Melissa King, who reigned as Miss Delaware Teen USA, until her foray into Internet porn surfaced, has taken another step toward getting her life back in order. She pleaded guilty today (Apr. 22) to one count of being a minor in possession of alcohol, a misdemeanor offense.
King was 19 when she was stopped by police in the Maryland resort town of Ocean City. Police discovered a half-empty bottle of Captain Morgan in her truck. The legal drinking age is 21.
As part of her guilty plea she was placed on one year’s unsupervised probation. If she stays out of trouble during that time, her conviction likely will be expunged. Because she was between 18 and 21, penalties are relatively minor; she faced a $500 fine.

Contrary to a report in gossip site TMZ, no jail time is associated with a conviction. But a subsequent offense could boost the fine to $1,000.
There was no word on a second outstanding warrant from Maryland alleging that she stole money from the town of Ocean City in June last summer. That was the same month she was filming a video for a porn site. She said during and interview with the site that she was doing porn because she needed the money.
King reportedly was paid $1,500 for the video, but the porn site turned her down when she asked to shoot another because she was too “frigid.”

But that was the least of her problems. She was crowned Miss Delaware Teen USA 2013 last November after reigning as Miss Delaware International 2012.
In February, she voluntarily gave up her Miss Delaware Teen crown after her porn dalliance was revealed by the local Delaware News Journal. At the time, the porn site was promoting her video claiming she was a state beauty pageant queen.
Her arrest warrants were for failing to appear in court to answer the charges.
Oddly, King recently tweeted about looking forward to returning to Ocean City, again, to work for the summer. But it’s unknown whether she meant Ocean City, Md., or similarly named city in New Jersey. King’s lawyer J. Gregory Hannigan of Hagerstown, Md. told the court Melissa plans to go to college.
