Fox Sports Broadcaster, and Older Brother of USC Quarterback John David Booty, Arrested for DUI, Gets Tasered During Booking Process - Josh Booty, 32, an announcer for Fox Sports, was reportedly picked up by the California Highway Patrol for alleged drunk driving early Wednesday morning. Orange County Sheriff's spokesperson Jim Amormino reported that "Booty was belligerent and uncooperative." Amormino says his deputies used a taser --"less than lethal force" -- to contain him. Orange County Sheriff's Lt. Hal Brotheim said that Booty "fell to the ground, struck his head on the table on the way to the ground and sustained a black eye." Booty was married to a "Price Is Right" "Barker's Beauty" named Rachel Reynolds. He is the spokesperson for TrueMRI in Beverly Hills, California, and is also involved with numerous radio and television commentating work in sports, including Sirius, Fox Sports, ESPN Radio, and the NFL Network.
In 2001, Booty was
drafted with the
177th pick out of
LSU by the Seattle
Seahawks and later
traded to the
Cleveland Browns,
spending three years
with them as a
backup. He signed a
two-year contract
with the Oakland
Raiders last March,
but was cut four
months later. --- Don Shapiro, Gambling911.com Originally published February 14, 2008 3:14 pm EST Find More News from Gambling911.com Here ----
