Tatupu Pleads Guilty to Drunk Driving

Hawks LB Lofa Tatupu today plead guilty to drunken driving and was sentenced to a day in jail and will pay fines totaling up to $1,255.  “Lofa fully accepted responsibility by pleading guilty as charged. He asked for no special consideration and he received none,” said Tatupu’s lawyer, Jon Scott Fox. “He will pay his dues and put this matter behind him.”  He will serve the one day in jail before the Hawks report to camp on July 24th.  His license will also be suspended for 90 days and he’ll have an ignition interlock breath alcohol device installed in his car for one year.  The co-captain was stopped in Kirkland, home of the Seahawks’ headquarters and practice facility, at 2 a.m. May 10 for driving faster than 15 mph above the posted 35-mph limit.
