Jan 22, 2008 - It's the second arrest for Nicole L. Silvey, 27, a Mount Olivet City Council member and Bracken County school teacher. She was arrested Saturday and charged with DUI and being in possession of an open alcohol container in a vehicle after an accident where she failed to negotiate a curve and struck a garage.
In May 2007, she engaged in a high speed chase with police that ended with an arrest when they found her in a private driveway with the car lights off. Last month, she was sentenced (sorta) on reduced charges of second-degree wanton endangerment, to 90 days in jail, to serve seven days with credit for time served; the balance was conditionally discharged after two years.
On the charge of fleeing or evading police, she also received a sentence of 90 days, served consecutive with the endangerment charge, to serve seven days with credit for time served and the balance conditionally discharged.
She was elected City Council in 2006. She had been a half-day social studies teacher but the class was discontinued. Arraignment was postponed until Feb. 12.
