A Shocking Turn of Events

The fabulous Karen Huger is back in the limelight after a turbulent six months behind bars! The star of *Real Housewives of Potomac* was released on Tuesday from the Montgomery County Detention Center in Rockville, Maryland, following a sentence related to her 2024 DUI charges.

Early Release and New Restrictions

Initially sentenced to one year in prison, the 61-year-old reality star managed to get out six months earlier than expected. However, it's not quite smooth sailing just yet. According to reports from TMZ, Huger won’t be hitting the road anytime soon as she is prohibited from driving for another year.

Legal Trouble Details

When she was sentenced, Huger faced hefty fines amounting to $2,900 and was placed on five years of supervised probation. In addition, her car will require a Breathalyzer device, though it’s still unclear if these stipulations have changed with her early release.

The Incident That Sparked Controversy

In March of this year, Karen was found guilty of not just DUI but also negligent driving and failing to control her speed. Eyewitness reports described her operating her luxurious Maserati in an 'aggressive manner' before crashing into a pole. Compounding the drama, body-cam footage revealed her referring to herself as Thomas Jefferson’s 'concubine' while complimenting a firefighter’s looks!
