Woman charged in Nashville officer's death had nearly triple legal BAC

The woman facing charges related to the death of a Metro Nashville Police Department officer was booked into jail on Monday morning, less than one hour before a massive memorial service was held for the fallen officer.

Juli Glisson, 40, is charged with aggravated vehicular homicide in connection to last week's death of Officer Eric Mumaw, a decorated 18-year veteran of the department.

She was being jailed on $150,000 Monday and, according to a newly released arrest warrant, her blood alcohol content at the time of the officer's death was nearly three times the legal limit of .08.

Glisson is due in Davidson County court Thursday for a hearing on the matter.

Mumaw, 44, died in the line of duty just before sunrise Thursday while attempting to rescue Glisson, who was reportedly suicidal and whose vehicle went into the frigid water of the Cumberland River in Madison.
