WOODLAND, Calif. – Inconsistencies have arisen in the California Highway Patrol investigation following the arrest of the daughter of Insurance Commissioner John Garamendi on suspicion of drunken driving, KCRA 3 Investigates has learned.
Ashley Garamendi, 20, suffered minor injuries in a fiery vehicle accident Saturday south of West Sacramento.
But the CHP insisted that she is not receiving any special treatment because of the political position of her father, who was recently elected lieutenant governor and is set to assume his new office next month.
"This is being treated just like any arrest and accident," said Phil Gruidl of the Woodland CHP office.
The CHP originally said Garamendi was arrested at University of California Davis Medical Center in Sacramento early Saturday.
But a CHP collision report regarding the incident said she was not arrested.
The CHP said Garamendi was involved in a wreck at about 10:20 a.m. Saturday along a rural stretch of Jefferson Boulevard in Yolo County.
The CHP then said Garamendi was arrested at the hospital at 12:20 p.m. that day.
But the collision report that the investigating officer said was filed hours after Garamendi left the hospital said she was not arrested.
Questions are also being raised as to why the CHP waited until Tuesday to file a criminal complaint requesting the Yolo County district attorney to formally charge Garamendi with three counts of driving under the influence.
The Garamendi family said Ashley Garamendi was out on Friday night celebrating the end of finals at the University of California, Davis.
The wreck occurred Saturday morning as Garamendi was driving from Davis to her father's home.
