According to TMZ Sports, Mary Lou Retton was charged with DUI earlier this month. Court records show the Olympic gold medalist was hit with the misdemeanor count in Marion County, West Virginia, following a May 17 arrest...

quote:
According to court documents we obtained, Mary Lou was initially stopped by cops after she had allegedly been driving her grey Porche "all over the roadway."

The docs state while she was being questioned by police officers, she reeked of booze and slurred her words. She also had a container of wine in her passenger seat, the docs noted.

Mary Lou allegedly showed signs of impairment during all of her field sobriety testing, and after cops said she refused blood alcohol content tests, she was placed in custody.

Are you so dumb to not know it's not the DWI but instead the celebrity?

If I had a life threatening disease that I came back from I might be boozing it up too.

Now doing that and driving is another issue.

If I pull over MLR and she is inebriated, I’m getting her to call an uber and towing her vehicle.

She is an American hero, get her arse home and tow her car, throwing her in jail is stupid.
