Despite protests from fan groups, Michelle Rodriguez has begun her stay in the slammer after violating probation for driving under the influence.

The actress was sentenced to 180 days in jail after violating her probation for driving under the influence. She had admitted failing to complete community service after submitting a false document to show she carried out the work on 25 September (07). The 29-year-old was also found to have consumed alcohol on at least three occasions while wearing a monitoring bracelet around her ankle, in violation of a probation requirement she refrain from drinking for 90 days.

Will she be out by the New Year? Sounds about right...
