Jalen Rose, ESPN Employee, caught drunk driving

Jalen Rose, ESPN Employee, caught drunk driving
Jalen Rose, the former NBA player and Fab Five alum was arrested earlier this month for allegedly driving while under the influence of alcohol. He was arrested in Michigan. The incident took place on March 11th, when Rose’s Cadillac Escalade was reported by a passerby as having driven off an icy road.

Once the police arrived on the scene, Rose refused to take a breathalyzer and was instead sent to a hospital where a blood alcohol test was taken. Rose’s attorney has said that Rose is willing to cooperate with the Michigan authorities and address any issues in court and not with the press.

If Rose was indeed driving under the influence, then he should have known better than to do that. Celebrities and athletes are role models for plenty of kids around the world, and such antics can influence others kids to behave in the same way. If he was indeed drunk, then he could have certainly afforded a cab and gone home in one.
