Comforter Crime Stories - Part 6

The Chronicle Herald in Nova Scotia recently reported that the Mounted Police are reviewing the status of an officer who was acquitted of operating her vehicle while impaired by alcohol.

The officer in question had blood alcohol readings that were .19 and .18, or 190 and 180 milligrams of alcohol in 100 milliliters of blood. This was more than twice the legal limit of .08.

Apparently the local court judge ruled that while the officer was impaired and had open liquor in the vehicle, there was no evidence that the officer intended to drive her car that night.

In acquitting her, the judge noted that the officer had three comforters in her car, the car keys were not in the ignition, thus, the car was not running, and the emergency brake was on. Thus, there was little chance that the officer was driving the car.

In February, Nova Scotia's overnight temperatures are typically around 15 degrees Fahrenheit. The Royal Mounted police officer did one thing right by having three comforters in her car. Comforters, especially down comforters, provide some of the best warmth and insulation and help take the chill out of cold nights. Especially in Nova Scotia.

Duvet Covers

A duvet cover is another name for a comforter cover. Duvet covers protect a comforter from dirt, oils, hair and stains and are substatially easier to clean than a comforter, especially a down comforter.

Duvet covers are also an easy way to redecorate a room. Duvet covers come in many different styles, colors and patterns. They are easy to slip on and off a comforter, thus, changing the look and feel of a bedroom is a snap.
