Judge Margaret Huddleston Arrested for DUI

A Warren County judge is arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol, more than twice the legal limit.

Bowling Green Police say Family Court Judge Margaret Huddleston was stopped early Saturday morning in her driveway, after an officer noticed Huddleston's Mercedes hit the center line of the road five times as she was driving home.

Police say the 59 year old Huddleston had blood shot eyes, slurred speech, and blew a point one-seven-four on a field sobriety test, which is more than twice Kentucky's legal limit.

Huddleston was charged with careless driving and first-degree DUI.

She was arrested and lodged in Warren County Regional Jail, where she was later released on an unsecured bond.

For the past decade, Huddleston has been a judge for the court that handles divorce, child custody, visitation, child support, adoption, and termination of parental rights cases.

She's scheduled to appear in Judge John Brown's court on Monday March 10th at 1:30.
