So how fair is it to lower it (to .08 out here) and convict today for what was not a crime yesterday?
.12 really will not lead to significant impairment, in the real world, at least for a seasoned drinker, which I suspect she is.
She could beat this rap ...

"How Fair"? I think very fair. Don't forget she crashed her boat into an island and killed someone.
