Nicole Richie Trial Delayed
June 23rd, 2007
A new date has been set for the diva starlet after a drunken driving charge was issued against her in December. With Paris Hilton, Richie’s long time close friend safely behind bars, she had been worried about her own potential trip there. It seems that Nicole’s lawyer won her a reprieve by convincing the judge to delay the trial. The new date is July 11th. In February the twenty five year old Richie plead not guilty to the charges against her. Nicole must be starting to get worried though. In California State the law says that anyone convicted twice in a ten year period of driving under the influence can receive between ninety days and a year behind bars. Because Nicole has a previous misdemeanour offence, a guilty verdict could see her following in the footsteps of her Simple Life co-star. Although she’s afraid she recently told David Letterman that she is willing to accept responsibility for her actions. My response to that is, then why did she plead not guilty? There is clearly a long road ahead for the Simple Life girls. Let’s hope they actually learn something along the way.
