From SeattlePI.com:
Vili Fualaau was in court Tuesaday in SeaTac for a pre-trial hearing on a drunken driving charge.
His lawyer accompanied him but not his wife and former sixth-grade teacher, Mary Kay Letourneau.
Another hearing is planned next month before the judge decides whether the case will go to trial.
Fualaau was pulled over for speeding Dec. 22 in SeaTac. A breath test revealed a 0.136 blood alcohol level. The state limit for drivers is 0.08.
.136 really isn’t that terrible, although he certainly shouldn’t have been driving.

Mary & Vili; sorry to read about the DUI.
As long as it is the last. I’ve always been on your side, & understand so well that at a certain point in life, age is just a number. The media keep harping on the age difference like a boxer pounding on the cut above his opponent’s eye. I’ve had relationships(longterm) w/older by(22 yrs) & younger by(20 yrs). I loved them both until they died. My husband now is 11 yrs younger..we’ve been together 16 yrs. Mary is right, younger is better, or at least speaking for myself. I understand that in the Samoan culture males are grown men at a younger age. All of Vili’s relatives seemed to be happy for him at the wedding. I know his Mom was happy that he had someone he really cared for, Older women are much revered in their culture. Besides Mary looks so young. I hope she gets to have her husband’s son before it is too late.
My love to both of them. Rose Truesdale.
