'Pulp Fiction' author sent to Jail

Did it have anything to do with his tweets  while on furlough?

Roger Avery who shared the award with "Quentin Tarantino" for best screenplay; movie "Pulp Fiction" was sentenced in September for Vehicular Manslaughter. Which driving drunk in his benz he hit a pedistrian who succumbed to his injuries and Rogers wife was also badly injured. In October tweets started appreaing on his twitter account.

"(“The building is an imposing example of the Brutalist architectural movement,” he wrote) and details of his furlough program"


“I wouldn’t doubt that it had something to do with those tweets,” Captain Bonfiglio told The Star. But on Monday he told The Associated Press that Mr. Avary’s Twitter posts had not played a major role in Mr. Avary’s incarceration.

So now he is back behind bars and no longer tweeting.

This is Taken from the LA Times

"On Thursday, after The Times published reports about the short messages, Avary was transferred to county jail. The tweets played a role in the decision, Bonfiglio said, but probation officials also had “security issues.”
