Is it true that Tonya violated her probation by being caught with alcohol in late 2002?
No. Tonya and her friend Christopher Nolan were stopped by a forest ranger who discovered an unopened can of alcohol in their vehicle. Tonya was prosecuted for violating the terms of her probation, which include not drinking. Not only was the case dismissed, but the judge severely criticized the prosecutor bringing the case in the first place, chastising him for, in his words, “wasting the court’s time” with “potential violations only”.
