Police arrested Lily Stewart, a University of Georgia sorority student, early Sunday on charges of obstruction of a law enforcement officer and loitering/prowling. Stewart, 20, remains in jail with bail set at $4,000, according to police records obtained by TMZ.
Authorities previously arrested Stewart earlier this month for speeding. Officers first stopped her for driving 70 MPH in a 55 MPH zone, but she later exceeded 80 MPH after being pulled over. Her mugshot went viral, with social media users dubbing her the “world’s hottest college student.”
Another Legal Trouble For Lily Stewart
Stewart’s attorney, Stephen Morris, successfully dropped her initial speeding charge. He claimed online trolls targeted her after her mugshot gained widespread attention. However, her latest arrest suggests she may face a tougher legal battle.
Details regarding the obstruction charge remain unclear. Law enforcement has not yet provided specific information about what led to her arrest. TMZ reports that Stewart remains in custody and is awaiting further legal proceedings.
Since her first arrest, Stewart has received overwhelming online attention. She admitted to getting messages from young admirers and older men, with some offering to pay her bail. Her latest arrest will likely intensify public interest in her case.
Stewart’s legal troubles continue to grow, and authorities have not disclosed whether she faces additional charges. With her attorney previously arguing that social media exposure made her a target, it remains uncertain how this case will unfold.
