  1. Aw’ fellers don’t be too hard on the lady…she just got sleepy after smoking a joint after a long day at the studio…too bad she wasn’t in CA where they’d probably given her a pass.
    Question is…is she a repeat offender?
    Who can check that out?

  2. And I am still hearing the SCREAMS, HOWLS, YELLS and SHOUTS of “RAAACCCCIIIISSSSMMMM!!!!” I never even heard of this woman until the initial reports of her arrest were released. I Googled her so as to be ‘enlightened’ with regards to her ‘FAME and FORTUNE’ and I looked at a clip of one of her ‘performances’. Frankly, it is my ‘humble’ opinion that her ‘comedy’ is TOTAL GARBAGE and IRRELEVANT RUBBISH! I hope that this woman gets the help that she so obviously and desperately needs to get and stay sober and drug free! A hearty and much appreciated Thank You to the person who made the initial call to 911 in order to alert them as to the presence of this MENACE out on the roads and to the Peachtree City Police Officer for his or her prompt response in locating and arresting her. A JOB WELL DONE!

    • Boulder, you must be listening to something else. Nowhere in any article I have read concerning this arrest did it indicate that the woman gave the police anything but full cooperation. In fact, in a separate article her mug shot even looked quite pleasant.

      Why don’t you quit trying to stir things up.

      I will however join you in thanking the police and the good Samaritan that called it in.
