Former Board of Supervisors candidate, House of Delegates candidate, and vice-chair of the Albemarle County Democratic Party Cynthia Neff has been arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol, CBS-19 reports. Neff was arrested overnight Saturday/Sunday on Proffit Road, near her home, after failing a field sobriety test. She has since been released from jail. In a remarkable coincidence, it was just ten days ago that Neff posted a $50,000 bond to get fellow-Democrat Chris Dumler out of jail after he was arrested on charges of forcible sodomy. In her mugshot, Neff is sporting what looks for all the world like a Mike Tyson-style facial tattoo, but that one must assume is face paint from an event that evening.
