The below was posted on the Fox News website.

Ann S. Banaszewski, 45, of Wheaton, was arrested Monday evening while driving away from a fast-food restaurant in the suburb 20 miles west of Chicago, police said. Three children were inside Banaszewski’s van when someone called police to report a suspected intoxicated driver, said Deputy Chief Tom Meloni.

Meloni would not release Banaszewski’s blood-alcohol level. He also declined to give the children’s ages or say whether Banaszewski had a previous record.

She was released on a personal recognizance bond. The DuPage County Circuit Court had no information Wednesday about a whether a court appearance had been scheduled.

A message left at Banaszewski’s home was not immediately returned and Meloni did not know whether she had an attorney.

Scalia, who began serving on the Supreme Court in 1986, has nine children.

The Georgia DUI blog has learned that attorney Don Ramsell will be representing her.  We don’t look for this case to be like many other high-profile DUI cases where the accused immediately comes out with an apology, a guilty plea and rehab. Ramsell, a board-certified member of the National College for DUI Defense, has a reputation as being a fighter.
