A Wheaton resident was arrested Monday night and charged with drunken driving and child endangerment while driving with her three children from a local McDonald’s.

Why not simply report that she is Justice Scalia's daughter instead of the ludicrous headline.

[OldFriend]

Colorado police ticketed Coors for DUI about a block from his home.

You don't want embarrassment, don't commit crimes. And yes, I do consider driving drunk a crime.

[xsmommy]

i am hardly defending her actions, but the publicity is clearly intended to highlight the fact that she is Scalia's daughter, and releasing the booking photo, is clearly something not normally done.

[Polybius]

Stupid headline ... yeah, I guess his daughter would be considered "tied to Scalia."

"Woman tied to Hillary Clinton caught drunk and out of control."

[KoRn]

LOL!

She could be his second cousin's granddaughter by marriage or some nonsense like that. I didn't read the article, but I'm probably not far off on relevance lol.

[Diana in Wisconsin]

Oh, for Pete's Sake. She's his daughter and is 45 years old!

I hate the MSM. What a misleading (as always) headline!

[Diana in Wisconsin]

Exactly! Good catch. :)

Trying to go about your everyday business with a woman tied to you sounds like it would be very distracting, especially if she was drunk.

[Tax-chick]

Very impressive that Justice Scalia has accomplished so much, under the circumstances.

Gosh ,she looks like her father:

Ann S. Banaszewski, daughter of U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia.

[AmishDude]

She is his 45 year old daughter. What's Scalia supposed to do about it?

[johnny7]

There's a little resemblance... is that her booking photo?

[OldFriend]

I am not in the least blaming Scalia. Where did you get that impression?

[johnthebaptistmoore]

The mainstream media along with the D's will soon call for Justice Scalia's resignation from the Supreme Court of the United States!

[AmishDude]

You don't want embarrassment, don't commit crimes.

Whether or not she was embarassed is not the issue, Scalia's name is in the headline.

[CholeraJoe]

Wheaton, IL is in Hastert's district. Obviously this fact drove her to drink.

of his nine kids at least one is a very good priest in the Arlington diocese here and another a well-respected attorney here in DC. you hope all your kids stay on the straight and narrow, but you can't guarantee it, that's for sure.
