Earlier today, Lamar Odom was officially charged with DUI, regarding the night of August 30th. He was pulled over while driving on a freeway in Los Angeles. Police pulled him over for going to slow and suspected he was under the influence. Odom, however, refused to take any tests. He had his day in court today and it did not go well, but could of been worse. Hit the jump.

As per TMZ

TMZ broke the story … Lamar was arrested August 30 at 3:25 AM on the 101 Freeway after cops saw him driving too slow. He flunked several field sobriety tests and was then cuffed and taken to jail, where he REFUSED to submit to a blood alcohol test.

The fact that he refused the blood alcohol test actually helped him … in that normally a defendant would be charged with 2 counts of DUI — driving under the influence and driving with .08 or higher.

Here’s the bad news — By refusing to take the test … Lamar will have his driver’s license suspended for 1 year.

As we first reported, law enforcement sources told us they believed Lamar was under the influence of both drugs and alcohol.

If convicted … the likely outcome would be probation and an alcohol ed course since he’s a first-time offender. These cases are almost always plea bargained.

Lamar will be arraigned on Sept. 27.
