Tatupu Pleads Guilty to DUI, Sentenced to Day in Jail

Seahawks Pro-Bowl MLB Lofa Tatupu pled guilty today to a May 10 DUI charge and was sentenced to one day in jail by Kirkland Municipal Court Judge Michael Lambo. Tatupu was charged after speeding and driving erratically in a Hyundai after a late night on the Kirkland night club circuit. Two hours after his arrest, Tatupu's blood alcohol level tested at 0.155 and 0.158, nearly twice the legal limit. Tatupu will also pay $1,255 in fines. At $7 million in annual salary, the fine is the equivalent of 10.2 seconds of on-field play for Tatupu, or a kick-off with a decent run-back. As a result of the verdict, Tatupu also faces NFL and team sanctions. more ›
