Mary Lou Retton, the erstwhile American gymnastics luminary, was apprehended in her West Virginian domicile on a misdemeanor DUI charge following a May 17th incident wherein law enforcement, responding to reports of a Porsche being operated in a manner suggestive of impairment, encountered the 57-year-old Retton exhibiting signs of inebriation – namely, discernible alcoholic effluvia, slurred articulation, and the presence of an open wine receptacle – and subsequently failed a field sobriety assessment, declined both preliminary breathalyzer and blood-alcohol content analyses, and was processed for release upon remittance of a $1,500 surety, with legal counsel Edmund J. Rollo thus far declining to proffer commentary on a situation arising in the wake of Retton's widely publicised convalescence from a rare pneumonic affliction necessitating intensive respiratory support in the preceding annum.
