Vicki attended a party at the Greendale Dorms where she was given a drink by fellow guest Kevin. Unbeknownst to her, the drink had been spiked with a powerful sedative. After consuming the drink, Vicki began to feel dizzy and disoriented. In her impaired state, she wandered outside and got into her car, attempting to drive home. Unfortunately, Vicki lost control of the vehicle and caused a serious accident. She was arrested for DUI. Toxicology results came back after her arrest and showed her blood alcohol level at .06 and the presence of Rohypnol (date/rape drug). What defense should her public defender use for her?
