[QUOTE]A high-ranking leader in the Episcopal Diocese of Maryland was charged Friday with manslaughter for allegedly driving drunk and sending text messages when she struck and killed cyclist Thomas Palermo last month, prosecutors said.
Bishop Suffagan Heather Elizabeth Cook turned herself into police mid-Friday afternoon and was being processed at Central Booking, police said. A court commissioner was expected to determine her bail in the evening, a judiciary spokeswoman said.
She faces numerous other charges including leaving the scene of a fatal accident and driving under the influence. Baltimore State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby said Cook's breath alcohol content was .22, nearly triple the legal limit in Maryland.[/QUOTE]

Good. Driving drunk is inexcusable even for the clergy...no, specially for the clergy, since they're technically not supposed to drink at all to begin with.
Your God won't help you now.. I hope the courts are just.

I haven't been able to find a source for that. Episcopal church looks fairly liberal in general though.
