Fox Told To Get Booked, Or Face Arrest
A judge has warned actress Vivica A. Fox to get herself booked at a police station by December 11 or a warrant will be issued for her arrest. The Independence Day star was arrested in March after she was allegedly caught driving under the influence of alcohol (DUI) on a Los Angeles freeway. According to police, the 43-year-old was traveling at around 80 miles per hour in a 65 mile per hour zone. Fox, who denies two misdemeanor charges of drunk-driving, didn't attend her DUI hearing in Los Angeles on Monday - but a judge told her lawyer to make sure the actress has her fingerprints and mugshot taken before December 11. Should Fox not comply, then a bench warrant will be issued for her arrest, reports Tmz.com.
For several years I've made arguements that police arrest and book people, even if they're let go, just so the government can get everyone's fingerprints and mugshots.
The story above is further proof. Why would Vivica 'have' to be booked? Everyone knows her. She's a public figure. It's not like she can run.
Also, you'll note: The judge didn't say anything about spending a night in jail (which she should've at her arrest in March - and proceduraly fingerprinted and photographed), which she probably won't have to do, anyway. What with the current 'Star Immunity' going on.
They only want her to go in so they can get her prints and photos. That's all.

If they arrested her in March didn't they take her prints? I thought that was standard Procedure.

Yes. You are right. I don't know how she skirted that step.
In fact, they fingerprint and mugshot you before you even step foot inside the cell for the night....
...the cold, hard, hauntingly dirty white cell......
Don't ever go to jail. It sucks.

I didn't know you could skirt that step.
But I've never been jailed either.

Phil, If you ever go to jail, just say you're a celebrity. You'll probably be out within an hour.
Just make sure all your friends and family are awaiting your release to take many pictures and pretend to be paparazzi.
I've fingerprinted and mugshot...ed......and I've been fingerprinted and mugshot.....ed.
Ask me which side I'd rather be on...

Hes the star of "Phil TV." ;D Tonights episode, Gift Wrap ;D I do agree with Mahnarch there is too much big brother in our lives. How about those raider speed stands on the side of the road?
