Mel Gibson Charged With Drunk Driving
Actor Faces Up To 6 Months In Jail For 3 Misdemeanor Counts
LOS ANGELES, Aug. 2, 2006
(CBS/AP) Mel Gibson was charged Wednesday with misdemeanor drunken
driving, having an elevated blood-alcohol level and having an open
container of liquor in his car.
The three counts were filed by Los Angeles County prosecutors five
days after Gibson was pulled over on Malibu's Pacific Coast Highway
for speeding and he made anti-Semitic comments at the arresting
deputy.
The open container violation, for a bottle of tequila allegedly found
in his car, is an infraction of the vehicle code.
The charges did not mention Gibson's self-described "belligerent
behavior" toward the deputy or any allegation of speeding. Arraignment
was set for Sept. 28 in Malibu Superior Court.
If convicted, Gibson faces up to six months in jail, the district
attorney's office said.
The Sheriff's Department said Gibson was stopped at 2:36 a.m. Friday
after being seen speeding at 87 mph in a 45-mph zone. Authorities said
his blood-alcohol level tested at 0.12 percent. A California driver is
legally intoxicated at 0.08 percent.

Maybe but the big question is why was the EXTREME SPEEDING matter
dropped . 87 in a 45 is super-violent and dangerous crime. One of
these days he's gonna kill someone if he hasn't already and bought his
way out of that too.
