We missed this City Desk report that D.C. Shadow Senator Paul Strauss pleaded guilty last Friday on charges stemming from his DUI stop in Adams Morgan last year. Strauss is one of the District’s two elected shadow senators, a symbolic position charged with lobbying for statehood that carries few privileges and no pay. Following his guilty plea, Strauss received 11 months probation and must pay $400 in fines. The police account of Strauss’s arrest stated that he had a 0.16 percent blood-alcohol level, twice the legal limit, that he “appeared confused” and that he flashed his U.S. Senate badge at the arresting officer.
