Case Closed

• Posted on Sat, Dec. 25, 2004

Former TV ''trend tracker'' Xxxx Xxxxxxx, arrested on a driving under the influence charge last June, pleaded no contest Monday to a reduced charge of reckless driving, a second-degree misdemeanor. Prosecutors dismissed the DUI. Miami-Dade County Judge Karen Mills-Francis found her guilty. Sentence: six months' non-reporting probation, a $250 fine plus $560.25 in court costs, and a $25 ''donation'' to Ryder Trauma Center. She must also perform community service. ''I'm happy this misunderstanding is behind me,'' says Xxxxx through her lawyer, Robert Reiff. Xxxxx, 49, is still doing some TV -- commercials for Coconut Grove Playhouse.
