Being a good influence to others

Post by Gob »

Actress Estella Warren has been ordered to attend an 18-month alcohol program after pleading guilty to a DUI in Los Angeles.

The Planet of the Apes star allegedly crashed into three cars, attacked a police officer and then escaped custody while she was being booked back in May.

She was recaptured and charged with DUI, hit-and-run driving, battery on a cop and resisting arrest.

But Warren has avoided possible jail time after striking a deal with prosecutors.

According to TMZ.com, she has agreed to plead guilty to DUI and the remaining three charges against her have been dropped.

Warren has also been sentenced to 60 months of summary probation and ordered to pay over $US1900 ($A1838) in costs and penalties.

And the actress tells the gossip site she's glad to put the case to rest.

"I take my actions and their consequences very seriously. I can't express enough how grateful I am that no one was injured or hurt. Moving forward I am focusing all my efforts on my career, my family and being a good influence to others."

I have an alternative way she can become a "good influence to others", hit her with a huge fine one big enough to actually hurt, ban her from driving for ten years, give her a year in jail, then make her parade the streets where she crashed wearing a sandwich board with "I am a drunk driver" on it for a few months.
“If you trust in yourself, and believe in your dreams, and follow your star. . . you'll still get beaten by people who spent their time working hard and learning things and weren't so lazy.”
