Reese Witherspoon and Agent Husband Arrested in DUI Incident

[Laurent]

She probably was frightened . . . that hubs was about to go to the metro jail for DUI.

As for being scared for her safety or life, I gotta give the side-eye. Atlanta isn't the idyllic, genteel place Blanche Devereaux would've had us believe it is - it's a big city with the accompanying problems - but Ms. Poon won't convince me to believe that she was scared witless that the cop wasn't legitimate. Oscar or not, she's not that good an actress.

Just stopped by to point and laugh at this bitch

I don't like her too much but that arrest sounds like total BS to me. I would fight that shit! That does NOT sound like disorderly conduct, at least not in my state. Edit: she is still a superbitch. I am just talking about the facts as relating to the charge.

shit, it sounds like it here in Texas. *at the risk of repeating this story* My brother was walking home drunk one night (that's right, walking home DRUNK) and had called his girlfriend who was en route to pick him up... and he was walking in a pasture along the road way and a cop pulled up and started yelling at him, he yelled back, cop calls for backup, girlfriend pulls up. Brother is eventually hog tied, gets the shit beat out of him by 5 fucking cops, he was arrested for assault on the cop and his girlfriend was arrested because she walked behind the car where they were beating the shit out of him...

^^^ That would not fly in my state either. And it's infuriating!

Ironically one of my clients was acquitted of disorderly conduct this morning under MUCH worse facts (yelling, screaming, verbally challenging a police officer). I don't say it often but thank God for our judges!

Reese, no body cares who you are.

I don't hate Reese and I'm actually pretty surprised to see her as the celebrity arrest of the week. I also agree with Mel in thinking that her statement was just right. And, I do actually believe she may have been frightened to see her husband being arrested. I know I would be, and I live in Orange County, CA, where the jails aren't exactly downtown LA lockup.

[SHELLEE]

Shit, in all honesty, If I get pulled over, even leaving work, I get very nervous. Mel, my sil and I have also been pulled over for WALKING in my neighborhood from a party. They didn't arrest us, but they opened my sil water to smell it. It's a good thing that when I saw the cop coming, I was able to throw my beer into someones yard. I hate to litter but fuck it.

I have been her just not famous and I didn't get arrested but my date did. I thought I was gonna take on the law. Yeah the law won.

[Flygirl]

Her poor brother Hairy will be crushed.

I thought that too for a minute but nah - it would only make it worse for Ms. Poon and she knows it.

[MsDark]

I'd be nervous as shit too if my husband were getting arrested. But I'd still have sense enough to know that mouthing off is only gonna make the situation worse. If anything, I'm gonna be as cooperative and polite as possible. Laura Jean Poon (that is funny as fuck) has been away from here (the south) for too long I think.

[sluce]

I'll bet they never would have arrested her if she didn't pull the "I'm a US citizen on US soil" and "do you know who I am?" shit.

[MsDark]

If she goes to the slammer I have no doubt she can handle herself
