I Am Shocked, Shocked

News Item: Paris Hilton Arrested For DUI.

Paris had better be careful, or else this sort of thing might adversely affect her reputation.

"Hilton said she had "one margarita" at the event."

Among those of us who prosecute DUI, this is known as "the proverbial two beers." EVERYONE has only ever had one or two drinks. I've only ever seen one defendant actually admit to more, while pleading No Contest (from memory):

JUDGE: ...so, how much did you have to drink?

DEFENDANT: A few.

JUDGE: How many is a few?

DEFENDANT: About ten.

JUDGE: Yeah, that's a few.
