Addiction is a horrible disease that currently has no cure. All of the currently available treatments are imperfect, and relapse is extremely common. Yes, it’s bad that this woman relapsed and then drove drunk. I’m glad no one was injured. Publicly shaming her is unlikely to help her or anyone else suffering from this disease. One of the biggest impediments to people with this disease getting help is the shame associated with admitting you have it, and the shame associated with relapse. BB should be better than this.
