Guilty!

Ohio Supreme Court Justice Alice Robie Resnick pleaded guilty to DUI in court today.
Ohio Supreme Court Justice Alice Robie Resnick pleaded guilty Monday to drunken driving, lost her license for six months, paid $600 in fines and will spend three days in an alcohol treatment program.

Resnick, 65, of Toledo appeared in Bowling Green Municipal Court with her husband, retired state appellate judge Melvin Resnick, and her attorney, Sheldon Wittenberg of Toledo.

In a brief statement after the court appearance, Resnick, the state's only Democrat in a statewide office, again apologized for what happened.

That was a lot quicker than I was ever expecting. Nice to see her do the right thing and get it over with.
