The Buffalo News reports on today's happenings in this ongoing saga that took place on Gasport's roads....
Former elementary teacher indicted on three felony DWI counts
Marcy L. Cole, the former Lockport fourth-grade teacher who was arrested four times in 14 months on drunken driving charges, pleaded not guilty today to three felony DWI counts in Niagara County Court.
Cole, 35, of Main Street, Gasport, also is charged with two felony counts of first-degree aggravated unlicensed operation and some lesser traffic charges in an 11-count indictment. If she were to be convicted on all charges, the maximum sentence would be 12 years in prison. Cole resigned last month from her teaching job after having been suspended with pay Jan. 8, when she was escorted out of Roy B. Kelley Elementary School, allegedly for being drunk in class.
Cole was indicted by a Niagara County grand jury on DWI charges stemming from incidents Oct. 7 and June 16 in Royalton, and Jan. 10 in the Town of Lockport.
She had pleaded guilty in Town of Lockport Court last year to misdemeanor DWI stemming from an April 19, 2007, arrest. She was fined $500.
