But, having apparently not learned her lesson, the Rochester native was then caught driving again — this time without the zombie makeup — less than three hours later, after officers spotted her swerving on a local road.

I’m going to go out on a limb and say Catherine Butler did not have the best weekend. One DUI I can understand: you’re out on the town for a Halloween party and have too much to drink. You forget to turn your headlights on at 2am and the next thing you’re taking a really ugly mug shot at the police station. We’ve all been there. You chalk it up as a loss and move on. You know what you don’t do? You don’t get drunk that same day and start driving around again. You just don’t do it. Rule number one of getting a DUI is try your hardest not to get another DUI. Especially when the first DUI happened three hours before. If I had bet on what happened here, I’d say that she was still drunk from the first DUI. It was only three hours later, and if you’ve been drinking all night the alcohol stays in your system a lot later than 5am. I’ve woken up at noon after a night of drinking and still felt just as buzzed as I did the night before. However, Catherine did take the time to wipe her zombie make up off, but clearly that was not enough to stop her from getting DUI number 2. Hell of a weekend, Catherine. Enjoy public transportation for the foreseeable future.
