Whitehouses “deeply concerned and upset” by son’s arrest

In a joint statement, Senator Sheldon Whitehouse and his wife, Sandra, are commenting on the arrest today of their son, Alexander, on a charge of operating under the influence, in Middletown:

“We are deeply concerned and upset by our son’s poor judgment. But we love Alexander and we will deal with this as a family.”

Senator Whitehouse previously told the ProJo that his son was present, but did not drink, at a party held by Caleb Chafee, the son of Governor Chafee in May.
