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.
