Scalia's daughter charged with DUI

WHEATON, Illinois (AP) -- Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia's daughter was arrested this week and charged with driving under the influence of alcohol and child endangerment, officials said Wednesday.

Ann S. Banaszewski, 45, of Wheaton, was arrested Monday evening while driving away from a fast-food restaurant in the suburb 20 miles west of Chicago, police said.

Three children were inside Banaszewski's van when someone called police to report a suspected intoxicated driver, said Deputy Chief Tom Meloni.

Meloni would not release Banaszewski's blood-alcohol level. He also declined to give the children's ages or say whether Banaszewski had a previous record.

Wheaton...sort of explains it though.

in charge.

They usually don't serve booze.
We're probably talking a bottle under the driver's seat.

:puke:

I cannot BELIEVE she was driving drunk with CHILDREN in the car!:grr: Throw her ass in jail.

women with children having play date/cocktail parties. I couldn't believe that these existed, and worse, there was a poll, and most people said it was perfectly fine.
Placing children in situations where their parents are drinking is high risk to me in the first place and to have those parents get behind the wheel of a car afterwards, is something I can't fathom.
