Karen Huger, a cast member of "The Real Housewives of Potomac," 60, was found guilty of multiple charges stemming from an incident this March, including charges of driving under the influence and while intoxicated, after she crashed her Maserati into a tree in her upscale Potomac neighborhood.

Court documents revealed that Huger had been drinking prior to the crash, and that she refused a field sobriety test and breathalyzer at the scene.

Here's police body camera footage after her March crash:

The crash, which caused significant damage but no reported injuries, has raised questions about Huger’s state of mind leading up to the incident. The reality star attributed her actions to emotional distress tied to grief over the loss of her parents.

Karen's Husband, Roy, arrives on the scene:

"With the passing of my Beloved Mother, Grief comes and goes in waves, and with Mother's Day approaching it has felt more like a tsunami," the Bravo star said. "Last night I met a girlfriend for dinner, we talked and brought up some very emotionally sensitive topics. I was crying on my way home and saw a car heading right for me."

Karen is arrested after her police interaction:

Despite her initial cooperation, she declined further testing, which ultimately factored into her subsequent charges.

Karen begins talking about her personal life with an officer:

Karen is escorted into the police station:

While Huger has yet to comment directly on the recently released footage, the video has sparked debate online about accountability and the pressures faced by public figures.

Karen refers to herself as "Thomas Jefferson's concubine," when speaking to authorities:

The incident has been a major storyline on "The Real Housewives of Potomac," with Huger addressing the fallout on-screen and in interviews.

Karen refuses to take a breathalyzer test:

A jury has since found Huger guilty on DUI, DWI, and negligent driving charges — which she plans on appealing. She was acquitted of reckless driving. Huger is scheduled to be sentenced on January 29, 2025.
