Amanda Bynes Charged with DUI, Asks President Obama to Fire Arresting Officer

Truth rating: 10

(Los Angeles Sheriff's Department)

Amanda Bynes has officially been charged with DUI, more than two months after she was arrested following an incident in West Hollywood.

As Gossip Gop previously reported, the actress was taken into custody for driving under the influence on April 6 after allegedly swiping a police vehicle and driving off.

Bynes, who refused to take a Breathalyzer or blood test, is now facing an enhanced misdemeanor DUI charge, which carries a penalty of up to 6 months in jail and a minimum of 48 hours, according to TMZ.

After news of the charge broke late Tuesday, the former “What I Like About You” star took to Twitter ask the President – yes, really – for help with the situation.

“Hey @BarackObama… I don’t drink. Please fire the cop who arrested me,” Bynes tweeted.

She added, “I also don’t hit and run. The end.”

Bynes also wrote on Twitter last week, “I can’t help but laugh at all of you writing fake stories about me. I was not in any hit and runs. I don’t drink so the DUI is false.”

What do you think of Bynes’ comments?

    She used to be somewhat likeable…now shes making lindsay lohan look great!

    So if she doesn’t drink and drive and wasn’t charged with a DIU then why is there a mug shot on file?

    I watched someone die because of a drunk driver when I was 20. I have no sympathy whatsoever for those idiots. Hopefully California will learn to make people sere their sentences instead of letting them out early.

    i also don’t drink. and don’t sleep. and never eat. and never shower. fire my mom!

    First of all, what is WITH this hair color? How did my little pony colors become popular? This is the third young girl I have seen with it (I am getting old, fully own that, but still, its not an attractive color) moving on…

    I am really wondering why she figures the president should fire a police officer for detaining someone he believes under the influence and then arresting her when she refuses to test for being under the influence. These are the EXACT rules officer’s follow when they suspect anyone.

    I have no idea who this girl is, but just the air of “entitlement” in her actions makes me want to slap her really fricking hard. So, here is some free advice. 1. Learn how to drive. 2. Don’t text and drive idiot. 3. if you are sober but an officer asks you to prove it, do so.

    Your parents should be REALLY proud that you have grown up to be a spoiled, ignorant brat who thinks herself above the laws that are there to protect everyone, including you

    this broad is a liar. she is looking at a 6 month jail stint and facing a minimum of 48 hours?
    she will do about 15 minutes. you have to kill many people before they give you a week in the big house in California.

    Maybe California needs to reopen Alcatraz if they don’t have enough room. The law there seems like a complete joke especially for the stars.

    the my little pony hair color comment was awesome. lol. :)

    Come on people! – In order to charge her with DUI they need to show/prove that she was intoxicated. Swiping a police car is not proof of anything but crappy driving skills.

    If she refused a field sobriety test and to be breathalyzed they can just get a blood sample. She cannot refuse that. If they failed to do that, they cannot charge her. If the tests didn’t show her intoxicated they cannot charge her. If the tests showed her intoxicated, she will be convicted. No if, when or but. End of story.

    I don’t think she’s a liar. The prosecution and the courts clearly go much harder on celebrities which the Lohan case shows with obvious clarity.

  • D. Martin

    Your kidding right? They’re HARDER on celebrities? Lohan should have been put in jail for at least a year for all her antics. Anyone else WOULD have gotten the time. The courts are not hard ENOUGH on celebrities.

    Some celebrities have an overwhelming sense of entitlement. Even Paris Hilton was quoted as saying,”Those laws don’t apply to me.” They obviously have something on her or she would not have been charged — that I’ll agree on. And since she’s been formally charged then they have something. And, if they are accusing her of side-swiping a police car then they’d have to have the proof. Police cars have cameras. I’d say they have proof.

    in ct if you refuse the test you automatically get jail time.. why didn’t she take the test… if i wasn’t drunk …I would have been anxious to prove myself… shes lying.. and why hit his car and run… she better not get away with this… Obama better use his time to a much better use….

    Fire yourself for not taking responsibility (just like Bynes should be doing).

  • Regina1180

    I think Her behavior and her tweets show that this girl has problems.

  • Anonymous

    Unfortunately because she didn’t take a breath or blood test at the time they really have no evidence for the DUI charge. The weird thing is why isn’t she being charged with a hit and run? And seriously chick? Asking Obama to get involved is just ridiculous.

    Pretty sure Austea is joking.
