Michael Phelps Arrested for DUI Earlier This Week



Michael Phelps in trouble, again.

Michael Phelps, who was once retired but came back out of retirement in 2012 to compete. The once gold medalist is sorry for what happened, but we are aware of the offense and we are unsure of who this man is that is driving recklessly around. So many celebrities are the ones that we follow and learn from. Many of the younger generation look up to them, yet when a gold medalist, someone you’re supposed to respect is caught with a DUI – what is this saying to those that look up to him?
This is not the first time that Phelps has been arrested for drinking under the influence of something. Back when he was 19, in 2004, he was arrested for a DWI. His fellow swimmers give statements stating that Phelps should have just hired a driver, he has the money to do such a thing and the rest of the teams hires drivers, so he should have too.
Phelps is not the only one who has ever been arrested for a DUI in the celebrity world.
Others Arrested for DUI
Amanda Bynes has recently been arrested for the same charge. She was pulled over for stopping in the middle of an intersection on the highway and the police officer noted that she was under the influence, and this gave way to her arrest. She was once in rehab a year ago, but has since moved in with her parents. The 28 year old went missing for a bit, and her parents state that she is not a child and they cannot keep her locked up, she does what she wants. While this might be a good thing to someone a bit more responsible, Bynes seemed to have another idea of how she was going to go about – and get her fame with this new arrest!
