Another celebrity gets caught with DUI, this time its The Passion of the Christ director Mel Gibson. According to TMZ, Mel was arrested this morning at 2:36AM for suspicion of DUI and booked at 4:06AM. Spokesman for the Los Angeles Country Sheriff’s Department says:
Mel Gibson was arrested for suspicion of driving under the influence. He was released later this morning. The investigation was still ongoing, just like it would be with any other person.
Bail has been set at $5,000, which we guess is just pocket change for the Christ director.
Update:
Mel Gibson is an Anti-Semitic, that’s right folks, he hates Jews. Now we know what was really behind the movie The Passion of the Christ. During the arrest, Mel had an blood alcohol level of .12 which is .04 above the legal California limit.

I think they are coming down on Mel Gibson because he has not been in the media before for doing anything wrong. I think he is a great actor and everyone makes mistakes. I don’t suppose anyone else in hollywood has ever made and mistake.
