Moment elderly Indiana lady has too much to drink and does donuts on the local courthouse lawn
A bizarre video has captured the moment an elderly Indiana lady was seen driving donuts on a local courthouse lawn after having too much to drink.
Her identity has been revealed as Lorraine Phyllis Wilkerson, a North Vernon resident, according to Jennings County Jail records. Wilkerson was arrested at Jennings County Courthouse, after 5pm on October 5.
‘Yesterday afternoon, a 67-year-old woman was arrested for Operating a Motor Vehicle While Intoxicated, along with numerous other charges, following an incident at the courthouse,’ Jennings County Sheriff’s Office wrote in a Facebook statement.
The Daily Mail has viewed jail records that state Wilkerson was faced with two misdemeanor charges. One for operating a vehicle with an alcohol concentration of .08 or more and one for operating a vehicle while intoxicated.

The elderly woman driver struck a traffic sign with her car as she narrowly avoided a large tree, a light post and a brick bench along the entrance pathway.
Wilkerson has currently been held for a $5,055 cash bond following her arrest.
At this time, it is unknown what court Wilkerson will appear in and if she has a hearing scheduled soon.
The Daily Mail has reached out to Brian J Belding, the Jennings County Prosecutor for an attorney who could comment on Wilkerson’s behalf.
‘A Friendly Reminder: If you’ve had a few too many margaritas with dinner, please don’t get behind the wheel, and definitely don’t do donuts on the courthouse lawn,’ the Jennings County Sheriff’s Office wrote.
