Taking to social media, Bagwell clarified the reason for his arrest, saying it “was from the original offense years ago. I did get a recent sanction because I didn’t document a recent trip out of state properly.”

Just wanted to clarify to everyone that I am 11 months sober (tomorrow). I see there is news out that I had to spend time in jail for a DUI but this was from the original offense years ago. I did get a recent sanction because I didn’t document a recent trip out of state properly
