Britney Spears Faces Reduced 'Wet Reckless' Charge in DUI Case

Prosecutors in Ventura County, California, are expected to offer pop star Britney Spears a plea deal for a "wet reckless" charge—a lesser offense typically reserved for first-time DUI offenders with low blood alcohol levels and no injuries or crashes involved. The deal would avoid more serious DUI penalties. Spears was arrested earlier this month after allegedly failing a field sobriety test. Her attorney has declined to comment on the pending offer.
