Girl Gets Illinois DUI and Misses a Showing of Twilight: Breaking Dawn – TRAGEDY!!!!

As if this previous story wasn’t ridiculous enough, I couldn’t help but stumble upon this gem:

This past Saturday morning, 18-year old Olivia Ornelas was arrested for an Illinois DUI. As police questioned her, Ornelas revealed that she got intoxicated because she was so angry at her boyfriend for not taking her to see Twilight: Breaking Dawn this weekend.

Ornelas was charged with an IL DUI as well as underage drinking. Unfortunately, she couldn’t be charged with poor taste in movies.

Luckily there is an experienced Illinois DUI attorney who can fight her charges. However, we cannot guarantee he or she can get Ornelas a movie ticket.

Woman Seemingly Proud of Her Arizona DUI

Two thumbs up! Is that how she rates the experience of a DUI in Arizona? Yikes. Someone needs to get her priorities in order.

24-year old Michelle Watson was arrested in Prescott, Arizona on Thursday for a DUI. During the arrest, Watson was very aggressive and even kicked an officer in the crotch as the cops proceeded to handcuff her.  At least she refused a field sobriety test…?

A lot of us here in the office are curious if Watson is smart enough to hire an experienced AZ DUI attorney. If not, we’re wondering if jail will get a thumbs up from Watson, as well.

To Friend or Not To Friend: PA DUI Suspect Friends with Judge on Facebook

It’s a relief for many people when they get their court case dismissed. With the help of a skilled PA DUI attorney, you can get your PA DUI charges reduced or even dropped.

However, what if people found out that a DUI offender is friends with the court’s judge on Facebook? Does this look bad?

This seems to be the case in Philadelphia where people are speculating Judge Charles Hayden’s dismissal of key evidence in state house member Cherelle Parker’s DUI. Apparently, Hayden and Parker are friends on Facebook and people think this may give Parker an unfair advantage.

Yes, Parker is a politician and that creates a lot of speculation to begin with, but how integral is it that she is friends with the judge on Facebook?
