‘Teen Mom’ Amber Portwood Asks Judge to Send Her to Jail

arrested

"I give up!"

O…M…G.

After months of trying to get sober and back on the straight-and-narrow (and failing miserably) Amber Portwood marched into court today and told the judge she was quitting her drug rehab program and that he should send her to jail, all while her lawyer sat stunned.

I’m not making this up. This actually happened today.

According to a story just posted by TMZ, “Amber fessed up today in court, telling the judge she hasn’t stayed clean since starting the program — and will always be a ‘bad girl.’”

She also admitted that she hates the drug rehab program she was placed into back in January to avoid a five-year jail sentence. (Um…no kidding!)

‘Teen Mom’ Star Amber Portwood Back in the Slammer!

"Hey guys, I'm back. Did I miss anything?"

Teen Mom star Amber Portwood is once again in trouble with the law. (Anyone else having deja vu after reading that?)

Anyway, Amber was arrested yesterday for violating some of the terms of her court-ordered drug rehab program.

According to The Herald Bulletin, the drug court felt that Amber was “falling short of fulfilling her obligations in the program while recuperating from surgery.”

Relax, guys; Amber didn’t join her fellow ‘Teen Mom’ co-stars and get breast implants or anything. According to the All The Teen Moms blog, Amber had surgery to remove her gall bladder.

I like that she's trying different facial expressions so that her mugs all look different. Variety is the spice of life!

‘Teen Mom’ Amber Portwood “Just Couldn’t Pee” For Drug Test!

"What do you want me to do? I just can't pee!"

Teen Mom star Amber Portwood may once again be in trouble with the law. (Oh, if I had a nickel for every story I have written that has started like that!) TMZ reported this morning that Amber did not complete this week’s court-mandated drug test, which is a violation of her probation. A judge will decide today if the incomplete drug test will send Amber to the slammer for five years.

However, Amber is claiming that she didn’t technically fail the test….she just failed to pee.

E! News got an exclusive statement from someone close to Amber.

“A source close to the 21-year-old tells E! News that Amber did indeed go for the required urine test, but she sat for over an hour and ‘just couldn’t pee,’ and media outlets, notably TMZ, spun it as if she never took it.”

If it’s between facing five years in jail and squeezing out a few drops, I’m going to pee!

‘Teen Mom’ Amber Portwood To Be Released From Jail, Cannot Be Sued by MTV

Although troubled Teen Mom star Amber Portwood has been in jail for over two months now, it looks like her time in the slammer will be coming to an end soon, now that the court has worked out a deal with…wait for it…MTV!

According to The Herald Bulletin Online, a halfway house for women in her hometown of Anderson, Indiana, has accepted Amber into their program as of this afternoon. She will complete her court-mandated rehab while living at Sister to Sister Ministries (not to be confused with this ‘Sister, Sister’ of course).

She was scheduled to go to drug court last week but her hearing was postponed so the courts could work out a deal with MTV, with whom Amber is still under contract with. (This seems a little odd, doesn’t it?) The court ruled that Amber’s contractual obligations to MTV would not be allowed to interfere with her completion of the drug rehab program. They also ruled that Amber can not be sued by MTV for violating her contract in any way.

‘Teen Mom’ Amber Portwood Eats Christmas Dinner in the Clink

"I want honey-glazed ham!"

The holidays were none to happy for troubled Teen Mom star Amber Portwood. Instead of spending time with her daughter Leah and munching on holiday treats, ol’ Amber instead spent Christmas in the Madison County Jail in Indiana, feasting on less-than-stellar holiday food.

Amber was “treated” to a holiday feast that included turkey sausage pizza, that’s topped with “a meat-like substance,” cold carrots, peas and pineapple, according to the TMZ.

"Must..eat..meat-like substance..."

I’ll bet after that meal, even one of those creepy, store-bought fruitcakes is sounding pretty good right now to Amber.

Amber is in the slammer for possession of a controlled substance and probation violations. Apparently when police went to her house on December 19, they found up to 40 pills, including muscle relaxers and Hydrocodone all mixed together in one bottle. (Surprise, surprise, Amber failed to produce a prescription for the pills.)

Brother of ‘Teen Mom’ Amber Portwood Defends His Sister After Her Arrest

December 2011

Again with the tarantula eyelashes?!

Oops, she did it again! Teen Mom star Amber Portwood is once again behind bars.

Amber was arrested at her house yesterday. According to E! Online, the cops came to Casa de Amber because she missed her latest parole hearing. While at the house, they discovered some mystery pills in Amber’s purse that she did not have a prescription for. Because of this, the cops slapped the cuffs on her and hauled her downtown to the clink.

This comes just days after it was revealed that Amber had violated at least five of her probation terms (which stemmed from her on-air beatdown of baby-daddy Gary Shirley).

However, he always-outspoken brother, Shawn Portwood (who is affectionately known as “Bubby” by Amber) wanted to make it clear that not everything we’ve heard about Amber’s troubles are true. He took to his blog to defend his sister and rebut the claims that she’s violated her probation.

“I want to debunk some of the outrageous claims,” he wrote this morning.
