Eve sentenced to probation

Eve was arrested back in April after she was apprehended after her gold Maserati hit a road center divider which caused damage to her car.

In a court room last Thursday, the singer/actress pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor of drunk driving where her alcohol blood level was recorded at an amount above 0.08 percent.

As her punishment she was ordered to wear a SCRAM alcohol monitoring ankle bracelet for 45 days.

She was also order to enroll and attend a three month first offender alcohol education program, attend at least ten Alcoholics Anonymous meetings.

Her probation will last for about 36 month where she will have a set of laws she must follow but does not have to report to a parole officer.

Not that she has enough as a punishment as a first time offender but of course she had to be fine as well at an amount of $1,400.

The performer, whose full name is Eve Jihan Jeffers, was not injured during the April accident, in which she drove her car into a center divider on Hollywood Boulevard at 2:40 a.m.

At the scene police officers administered a Breathalyzer test and then took her into custody and booked her on suspicion of driving under the influence.

A hearing has been set for later this month as a followup, at which time Eve's lawyer must prove that the rapper has enrolled in an alcohol-education program and is still wearing the monitor anklet.

If she fails to complete any of the tasks she was ordered she may face jail time.

Our Thoughts
Seemingly this may seem too much of a punishment for a celebrity, but the judge treated the case like another other normal DUI case and dealt with it accordingly.
