Former
Lost star Michelle Rodriguez was sentenced
Wednesday to six months in jail for failing to complete
community service and alcohol monitoring as part of her
probation from a previous drunk driving incident.
Rodriguez
appeared before superior court judge Daviann L. Mitchell,
who ordered her to report to the Los Angeles County
jail on Christmas Eve, the city attorney's office
said.
Rodriguez
''admitted violation of her probation by failing to provide
proof of community service and by consuming alcohol three
times while wearing an alcohol monitoring device,''
city attorney spokesman Frank Mateljan said.
''She did file a
document that said she completed community service on
September 25, but we obtained evidence that she was in New
York that day,'' Mateljan said.
The document was
required as part of 30 days of community service
Rodriguez was ordered to serve for violating probation in a
2003 drunken driving case.
Mitchell ordered
Rodriguez to complete the community service cleaning
streets and highways, and prohibited her from being granted
early release for work furlough or electronic
monitoring, Mateljan said.
Calls to
Rodriguez's attorney Wednesday were not immediately
returned.
Rodriguez was on
three years' probation after pleading no contest to
hit-and-run, driving on a suspended license, and drunken
driving in connection with two incidents in Hollywood
in 2003.
She violated her
probation when she was arrested in Hawaii on a drunken
driving charge in 2005.
Rodriguez was
ordered to spend 60 days in jail but served less than a day
because of jail overcrowding in May 2006. She was then
ordered to perform community service and remain on
probation until June 2009.
Rodriguez
appeared in one season of ABC's Lost. Her film
credits include The Fast and the Furious, Blue Crush,
and Girlfight. (AP)
