Heather Locklear off the hook
Melrose Place and Spin City star Heather Locklear got her driving under the influence case dismissed. She pled to a much lesser offense.
Heather pled no contest to reckless driving, a misdemeanor. She’ll be placed on three years informal probation, pay a $700 fine, and she must attend a 12-hour drug education course.
Heather was arrested last September after she was allegedly driving under the influence of prescription meds. The D.A. says Locklear’s blood tests showed prescription drugs were indeed in her system. No alcohol was involved.
These arrests seem to be a common trend among celebrities. Heather got really lucky that she wasn’t charged with a DUI. She got a slap on the wrist considering what could have happened. I hope this is a wake up call to her.
They always get into trouble.
They sure do. The celebrities get a slap on the wrist while others would be thrown in jail.
