This will be a real test for her. If she has a drinking problem, she will slip and the prison will catch her drinking. If she doesn't respect the judges and MP rulings, she will operate a boat and get caught, the temptation is always in her face. If she drives her SUV recklessly, she will get caught, you know everyone is watching. This is her test.
The problem is that I don't want anyone to get involved in her recklessness. If I knew that every drunk operator was alone and only hit islands or trees and killed themselves, that would be OK by me. Unfortunately, we know that is not the case- it is usually the drunk who survives.
