His coworkers had to stop him and hold him down until police arrived after a chaotic work party where he became aggressive and was asked to leave. Refusing to comply with police breath tests after arrest, Gabriel added another layer of severity to his case—this wasn’t even his first drunk-driving conviction, dating back to 2014. But he’s since sought help, attending Alcoholics Anonymous and receiving family support. He pleaded guilty to failing to provide a specimen, admitting he intended to drive while intoxicated. The judge sentenced him to a three-year driving ban, community order, court costs, and victim surcharge—lighter than the usual jail term, thanks to his rehabilitation efforts.
