Tracy Morgan loses bling, gains ability to once again grow hair on ankle
Tracy Morgan has completed his probation for DUI, and has been OKed to remove the alcohol monitoring anklet he’s been wearing on and off for almost six months. He was originally ordered to wear the anklet thanks to everyone’s friend, beer. On May 25, Morgan was fitted for a Secure Continuous Remote Alcohol Monitoring device, which detects booze in sweat and vapors released through the skin. This was after he plead guilty in February to driving under the influence last year in New York—which, in turn, violated his probation stemming from his December 2005 DUI bust in Los Angeles. So yeah, this ain’t the first time Mr. Michelle Rodriguez.
Apparently Morgan had a momentary lapse of common sense, or ran face first into an open bar because he admitted to drinking alcohol on Aug. 4, a violation of his probation that got him another 80 days in the loving company of his SCRAM ankle bracelet.
However last week Morgan removed the anklet way before it was suppose to come off. But Morgan did manage to catch a break. On Tuesday, a Los Angeles County Judge told Morgan’s attorney, his “probation terms have been fulfilled.” Before making his decision, the judge looked over several letters submitted by medical doctors, and a letter from the SCRAM company verifying a medical issue. The court was given five photos showing proof of Morgan’s medical problem, which caused him to remove the SCRAM early. As of now, we do not know the exact nature of the ailment.
However in his defense, Morgan has been voluntarily going to a daily blood/breath test and has been attending AA meetings. All kidding aside, we wish him the best in hopes of recovering.
Coming up tomorrow, remember a couple years ago when there was no such thing as 30 Rock? Well you get to relive that time thanks to an hour long My Name is Earl. New 30 Rock next week.
