Travis County DA Lehmberg to be released from jail Thursday
Travis County District Attorney Rosemary Lehmberg is scheduled to be released from jail Thursday, having finished her sentence early.
She was sentenced to 45 days in jail on April 19 after pleading guilty to driving while intoxicated, but Lehmberg was able to serve half of that under a law that gives credit for good behavior, a sheriff spokesman said.
Lehmberg also was sentenced to a $4,000 fine and a 180-day license suspension under a plea agreement.
Travis County sheriff’s deputies arrested Lehmberg, 63, on April 12 after a witness called 911 to report seeing a car driving for about a mile in a bike lane, swerving and veering into oncoming traffic, according to an arrest affidavit.
