Country Star Appears In Court Following Airport Arrest
Country music star Gretchen Wilson is in Enfield Superior Court today following a recent arrest at Bradley International Airport.
WINDSOR LOCKS, CT - Gretchen Wilson will make an appearance today at Enfield Superior Court following charges stemming from a dispute at Bradley International Airport, according to NBC. Wilson, 45, of Lebanon, Tenn., was arrested last month after acting belligerently toward officers and causing a disturbance at Bradley International Airport, according to a state police report.
She was charged with second-degree breach of peace following the incident. Wilson is best known for her song "Redneck Woman" and won a Grammy in 2004. She had come to Connecticut to perform a private show at Mohegan Sun.
In a recent interview, Wilson spoke about the coverage of the incident: "It's been really frustrating for me not to be able to talk about it, because people who know me know that I just wanna get it straight," she said. "I'm reading all of these headlines and am like, 'Oh gosh, it's so wrong. It's all so wrong!'"
