Do Not Pass Go, Do Not Collect $200


From the Honolulu Star-Bulletin:

"Michelle Rodriguez pleaded guilty to driving under the influence of an intoxicant during what was supposed to be the start of her trial at Kaneohe District Court this morning.

Deputy Prosecutor Sean Sanada urged District Judge James Dannenberg to sentence her to the maximum fine of $1,500 and 14 days in jail because she was already on probation for a DUI conviction in Los Angeles.

Rodriquez’ attorney Steven Barta said in her defense that she has been on steroid treatment ever since she got to Hawaii.

Rodriquez said she suffers from allergies to dust and cockroach feces. She said the steroid treatment made her manic.

Dannenberg gave her the choice of 240 hours of community service or five days in jail. Rodriguez chose jail and was to report back to the Kaneohe courthouse this afternoon to be taken into custody. She is set to serve her time at Oahu Community Correctional Center."


Daaaaaamn... she's going to OCCC? Talk about keeping it real. At least she got one day's credit for the night she was arrested.
