Charlene Lugar, GOP Senator's Wife, Pleads Guilty To Drunk Driving In Crash
Quote:
FAIRFAX, Va. � The wife of Republican U.S. Sen. Richard Lugar of Indiana has pleaded guilty to drunken driving in a crash with a parked car in Virginia.
The Virginia judge suspended a 30-day jail sentence but in a hearing Friday placed severe restrictions on Charlene Lugar's driver's license for the next year.
The 77-year-old was charged in November after hitting an unattended car in her McLean neighborhood in the Washington suburbs. Police spotted Lugar about two miles away, still behind the wheel while smoke rose from the hood of her Buick.
Court records indicate her blood-alcohol level was 0.11, above the legal limit of 0.08.
The senator's office declined comment. After the arrest, Lugar's office issued a statement saying he and his wife were "deeply sorry."

I guess that apparently extends to family members as well.
No bias there
