Kimberly Scott Enters No-Contest Plea in Michigan DUI and Hit-and-Run Case

The plea means the case moves to sentencing without an admission of guilt.

Overview

  • Scott pleaded no contest to two misdemeanor counts in Macomb County for operating under the influence and failing to stop after a collision.
  • Sentencing is scheduled for June 17, 2026, and the charges carry a maximum penalty of up to 93 days in jail.
  • Prosecutors describe a mid-February crash in Chesterfield Township in which her Range Rover struck a parked pickup, pushed it more than 15 meters, and later hit her garage after she drove home.
  • The Macomb County Prosecutor's Office released her booking photo taken after her arrest, which put the case back in the spotlight.
  • Some reported details — including a 0.079 breath-test reading, statements about two margaritas, and children in the vehicle — originate from secondary outlets and have not been issued as official prosecutors’ statements.
