What is it with the wives of Chicago sports stars? A few years back, Antonio Davis's wife made headlines for her bouts of road rage and attacking fans at the UC.
Now Misty McMichael, the wife of former Bears wild man Steve "Mongo" McMichael, is making headlines after being arrested for speeding, marijuana possession and possession of an unregistered gun last week.
Lincolnshire police investigator John-Erik Anderson stated that, "[The arresting officer] asked the occupants about that and they admitted that earlier they had been smoking marijuana. He asked them if there was any illegal drugs in the car; they said there was."
A search of her car also revealed a loaded gun in the trunk that allegedly belonged to McMichael. Misty did not have a FOID card for the gun, but insisted that she had no knowledge of it being there at the time.
Mongo was quick to defend his wife, who is also pregnant, "Misty absolutely had not been smoking marijuana previous to being stopped by the police and told this fact to the police officer,'' That may be, but considering that the cop pulled her over for speeding smelled it, she didn't stop her passenger from smoking it in her car either.
Mongo also defended his wife in regards to the gun, “I also want to make clear that the marijuana found in the car did not belong to my wife nor did the gun in the trunk.”
If he placed the gun in the trunk without her knowledge, and she made headlines for her arrest, Chicagoist can only imagine the hot water Mongo's in with Misty about now. Not even a former NFL star can protect himself from a pissed off pregnant wife.

White trash with money.
that photo - my goodness.
Note to self: If you ever decide to get a trophy wife, a la Steve McMichael, just remember that, eventually, trophy wives can get jowls too."
Why doesn't anyone give the "Who me?" look anymore during mugshots? I see people smiling or smirking, or looking pompous. Look like your screwed. It might help your situation.
This trophy obviously has some dust/rust buildup. Sick and disgusting. Sounds like she's having an affair too. Poor Mongo. Rednecks suck worse than the reverends in No Lawndale.
#5,
Saw a picture of the guy that was arrested along with her. He's a sports photographer. He's a scrawny little runt that lives in some shit shack in Hermosa. If she was cheating on Mongo with him, he must know karate. One could argue that, well, you can't argue that. It's a sticky situation and probably getting busted with pot is easier than with your hand down her pants.
guest 4 - hilarious.
What are you talking about, she's still sexy..
I think she looks like aged Trixie. She's Lincoln Park in fifteen years.
