Paul Pelosi pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of driving under the influence and causing injury stemming from a May car crash in Northern California.
The complaint alleges that Pelosi had red and watery eyes, slurred speech and a strong odor of alcohol on his breath, and that he showed “signs of impairment” in field sobriety tests.
