Another celeb sent to the slammer
Michelle Rodriguez was sentenced on Wednesday to six months in jail for violating probation in a DUI case. "[She] admitted violating her probation by failing to provide proof of completion of her community service and for consuming alcohol three times while wearing an alcohol-monitoring device," the LA City Attorney's office said in a statement. The Lost alum must report to a Los Angeles County jail by December 24. A superior court judge also ruled that the actress is not to be granted an early release, despite LA's jail overcrowding. She was also ordered to complete 30 days of road clean-up duty. The City Attorney's office had alleged that Rodriguez turned in a false document showing that she completed one day of service on September 25, according to court filings. The actress later stated that she was in New York on that date. The 29-year-old had been serving an extended probation term for numerous driving infractions. In May 2006, Rodriguez served only four hours and 20 minutes of a two-month sentence at the same Lynwood jail where Paris Hilton completed her sentence.
