Emmanuelle Neuville to police: “take me to jail!”… and they did
23-year-old Emmanuelle Neuville was jailed on March 23rd after asking to be taken to jail rather than going with her friends. Police responded to Rep John Lewis Way, where Neuville was on the floor with one friend holding her. The friend told officers that Neuville was very drunk and tried to run away from her. Neuville smelled of alcohol and had glossy watery eyes and slurred speech. Police gave all three a ride to the sober friend's car, but Neuville refused to leave the patrol car, asking police to take her to jail, instead. Dedicated to providing the best customer service to downtown Nashville patrons, the officers obliged her request and transported her to booking.
