The Oklahoma teacher accused of showing up drunk to teach her third-grade class in August was arrested again on Monday. Payne County authorities said Kimberly Coates allegedly showed up to the courthouse walking unsteadily, smelling of alcohol with glossy eyes and slurred speech. A deputy arrested her for public intoxication after she allegedly admitted to having a glass of wine before coming to court — the same drink of choice she’s accused of bringing to the elementary school. The Law&Crime Network’s Sierra Gillespie breaks it down.

She has a problem
Just resign and get an Uber, Paul from London England
Teachers:the real heroes.
“I don’t want to!”
She’s a high functioning toddler.
12:42 “uhhh my juice”
Like a 4 year old.
6:56 she can’t even process her thoughts into words.
This is a virtual repost of the original video. Don’t waste your time.
Bet the judge LOVED that.
The only place for her is a lengthy prison sentence she obviously doesn’t get how serious her drinking problems are it’s so disrespectful to show up drunk to court that’s a crime in itself
Sorry but as a Math teacher, how is a .24 two times the limit of .08?
Oh this sucks for her
I just watched her first arrest. Goodness.
I cant begin to express how thankful i am that I'm no longer bondage to alcohol . Im literally 951 days 100% sober today. I was in rough shape, i literally was drinking every day, all day for YEARS and " could fool the best of them". Roughly 2&1/2 yrs ago @ 3:00 a.m. i cried uncontrollably and took my last drink of that poison. I was told i had " 6 months to live" by a medical professional. I'm living a fulfilling life now, genuinely happy and full of peace. A great sober relationship and indescribable feeling of joy. Thankyou for reading:)
Pair of bully's 👎👎👎🥓
This is very sad.
Sierra Gillespie you are so dreamy
Skip to the last 2mins of the video if youve already seen the full video.
"My juice" is the most alcoholic thing you could call something.
Alcohol destroys lives. Allen Carr’s Audio Book “How to control alcohol” will completely and easily free you from this kind of humiliation. I hope you will read it.
this does not need to be on the news and social media 🤷🏻♀️
Principal: “What’s that?”
Drunk teacher: “My juice.”
Yup…fermented grape juice (wine)
Damn! That Cracking Pop!
It's September 29th, 2024. Any new drunk arrests for Kimberly? I check YouTube occasionally to see if she has ANOTHER arrest for being a hopeless, weak drunk!
This was sad
This is just a sad situation for everyone involved..I pray that she gets the help needed like others have said before it's too late. My prayers go out to her her family and friends and co workers
I worked a job where my supervisor came everyday drunk, on his lunch break he went to the bar. I asked him how he get the job drinking like that he said well they dont test for alcohol…. lol
That I agree is understandable!!!! So is Uvauld Texas! They can’t be an active shooter!!!! Get the germ x ! Cow. Ards
Hey, just think, if she would have been drinking and teaching in California, she would not have faced any charges at all. Wendy Munson, a second grade teacher at a school North of Sacramento, CA was found to be intoxicated at twice the legal limit. Prosecutors found that it isn't illegal to be drunk and teach. Only in California would something like this not be illegal. California is a cesspool that needs to slide off into the Pacific Ocean. Disgusting!
Woman is a mess
This woman needs help and she should have gotten it way before she got to this point but it makes me feel crappy to see someone hitting rock bottom and having their lives ruined (ruined past getting their addiction sorted out) on social media. Is it really worth the clicks to completely humiliate this woman and have everyone around her know and gossip about her when they see her, even when/if she gets clean? Idk. She’s an adult and she should know what her next steps should be but I don’t think making her famous for ruining her life is showing much humanity.
Oh.keave this damn woman alone she didn't hurt anyone
this lady ruined her entire life choosing alcohol. her career, her family and her reputation.
