Arraignment delayed in alleged bribery of sheriff's deputy

RANCHO CUCAMONGA -- Arraignment was delayed today for a woman accused of bribing a San Bernardino County sheriff's deputy after a drunken driving arrest.

Marizella Perez, 28, was scheduled to be arraigned today, but the hearing was delayed to March 8, according to the court clerk's office.

Perez, of Rancho Cucamonga, is accused of bribing a sheriff's deputy, offering him $1,000 to let her go after she was arrested in September on suspicion of driving drunk.

The woman was pulled over in the area of Foothill and Day Creek boulevards because her car didn't have license plates.

A breath test reportedly yielded a blood-alcohol measurement of 0.287, more than three and a half times the legal limit.
