Rebecca De Mornay: 3 Years Probation for DUI
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP) -February 5, 2008 Los Angeles Superior Court Judge H. Chester Horn also ordered
the 48-year-old actress to complete a three-month program for DUI
offenders and pay $350 plus unspecified penalties.
Defense attorney Blair Berk entered the plea on the behalf of De
Mornay, who wasn't in the courtroom for the brief hearing. A second
DUI charge was dismissed as a result of the plea, said Sandi
Gibbons, a spokeswoman with the Los Angeles County district
attorney's office.
De Mornay was arrested Oct. 30 for a traffic violation in
Beverly Hills when officers smelled alcohol on her breath.
De Mornay is best known for playing the prostitute who befriends
Tom Cruise's high school student in the 1983 film "Risky
Business." She also starred in the HBO surf drama "John From
Cincinnati" and the films "The Hand That Rocks The Cradle,"
"Lords of Dogtown" and "American Venus."
