Back in April, Amanda Bynes sideswiped a cop car and tried to drive off. She was arrested for DUI. Today, she was officially charged with one count of misdemeanor DUI but not charged with hit-and-run. Now the D.A. wants a sentencing enhancement because Amanda refused a breathalyzer or a blood test. Wait, you can do that? Apparently, you can, but if you’re convicted of a DUI, the penalties are more severe.
If convicted, Bynes faces a minimum of 48 hours in jail and a maximum of 6 months. Then again, this is LA and with “overcrowding” she’ll be in there for 30 seconds.
Shortly after this news broke, Amanda tweeted, “Hey @BarackObama… I don’t drink. Please fire the cop who arrested me. I also don’t hit and run. The end.”
Oh sure, Barack Obama will drop everything and get right on that. Your refusal to take a breathalyzer or a blood test is clearly an indication of your innocence. And those videos showing you drunkenly driving off are just conjecture. No need for a messy trial or witness testimony. Your word as a celebrity is all anyone needs.
Why not? Obama is the personal go to guy for all his celebrity pals. Maybe if he fixes this for her, she’ll throw him a celebrity fundraiser just like all of the rest of them. They all sit around toasting one another while our jobs and personal freedoms disappear.
