Story of Wife Stranded by Arrest Reaches Nelson An investigation, has been ordered by Gov. Gaylor Nelson, into events surrounding the case of the woman who spent the night in the family car, parked at Rock County JaH, after her husband was locked up there by the State Traffic Patrol. Cant.

E. O. Wolff, commander of the patrol in this area, told the Gazette Friday that the man, Demetrio Flores, a Texas farm hand headed for a farm job near Plainfield, was arrested by one of his officers for a driver's license violation north of Beloit. The man and his wife were brought to the jail where Flores was locked up for the night, since he had only 11.48 and could not post bond. Flores, according to his driver's record at the Motor Vehicle Department, was involved in an accident in May, I960, and his license was suspended in July, 1980.

He was released from the suspension June 16, 1961, and arrested the night of June19 after a patrol officer stopped him because of faulty taillights. Flores had no license with him and explained that a Missouri officer had kept the license after stopping him on the way here. A later check disclosed that Flores had a Texas license, but that it had expired last February. The state files also show that Flores lost his Wisconsin license Aug. 5, 1957, for drunken driving and would have been eligible for reinstatement without financial proof on Aug.

5 of this year, Capt. Wolff explained. Case Was Dismissed The arrest of Flores June 19 was dismissed the following morning in Municipal Court for lack of evidence, due to Confusion in the motor vehicle files where Flores had two separate record cards. In die meantime. Rock County deputies on the day shift discovered Mrs.

Flores sleeping in the family car in the jail lot She was offered use of jaU facilities, coffee and several dollars were contributed for food for her. Newspapers ran the story and Sheriff A. L. Capelle ordered mat no more cars belonging to sons locked up at the jail would be permitted to stay in (lit lot for any period of time, CapeUe added that last winter in a lar state petrol case a man's wifa and two children had spent several hours in their car before deputies made other arrangements. The driver involved wrote several heated letters to Southern Wisconsin newspapers in that case.

Gov. Nelson learned of the Flores case and ordered the patrol to make a thorough investigation of events surrounding the incident Sheriff Capelle said Saturday that his investigation at the jail disclosed that Mrs. Flores had been in the office with her husband and the arresting officer. After her husband was booked and locked up, the jailer told Mrs. Flores that tegulatkais forbid her staying in the unless committed by the court, and unless a matron were present.

No matron waj on duty that night Slept Car Before She told the jailer mat then was no one she could call for assistance. A second patrol officer arrived and asked permission to call Flores' employer at Plainfield, and die employer said he could neither furnish the required bond nor send anyone after Mrs. Flores, according to Capelle 's report. The jailer reported that after some talk with Mrs. Flores, one of the state officers said she would spend the night in the car.

The jailer told Capelle that ha was not aware that the car was in the jail lot and assumed that it had been left at the arrest some, since the sheriffs department practice is to do so. As a result, Capelle said, the jailer left no word for the day shift about the woman. The car was equipped with blankets and pillows and state officers said the Flores couple had apparently been sleeping in the car while en route to Wisconsin. Kenosha Co.
