I can honestly say I've never been drunk. The amount of alcohol I have consumed in my first 55 years wouldn't fill a two-liter bottle.

So, I have no idea what Ruby Rivera was feeling the morning of Feb. 7, 2016.

Rivera and a male Illinois gymnast damaged a menorah at the Chabad Center for Jewish Life on campus.

On July 7, Rivera pled guilty to a charge of criminal damage to property under $300, a Class A misdemeanor. She was given 12 months of court supervision, which continues into July. She paid fines and fees of more than $700.
