This Thursday, former footballer Hope Solo was arrested by police officers when she was in a parking lot of a hypermarket in North Carolina aboard her vehicle with her two children. Although she was released hours later, three charges were imposed on the North American sports legend, who has chosen to remain silent after this episode.

As revealed by the news portal TMZ, the former goalkeeper of the United States national team will have to go to justice when she is summoned on charges of driving under the influence of alcohol (DWI), resisting arrest and a misdemeanor for putting minors (their children) at risk. It's just that his two children were in the vehicle at the time of the arrest.

The former 40-year-old, champion of a FIFA World Cup and two Olympic gold medals, was in the Walmart parking lot at Parkway Village Circle in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. After being captured, she was taken to the county jail, where she spent several hours until she was released.

“On the advice of the lawyer, Hope can't talk about this situation, but she wants everyone to know that her children are her life, that she was immediately released and is now home with her family, that the story is more comprehensive than the initial charges suggest, and that she awaits her chance to defend these charges,” Rich explained Nichols, lawyer for Hope Solo, in a brief release published by TMZ.

Hope Solo is married to former NFL player Jerramy Stevens and has two two-year-old twins, who were in the vehicle at the time of the arrest.

Who is considered to be the best American goalkeeper in history, has had several frictions with the law. In 2014, for example, she was accused of domestic violence in the fourth degree, by beating her half-sister's son. The case was concluded because of the little cooperation of the attacked person and he was free of guilt. By 2015, she was arrested along with her husband, Jerramy Stevens, for speeding in Los Angeles while traveling an official team car and for which the federation suspended her for 30 days.
