Robert,

That is a heck of a story. 'course hindsight is always 20/20. Ya shoulda
huffed and puffed, gotten red in the face, made your eyes turn read -
then told that cop that by god if he didn't check her for booze you were
going to make a stink that could be smelled  from here  to
Washington..... then waited for the some witness to hear you and say it
again. That's crap. You need to go after that guy, as well as after her.
That cop was derelect in his duty.
