Former soccer star Hope Solo has pleaded guilty to driving while impaired nearly four months after she was discovered passed out behind the wheel of a car in North Carolina, with her two-year-old twins in the vehicle.
The former US national team goalkeeper entered the plea on Monday and also faced charges of misdemeanour child abuse and resisting a public officer in relation to the 31 March incident. Solo’s lawyer Chris Clifton noted in an Associated Press report that those wo charges were dismissed voluntarily.
