Drink-driver spared jail for dragging officer with Range Rover
A breathalyser test showed she was three times over the legal drink-drive limit. When Pc Ward requested a female officer to search her, none was available, and Desilva said she was leaving and attempted to drive away. Pc Ward held on to the steering wheel and the side of the Range Rover and was dragged along the road as she struck his hand and fingers to dislodge him; he then used pepper spray on her and on a female passenger who was trying to engage the vehicle's sport mode. Desilva, a lead diversity representative at the Royal College of Physicians and mother of four, later admitted causing serious injury by dangerous driving, assaulting an emergency worker and drink-driving at Liverpool Crown Court. Pc Ward suffered serious and lifelong injuries, now needs a crutch and a knee brace and developed post-traumatic stress disorder. Judge Garrett Byrne imposed a 28-month custodial sentence suspended for two years with 140 hours of unpaid work, citing the impact on her four children, two of whom have special educational needs, and banned her from driving for three years.
