minx Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 naughty mary ann DRIGGS, Idaho - Dawn Wells, who played Mary Ann on "Gilligan's Island," is serving six months' unsupervised probation after allegedly being caught with marijuana in her car. She was sentenced Feb. 29 to five days in jail, fined $410.50 and placed on probation after pleading guilty to one count of reckless driving. Under a plea agreement, three misdemeanor counts — driving under the influence, possession of drug paraphernalia and possession of a controlled substance — were dropped. On Oct. 18, Teton County sheriff's Deputy Joseph Gutierrez arrested Wells as she was driving home from a surprise birthday party that was held for her. According to the sheriff's office report, Gutierrez pulled Wells over after noticing her swerve and repeatedly speed up and slow down. When Gutierrez asked about a marijuana smell, Wells said she'd just given a ride to three hitchhikers and had dropped them off when they began smoking something. Gutierrez found half-smoked joints and two small cases used to store marijuana. The 69-year-old Wells, founder of the Idaho Film and Television Institute and organizer of the region's annual family movie festival called the Spud Fest, then failed a sobriety test. Wells' lawyer, Ron Swafford, said that a friend of Wells' testified that he'd left a small amount of marijuana in the vehicle after using it that day, and that Wells was unaware of it. Swafford also said several witnesses were prepared to testify that Wells had very little to drink at the party and was not intoxicated when she left. He said she was swerving on the road because she was trying to find the heater controls in her new car. Quote

ken4ord Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 I always favored Mary-Ann over Ginger, and that had changed now. Couloir your sick man. Mrs. Howell = Ewww! Quote

chucK Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 Ok. "Hi Officer! No, I'm not high--I just play Ginger on TV" "oops, I meant Mary Ann." "Step out of the car please ma'am." Quote
archenemy Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 I prefer Ginger. Plus, Mary Ann is already in the clink. Quote
Weekend_Climberz Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 Funny thing is, back in like '98 Bob Denver was busted (Gilligan for those who are too young to know) for getting a package in the mail with a bunch of pot in it. Initially he said it was sent by Dawn Wells, but refused to divulge that information in the trial. Guess once Bob died, she decided to keep the packages for herself Quote
minx Posted March 12, 2008 Author Posted March 12, 2008 it nice to know that they remained friends years later Quote
sobo Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 Funny thing is, back in like '98 Bob Denver was busted (Gilligan for those who are too young to know).. And Maynard Krebs for those who are really too young to know. Quote
KaskadskyjKozak Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 It sure is a good thing we've removed this menace to society from the streets of America. Mary Ann could have done something really crazy while high - like eat a lot of doritos and veg on the couch watching TV or listening to pink floyd. whew! Quote
archenemy Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 Or, horror of horrors, watched reruns of her own show (during the filming of which she was probably high). Quote
sobo Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 watching reruns of yourself while you're high while you're high. Quote
