MICHELLE RODRIGUEZ IS FREE AS A BIRD.

So much for Michelle Rodriguez serving hard time for violating her probation with a drunk driving conviction. Michelle, who was supposed to serve 60 days in Los Angeles County jail, was released after a measly 4 hours and 27 minutes. A spokesperson for the jail said she was released early as party of a "book and release" program that has something or other to do with overcrowding and budget problems in Los Angeles jails. Rodriguez also qualified for this "book and release" because she was a non-violent offender and her sentence was under 90 days. Hmmm...so much for teaching someone a lesson about drinking and driving. Watch out on the streets kids, cuz Michelle Rodriguez could be plowing down one on a road near you!
