Hope Solo Receives Sentence After Being Arrested In Troubling DWI Case

Former US soccer star Hope Solo is still under hot water for a troubling arrest from earlier in the year.

After Solo was reportedly found passed out in her car with children in the back, she plead guilty to a DWI earlier in the week.

She called the situation the ‘worst mistake of her life’.

“It’s been a long road, but I’m slowly coming back from taking time off. I pride myself in motherhood and what my husband and I have done day in and day out for over two years throughout the pandemic with two-year old twins,” Solo wrote in a statement. “While I’m proud of us, it was incredibly hard and I made a huge mistake. Easily the worst mistake of my life. I underestimated what a destructive part of my life alcohol had become.

According to the Forsyth County district attorney’s office, Hope Solo will receive a sentence of 30 days in rehab, along with a suspended driver’s license for 24 months.

Hope Solo has been retired for several years now, and appears to be open about her struggles with alcoholism.

Now, she finds herself on a path to recovery, and hopefully she won’t be making any mistakes of this nature in the future.

We’re all hoping for the best for Hope Solo.
