Pulp Fiction Killer!

Filed under: Busted!

wenn1628177.jpg

He pulled a Gayheart!

Academy Award-winning screenwriter Roger Avary, Pulp Fiction, was arrested for drunk driving in Ventura County this past weekend.

Making matters worse, Avary was so drunk that he crashed his car severely.

One of the passengers, Andreas Zini, died.

Avary's wife, Gretchen Avary, was ejected from the car and found in the roadway by police.

She was transported to Ojai Valley Community Hospital, where she was listed in stable condition.

Avary was booked into Ventura County Jail. He was charged with manslaughter and DUI. He was later released on $50,000 bail.

Jesus!

Get a fucking driver, people!!! Call a cab! Call a friend! Walk!!!!!!!

    OMG NO! I love Roger Avary.. he directed Rules of Attraction. He is a genius. Except for when it comes to life or death matters, obviously.

    His career is OVER, and so is his life pretty much. I can't believe it.. he will be in jail for years. This sucks. So sad for his wife and obviously even more so for the family of the woman who died. Jesus christ.

    You know, people are not listening. A man killed a woman because he got behind the wheel drunk. This happens a lot more often than we think. If you are going to drink, even just one, don't drive. Simple.

    DUMBASS! AND PPL DONT DEFEND GAYHEART. that dumb bitch was on her phone and went around cars that had stopped for a little boy and she hit him! fucking celebrities can get off the hook no matter what. hire a damn chaffeur or hail a taxi no matter what your status is.

    Re: nora – Um, who gives a shit? The person who died got exactly what was coming to them. Don't want to die in a drink driving accident, don't get in the fucking car with a drunk driver. As for the kid Gayheart smooshed, serves its retard parents right for not keeping the ill discinplined brat on a leash. If its too stupid to be taught how to do something as simple as crossing a road, then it was just Daddy Darwin stepping in to cure the gene pool.

    Follow John 'Fantastic Role Model' Mayer's example and call a friend! It's not that hard.

    P.S. Props to Mayer for his instrumental LoveStoned Interlude (by my fave J.T.).

    Douche does not even come close to describing this idiot! Wanna go on a fucking ye-ha and drink like a frat boy? Get a driver.
    Oh, and I love this piss ant $50,000 bail amount! Drunk, reckless, severe bodily injury, DEATH! Yeah, $50,000 covers that…
    Now he'll get some pricey lawyer/whore to try and cover his sorry ass.
    The bar should be set way higher for DWI and the like !
    It's like a fucking joke. Prayers for his VICTIMS family and his wife.

    You Americans should really start taking driving under the influence of alchol and/or drugs more seriuosly! You have to understand that alchol and a car is a very dangerous combination and that you really should NOT drink and drive because you could end up killing somebody!

    When you are driving the car, YOU are the captain of the ship. I won't put it in gear unless everybody is buckled up. If you know the driver is impaired ride at your own risk. $50,000.00 bond is covered with a check for $5,000.00. You pay ten percent. In two years his estate will be wiped out by fines, lawyers and the dead mans family.

  63. Shannon says – reply to this


    63

    That is exactly what I think. These people have enough money, I have no idea why they do not just pay a driver to hang out outside the club, bar, or convenience store. It makes absolutely no sense. Mr. Big did it, and he is a fictional New York tycoon for Pete's sake.

    why the fuck was he released?
    seriously, i dont care how much money anyone has, if you put other people's life in danger, let alone actually kill someone, you should be locked up for many years and have to suffer with your guilt, i dont care if your the queen, you should still be locked up.

    Either he was pretty wasted or there was something else going on in the car for the crash to be that serious. No mention of another car being involved so he must've been driving crazy to cause this kind of damage.

    And WHY would ANYONE get into a car with a drunk???? JEEZ! A taxi is an ABSOLUTE no-brainer. If someone's stupid enough to drive drunk, let them do it alone!!!!!!!!!

    CLEARLY, genius has nothing to do with COMMON SENSE!!!!!!!!!!!

    Rebecca Gayheart was not drunk when she hit a jaywalker, you can't use her as an example for this. This is about driving drunk, there are PLENTY of appropriate comparaisons you could have made — Nicole Ritchie driving the wrong way down the highway leaps to mind, let alone all of the other celebs who have been caught DUI.

    That's awful. Why are people so stupid? So now his friend is dead and his wife is in stable condition, and he'll have to live with that the rest of his life.
    Dumb, dumb, dumb. Why did they get in the car???

    A stupid irreplaceable mistake. I had an accident about 25 years ago where a little girl ran out in front of my car and was hit. Fortunately she survived the incident. The deeply moving part of this story was, I had been travelling towards a place to meet relatives, and this little girl lived about 70 miles away from where I was going, but as it turned out, she was actually related to me, and I found out latewr she and I were distant cousins. Freaky to say the least. My point is I was wary from that point on. Maybe this guy had a close call once before this, and didn't heed the warning. The law of attraction.

    you have obviously never been to Ojai. I grew up there, its a small town of less than 8,000… trying to get any type of cab there is like trying to get an STD at a nunnery.

    How "out of it" do YOU have to be to get into a car driven by a drunk? I'm not blaming the passengers, but why get into a car with someone you know was drinking heavily? Can someone explain?

    The people who got into the car with him, knowing full well that he was drunk, deserve what they got. It's one thing for a drunk to drive, but it's another for sober people( if the passengers were) to get into a car being driven by someone they know is drunk.

    I am a driver for a limo company in Los Angeles. I drive celebs around all the time, and people to parties. I know that hiring a car initially seems very expensive, and something you think you could do without…but stories like this just illustrate that the expense of hiring a car for the night is far less than the emotional, and fiscal payments you would have to make when you destroy your car, your life, and take the life of someone else. So looking at this story, is $50 and hour really too much to spend to guarantee a safe, sober driver to take you home? It's sad to see that people are so idiotic that they'd drive drunk when there are SOO many options out there.

    Sheesh just becuase thier celebrities doesn't give them the right to forget about safety of themselves and others. These people need to be reminded of thier duties in the public eye becuase people look up to some of these people. What example are they setting?

    Really what the hell?!?! This is a too often reoccurrance and these celebrities need to serve severely!! It's so tiring to hear these offenses when they can be completely avoided. What's the deal? Is it just me that I am sick and tired of hearing of how these drunks drive then injure and then at times KILL people?! BE RESPONSIBLE. Idiots!
