DEPOSIT- District Attorney Shawn J. Smith, announced today that Katrina M. Lott, 45, of West Edmeston, New York, pleaded guilty to Driving While Intoxicated, a Class A Misdemeanor, and was sentenced to 3 years of probation, in Deposit Town Court on April 9, 2024.
On June 13, 2023, Lott was driving Northbound on County Route 8, when she lost control of her vehicle and drove into the ditch. Trooper Brandon Schubert responded to the crash scene and determined that Lott was likely under the influence of alcohol when open containers were spotted in the vehicle. His subsequent investigation determined that Lott had a blood alcohol content of .16% - two times the legal limit.
District Attorney Smith commends Trooper Schubert and Trooper Laurienzo for their thorough investigation of this case. “Drunk and impaired drivers selfishly risk the lives of other motorists and pedestrians whenever they get behind the wheel. My office will continue to work with law enforcement to remove impaired drivers from our roadways.”
