UPDATED, 3:28 PM: Former General Hospital actress Haley Pullos was sentenced today to five years probation, 200 hours of community service and a nine-month alcohol program in connection with a wrong-way DUI crash last year on the Ventura (134) Freeway in Pasadena that left her and another driver injured.
Pullos, now 26, served three months behind bars following her plea to a felony DUI charge stemming from the April 29, 2023, collision. She was expected to be released from custody on Monday.
Pullos was also ordered to complete a mental health treatment program, to pay $8,260 in restitution to the victim and not to drive a motor vehicle for a year.
The actress — who appeared in a Pasadena courtroom in orange jail clothes — responded, “Yes, your honor,” when asked if she accepted the terms of her sentence.
Pullos was trapped in her mangled vehicle and had to be pulled from the wreckage by Pasadena Fire Department crews, according to the CHP. She and the other driver were both injured and taken to hospitals.
CHP investigators also said Pullos had been involved in an earlier hit- and-run crash before entering the 134 Freeway.
PREVIOUSLY on June 28, 2023: General Hospital star Haley Pullos was officially charged with two DUI felony counts and a misdemeanor stemming from the April 29 car crash when the actor allegedly drove her vehicle the wrong way on a Pasadena freeway and collided head-on with another car.
The driver of the other car was seriously injured and reportedly is suing Pullos.
The 24-year-old Pullos was charged today by the Los Angeles County D.A. with one felony count of driving under the influence of an alcoholic beverage causing injury; one felony count of driving with a .08% blood alcohol content causing injury; and one misdemeanor count of hit and run driving resulting in property damage.
She has pleaded not guilty. A preliminary hearing is set for July 27.
The accident occurred shortly before 1:30 a.m. on April 29, according to the California Highway Patrol. Pullos allegedly was traveling west at 60 mph when her white 2019 Ford swerved, crossed the dividing barrier and crashed into an eastbound vehicle.
Pullos has played Molly Lansing-Davis on the ABC soap since 2009. She has been absent from the series since the accident, with Holiday Mia Kriegel filling in the role at least on a temporary basis.
