By KOMO StaffThe former Seattle police officer who was caught driving with a 0.47 blood alcohol level earlier this month was arrested at her home Thursday afternoon, Trooper Jeff Merrill said.
Merrill said the state patrol and King County prosecutors sought and obtained a $250,000 warrant for Deanna F. Jarrett's arrest on Thursday morning, stating she was an imminent threat to public safety.
Troopers served the warrant at Jarrett's house at 4 p.m. Merrill said she was uncooperative and forced troopers to remove an air conditioning unit to gain access into the house.
When Jarrett finally surrendered, Merill said she was belligerent and intoxicated.
She was booked into the King County Jail.
Court documents show that Deana Francine Jarrett was formerly known as Deana Francine Karst, a former Seattle police officer who sued the city for sexual harassment back in 1996.
Jarrett was jailed earlier this month after being caught with a record-high blood alcohol level, but was released on $500 bail.
Redmond police pulled Jarrett over on April 10 on suspicion of DUI. She refused a breathalyzer test and was booked into jail and released the next day.
Later that day, at 3:48 p.m., Jarrett rear-ended another car in the eastbound lanes of State Route 520 at Redmond Way. Police said she tried to convince the driver not to call police then drove away, only to run into a second car.
State troopers caught up to Jarrett and found her car littered with open vodka and beer containers. Troopers said Jarrett couldn't even stand up.
"She was unable to exit the car on her own," said Trooper Jeff Merrill. "She couldn't walk. She was just too intoxicated."
Troopers said Jarrett couldn't even manage to take a field sobriety test. They did get her to blow into a portable breathalyzer.
"It only takes a small puff of air," Merrill said.
Troopers said the number was one they'd never seen before - 0.47, which is six times the legal limit of 0.08. Troopers said that number is a new record high.
"We simply don't get people that impaired," Merrill said. "It takes years and years of continual drinking to build up a tolerance to be able to withstand that sort of intoxication level."
Sources tell KOMO News that Jarrett's blood alcohol level proved to be even higher when she was given a blood test at Evergreen Hospital.

Your life is useless. I don't care how far of a drive it is. Obviously you think it's cool to spout off stupid shyt on the internet if you're gonna tell this whole forum you drink and drive. 4 miles or 40, there's still just as good of a chance of you killing an innocent person or yourself. Why don't you just sit on the thought that what if you were driving and got into a head on collision with one of your parents or siblings....
(girlfriend was driving my truck for the first time, ive never let her drive it before. thats why it was sketchy for me. i just let the other guy persure his rant)
but thanks anyways.
Nice way of backing out of an idiotic statement.
hahahaha, as if i really give a **** about what an alcoholic says on a car audio forum.
im feelin a beer, what about you?
BAc peaks a few hours after the inital drink... then you start with the downer effect, 19 beers would not be .38 or whatever, unless u did a funnel where it would all peak at the same time... Ive blow a .307 before and was messed up, and i have a huge tolerance, .. .but there was a autoupsy report on a guy who was found dead with a .7+ , But dead, i believe the largest BAC by someone who lived was .60x .. Thats all about all i learned in class
Wether I drink a lot or not, I still have more common sense than you. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Finally Has Bass Again
I'm a little lad that loves berries and cream
because i know ive had too much and let my girlfriend who has never driven anything bigger than her 88 jeep drive my pride and joy? hm, your right, i must be an idiot.
i just ate a big red candle.
Keep trying to play off you're lame excuse.
Either;
1.) You made the original comment without mentioning your girlfriend because she really wasn't there and you were really drinking and driving
or
2.) You left her out thinking that you'd look cool by drinking and driving. Then when you get called out about it, you mention her to save your ass.
Either way, you've been proven an idiot. I'm done going back and forth with you because there's no point arguing with a moron.
ya caught me. i try and pose to be something im not to impress a bunch of people who are here to talk about audio systems. OMG, you totally broke me down.
it all started in childhood, i was always picked last for dodgeball, sat by myself at lunch, girls never talked to me. later in highschool, it grew even further. never got to play sports, wedgies in the locker room, picked up and held against the wall for my lunch money. in college my life went into a downward spiral of depression, ultimately leading to drugs and alcohol. at first, weed and beer. growing immune to the highs they previously gave me, i look for something harder. coke, crack, herorin, and all the cheap hard liquors. couldnt afford the drugs, so turned to the cheaper alternative, alcohol. you broke me down, turned me inside out. youve opened my eyes, and all i can do it thank you. what do i owe you for the years of therapy and hard times youve saved me? id offer you money, but my addictions have greedily robbed me of that pleasure. honestly, i dont think i could ever repay what youve done for me.
You're welcome. lol @ inside out. Way to make yourself look a bit ****.
Anyway, I'm sure the original poster of this thread will be fine. If he was able to get onto a computer to make a thread, obviously it's not bad enough.
way to turn a previously non-**** comment into a really **** comment. got alittle splash of *** in with the alcoholism, do we?
lol, you can't get enough of me can you? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif
Get back on topic. You're the one saying I turned you inside out like a chinese finger trap. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eyebrow.gif.fe2c18d8720fe8c7eaed347b21ea05a5.gif
But yeah. Seems 95% of the threads here get dragged off topic. I think the moral of this thread is;
Don't drink more than you can handle and then get on a car audio forum and make a thread about it. Instead, get rest and consult a physician/hospital if need be.
you personally attacked me because i didnt tell you every little detail about my personal life. your the shithead. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif
so therefore, you must say sorry.

Its called manhood. Welcome to it. You're lucky you didn't wakeup with a beat-ass beezy next to you, and just a hangover.
My first hangover was after 13 shots of 151.
