Texas Teacher Accused of DWI, Drug Charges

(Taylor, Texas) A 39-year-old eighth-grade teacher at Cameron Junior High School, Blair Dorner, was arrested this week for alleged DWI and possession of cocaine.

Dorner was initially pulled over by Taylor Police for allegedly "swerving all over the road."

According to the police report, the officer smelled “a strong odor of an intoxicating beverage,” and Dorner admitted to having a few beers. She did not pass a field sobriety test and was placed under arrest for DWI.

At the police department, Dorner refused to provide a blood specimen, said Captain Don Georgens. The Taylor Police Department only administers blood tests because the department does not have the breathalyzer equipment on site.

When impounding her vehicle, the officers noticed a white powdery substance in a baggy on the front seat. This field-tested positive for cocaine. Taylor police were not able to release the exact amount of cocaine, but it was less than 200 grams. This amount constitutes a second-degree felony.

Dorner was booked into custody.
