Stephanie Pratt Deals Plea In DUI Case
Los Angeles, CA
Stephanie Pratt reached a plea deal on January 7, related to prior charges of driving under the influence. Her penalty goes beyond a slap on the wrist.
The Hills starlet Stephanie Pratt won’t serve jail time for having driven under the influence in October 2009, but she hasn’t been permitted to skip away care-free, either.People magazine reports that Pratt, 23, and Los Angeles prosecutors agreed to a plea deal on January 7. In place of DUI charges, she pleaded “no contest” to a single misdemeanor account of “exhibition of speed.” The reported sentence was a fine, three years of informal probation, two months of weekly Alcoholics Anonymous meetings and completion of a three-month alcohol education program. Steep or not, this sentence replaced a possible six months of jail time.
Pratt had been arrested for drunk driving on October 18, 2009, after she attended Holly Montag’s birthday party. Pratt told People shortly after that the arrest was “the worst thing to happen to me and, at the same time, it was the biggest blessing.”
Possibly it was blessing’s second helping, since Pratt said the same thing a few years back about getting arrested in Honolulu for drug possession and shoplifting. “I don’t think I would have been able to get off drugs without that huge wake-up call,” she told Us magazine in 2006.She was around 20 years old then. Aside from the arrests and publicized struggle with substances, Pratt, young as she is, has already been connected to an evident amount of plastic surgery. This is clear in photos that show major signs of lip augmentation. Pratt is also rumored to have had a rhinoplasty and breast implants.
“Stephanie Pratt is still very young, but it is apparent she has had a bit of work,” plastic surgeon Dr. Paul Nassif told MakeMeHeal.com. “Her lips are the most apparent, as they appear plumper than they once were. Her nose it a bit narrower and more perky as well. With someone as young as Stephanie, it is true that less can be more, and the work she has done may not have been of benefit to her look.”
Circumstances show that in Pratt’s case, less is certainly better – be it plastic surgery or recklessness.
