A female driver who crashed while suffering a life-threatening brain bleed was arrested at gunpoint and accused of being drunk or on drugs — then allegedly mocked and ignored by jail staff as she lay on the ground, unable to move for 24 hours, according to a lawsuit.

Nicole McClure, 40, is suing the Washington State Troopers and Thurston County Jail, accusing staff of ignoring her symptoms and depriving her of medical care as her condition worsened in March 2022.

She eventually needed to have part of her skull removed to relieve pressure building inside her brain from a frontal-lobe subdural hematoma, according to the Seattle Times.

“Nicole is a hardworking young woman who will never be the same again,” said her attorney, Anne Vankirk.

“Nicole suffers from severe traumatic brain injury and remains unable to care for herself or engage with life in meaningful ways.
