Mar 18 2008Danielle Fishel cries and avoids jail
Danielle Fishel (a.k.a. Topanga from Boy Meets World) went before a judge and bawled her eyes out for missing a court date in her DUI case. Apparently her calculated legal strategy worked and her probation was reinstated. Ah, sweet justice. TMZ reports:
Danielle Fishel went under radar as she appeared in a LA Courthouse earlier this year. She had failed to show for a hearing in an earlier DUI case and a warrant was issued for her arrest. Then last December, she was pulled over in the O.C. When cops ran her name in the computer, they found she had a warrant and busted her.
First off, she went under the radar because I guarantee at least half the comments will read "Who the hell is Danielle Fishel?" She was the love interest of Corey Matthews. DUH! God, people, open a book once in a while. Anyway, it's nice to know that you can simply cry your way out of jail. But, sadly, that didn't work for me. When I bawled before a judge they threw me right in the slammer. Mostly because it wasn't even my trial and I sort of parked my car in the juror box - upside down. So called "legal experts" will blame the bottle of Jager I drank for breakfast. I blame the county for letting me build a ramp in five minutes out in the parking lot. Honestly, what do I pay taxes for?
Dec 24 2007Danielle Fishel arrested for alleged DUI
Authorities announced this weekend that Danielle Fishel was arrested on a drunk driving warrant. You may remember Danielle from her role as Topanga on the ABC sitcom Boy Meets World. Now you can remember her as Susie McDrunkendrive. The Associated Press reports:
Fishel was arrested Thursday just before 5 a.m. after officers stopped a car she was in, said Newport Beach Sgt. James Rocker. She was released from jail shortly after her arrest.
This story is kind of vague. I don’t know whether Danielle Fishel was driving drunk when she was stopped by the police, or if she drove drunk on a previous occasion and was now being arrested for it. Hold up. Does that mean, if you make it home from the bar without getting caught, you’re not totally in the clear? Not good. I should probably bake my neighbors some muffins. That’ll smooth over parking my car in their dishwasher last night. Unless they want to be dicks about it.
