February 10, 2004
TUCSON, ARIZONA -- Diana Ross was convicted Monday of driving under the influence and ordered to spend two days in jail.
Ross, who telephoned into the city court hearing from New York, pleaded no contest to DUI. Two related charges were dropped.
Tucson Magistrate T. Jay Cranshaw found Ross guilty of DUI and sentenced her to serve 48 hours in jail before March 9 and to complete at least 36 hours of alcohol-abuse treatment by Aug. 9. She also was assessed about $850 in fees and fines.
Ross asked no questions and had no comment during the hearing other than thanking the judge. Tucson police arrested her Dec. 30, 2002.
