Supermodel Bridget Hall DUI charge. Bridget Hall was arrested and charged with DUI last Saturday night, but the supermodel is fighting it. Hall claims she was completely sober.
Bridget Hall claims that she didn’t touch a drop of alcohol that night. “The police pulled me over saying I had swerved, asked a few questions. They asked me to do the sobriety tests, which went fine. When he asked me to do the Breathalyzer, I was happy to do it because I’d not had one drink that night. I had nothing to hide. I was totally shocked when it registered positive. I couldn’t believe it happened. I still can’t,” the supermodel said in a statement.
Hall, 32, has hired powerhouse lawyer Salvatore Strazzullo to fight her case. “Sometimes cops lie, sometimes machines malfunction. I will argue that Miss Hall should not have been pulled over in the first place for swerving. The roads in the Hamptons are not lit well, they have curves and bad potholes. She did not drink and drive. I want to examine this Breathalyzer and check its maintenance record,” Salvatore Strazzullo said in a statement.
Hall’s court date has been set for Sept. 30. “I moved here for the quiet life. I am not a party girl. I have a house out here in the woods and it’s beautiful and peaceful. It’s just me and my 6-month-old puppy. I am not dating anyone,” Bridget Hall said.
