You know, I thought that if you got arrested and convicted for DUI in CA underage, you got your license REVOKED for quite some time. I just remembered that.
On the other hand, the girl has a genuine addiction problem. Anyone who's had to deal with that, knows that she's not doing things out of her own accord; and beating addiction is very very difficult. It's hard when you're that age, have a problem the magnitude of hers, and then go out on your 21st birthday with "friends" , who almost certainly have possession of the things she's addicted to (aside from alcohol which you can get anywhere). She's so young and pretty and talented and I guess it just goes to show you that money does not fulfill your heart and soul. I feel really sad for her, but I do hope that they come down on her full force with the law. Otherwise, she's going to totally self destruct, and hopefully, not take anyone else with her. Some people really do have to hit rock bottom before they will accept help, and even then, it's a degrading, and difficult road. I wish her all the luck in the world.
