Fox News Host Jeanine Pirro Clocked At 119 MPH

Fox News host and TV judge Jeanine Pirro is heading to court herself after being ticketed for excessive speeding Sunday in upstate New York.

According to the NYDaily News, State Police say Pirro's Cadillac was clocked driving 119 mph in a 65 mph zone when she was stopped by a trooper at about 1:15 p.m. Sunday afternoon in the Town of Nichols in Tioga County.

In a statement released by Fox News, Pirro said she was racing to see her sick mother in Elmira.

“I had been driving for hours to visit my ailing 89-year-old mom and didn’t realize how fast I was driving,” she said. “I believe in the rule of law and I will pay the consequences.”

A State Police spokesman said the only charge Pirro was hit with was speeding.

Pirro, 66, faces the loss of her driver’s license.

Pirro currently serves as the tough-talking host of the Fox News Channel show "Justice with Judge Jeanine." She recently interviewed President Trump and reportedly met with him at the White House.

Pirro previously hosted a weekday show on the CW called "Judge Jeanine Pirro," which was cancelled in 2011.
