Star of General Hospital, Haley Pullos, who plays Molly, has been caught up in a legal fight since a scary car crash almost a year ago. The crash shocked fans and the entertainment world. That’s because Pullos is facing serious charges like driving under the influence and hit-and-run. Now, there’s a new twist: reports say Pullos and her legal team might try to strike a plea deal. Let’s take a closer look at the ups and downs of this star’s journey.
General Hospital: Haley Pullos’ Legal Battle
It’s been a tough time for Haley Pullos since the bad car crash incident happened almost a year ago. Last year, the actress got caught in a devastating car crash. For that, Haley was charged with a felony count of DUI causing injury.
She was also charged with another felony count of driving with a blood alcohol content above the legal limit and a misdemeanor hit-and-run charge for allegedly colliding with a parked car and fleeing the scene.
Reports also say the police found edible marijuana wrappers and mini bottles of tequila in Pullos’ car. The police noticed that Haley showed signs of being drunk, such as slurred speech and the smell of alcohol. At first, General Hospital star Haley said she didn’t do anything wrong.
But now, she and her lawyers are thinking about making a deal with the court. Right now, she might have to go to jail for up to three years. However, if she is found guilty, she might have a shorter sentence, a house arrest, or she might not have to go to jail.
Making things even harder, the other driver in the crash, Courtney Wilder, has filed a lawsuit against Pullos. Wilder alleges that Pullos drove into oncoming traffic on a Pasadena freeway, which resulted in the collision.
The judge in charge, Judge Terry Smerling, has set another court date for April 8th. This could be really important because it might be Haley’s last chance to make a deal before going to a full trial. If they can’t make a deal, Haley might get the worst punishment.
Meanwhile, what’s happening with Haley has affected General Hospital. They first got someone else to play Molly temporarily, but now they’ve picked Kristen Vaganos to play her permanently. Even though it’s been tricky, Vaganos has been playing Molly since September, which seems to be bringing some stability.
As the court case progresses, fans and others are interested in Haley’s story both on and off the show. With the April court date approaching, nobody knows for sure what will happen, and this has left many wondering what’s next for the actress they love.
Regardless, we are here to provide you with every detail about Pullos’ ongoing case. So stay glued to Soap Opera Daily for your daily fix of General Hospital news and gossip!
