Bravo Fitness Star Charged with Felony Assault on a Police Officer
by EG
Fitness guru Jackie Warner has been charged with felony assault on a police officer, misdemeanor DUI and misdemeanor hit and run, E! News reported on Monday.
According to Warner’s attorney, Shawn Holley, she’s been battling insomnia, which prompted her to be under the influence of a prescribed sleep aid.
“We have letters and reports from Jackie’s doctors which prove a long history of insomnia and which strongly support our contention that Jackie was driving unconscious after taking Ambien, which had been prescribed to her,” Holley told TMZ.
“I reached out to the D.A.’s Office weeks ago and was assured that deputies would review our reports before filing charges,” Holley added. “We are extremely disappointed that the D.A.’s Office filed these charges without reviewing our evidence, as promised.”
