Posted: Fri Dec 02, 2005 8:32 pm Post subject: Two 'Lost' stars arrested for DUI |
|
|
Two stars of the Hawaii-based show "Lost" has been arrested.
Police say they were drinking and driving after midnight on the windward side.
Two actresses from the hit show were arrested for driving under the influence. They were in separate cars.
It's the second DUI offense for one of them.
Michelle Rodriguez plays tough girl Ana Lucia on the popular show.
Cynthia Watros portrays newcomer Libby.
According to police, the two were pulled over around 12:35 Thursday morning in Kailua.
Each posted $500 bail and were released.
The Los Angeles agency representing Watros had no comment. We haven't heard back yet from the Rodriguez team.
But this isn't her first run-in with the law.
Rodriguez was arrested over a fight with a roommate. She's been in trouble for hit-and-run and DUI in Hollywood, and was ordered into a three-month alcohol program. Rodriguez is no stranger to Hawaii -- she also starred in the North Shore flick "Blue Crush."
Police in Hawaii have been on closer lookout for drunk drivers since the state launched a program called 52/12 this year.
Drunk driving arrests are up, around 3,000 so far this year -- make that 3,002. |

Drunk driving is not cool. Either they were both really REALLY drunk... OR they were crying a lot. |

I added a comment about this mugshot in the post a picture thread,... I'll transfer it here, hold on...
Quote: | Okay, OT? Where did that mugshot come from? Kate was on the lamb! She was never arrested in her flashbacks! The Marshall nabbed her finally in Australia but I highly doubt that he would have taken a mug shot there. Is it just me or was she never arrested?
Con. Tin. UITY! People! Ugh. |

I heard on the lost forum thread they were 'intoxicant' while driving which means they weren't drinking I think so if they were under the influence it might have been drugs that would probably mean jailtime for sure. _________________

Well from the pictures they look pretty frigging high to me. Did you see their eyes!
Yes, they could have been crying, but they have this weird glazed-over look on their faces which leads me to believe they were probably partaking in a bit of the ole wacky tobaccy _________________

Quote: | 'Lost' arrests make national headlines
Andrew Pereira
The drunk driving arrests of Michelle Rodriguez and Cynthia Watros from the hit show "Lost" are making headlines across the globe.
According to police, one of the stars had twice the legal limit of alcohol in her system.
Rodriguez could be sent to jail for this latest brush with the law.
Authorties in Los Angeles are trying to find out if Rodriguez has violated the terms of her probation.
If so, it could send her to prison for more than a year.
Michelle Rodriguez and Cynthia Watros are seen every week on the hit TV show "Lost."
But new pictures are now being splashed all over newspapers and Hollywood shows.
The actresses were in separate cars.
They were pulled over for drunk driving early Thursday morning in Kailua after failing field sobriety tests.
Sources say Rodriguez tested twice above the legal alcohol limit.
Both were taken to the Kailua Police Station where they spent about two-and-a-half hours in this holding cell.
Thirty-seven-year-old Cynthia Watros portrays Libby -- a newcomer to the "Lost" cast.
Twenty-seven-year-old Michelle Rodriguez plays tough girl Ana Lucia.
According to the Los Angeles city attorney's office, Rodriguez pleaded no contest in June of last year to three misdemeanors: hit and run, drunk driving, and driving without a license.
Rodriguez completed a three-month alcohol program and is currently serving three years probation.
The L.A. city attorney is contacting Honolulu authorities about her DUI arrest on Oahu.
"A judge will determine if she's violated the terms of her probation, and if so she could face the maximum penalty on each of the counts, which is six months in jail for each count," says Frank Mateljan, L.A. city attorney's office.
And although it's unlikely she would receive a maximum sentence, a year and a half in jail could make Rodriguez disappear from "Lost."
Rodriguez and Watros are both due in Kaneohe District Court December 29.

Well according to that it was alcohol but looks like Rodriguez could be in serious doo doo for past offences. _________________

Hobbes, you're sending mixed signals!
Okay, so yeah, Michelle is not my favorite actress and not my favorite person right now either! But, if she goes to jail she will screw up the show! They just set up her character so well and now it could all go down the tubes! Nice.
Oh well, maybe the judge is a lost fan and will realize how the show will be royally screwed if he throws her in the slammer. Maybe house arrest where she can still work? They'd just have to shoot her scenes so we can't see her ankle tag. Haha, I am so nice. |
