Richard Linklater’s Daughter, Lorelei Linklater, Sentenced On Cocaine Possession Charge
Lorelei Linklater was arrested in May 2016 after troopers found pills in her car and a bag in her purse that contained cocaine.
The 23-year-old actress, who starred in her father’s Oscar-winning 2014 film Boyhood, was arrested after her car collided with another vehicle on a highway near Waco, Texas.
Last week, Waco District Judge Ralph Strother sentenced her to three years on deferred adjudication probation on the drug charge. He also fined her $1,000, according to editors at the Waco Tribune-Herald.
Linklater’s lawyer, Rob Swanton, said she made a mistake and accepted responsibility for it. He said the judge imposed a “very appropriate” punishment.
If she completes her probation successfully, Lorelei will avoid the conviction being permanently on her record.
Linklater is the daughter of Austin-based Richard Linklater, who directed Boyhood.
