A Family Affair

Mayor's Daughter Arrested

Tulsa Mayor Kathy Taylor acknowledged Friday that her daughter, 24-year-old Elizabeth Frame, was arrested early Friday morning for drunk driving. A Tulsa Police report says an officer pulled over Frame’s vehicle just before 2 a.m. Friday near 15th and Cincinnati for running a red light.

In the report, it states the officer smelled an odor of alcohol and asked Frame to get out of the car, where she failed sobriety field tests. The police report says Frame admitted to having 2 to 3 beers and was hopping around to maintain her balance. The report goes on to say Frame refused a breath test, stating she wanted to call her mother first for counsel.

Frame was arrested for a misdemeanor, first time DUI and was released on $1,000 bond.

The mayor said Friday it was a family matter, they are a strong family and would handle it privately.

A family matter? Handle it privately? Did I miss something here?
