Sandra Bullock's Car Crash Assailant Pleas Guilty Driving 5/28/08
The woman who crashed into Sandra Bullock's car last month (Apr08) has
pleaded guilty to drink driving. Bullock and husband Jesse James were
struck by another vehicle on 18 April (08) while driving in
Massachusetts, where the actress is currently shooting a new movie.
Lucille Gatchell, 64, entered a standard not guilty plea at the time of
her arraignment on 22 April - but she changed her plea to guilty at a
hearing in a court in the state on Tuesday (27May08).
Gatchell has been placed on probation for a year and ordered to complete
an alcohol safety education program. Her driving license has also been
suspended and she has been ordered to pay all associated fines and fees.
According to People.com, Gatchell's lawyers share her "gratitude to Ms.
Bullock and Mr. James for what she understands was their concern for her
well being after the accident". No one was injured in the incident.
