Going To Jail!

wenn1672738.jpg

Former Verlvet Revolver singer, Scott Weiland , has just been sentenced to jail following a DUI arrest in November 2007.

Weiland was charged with one misdemeanor count of driving under the influence of alcohol with a prior conviction. When he failed sobriety tests, Weiland then refused to take a blood or urine test. He was booked last November and released on a $40k bail.

Weiland must now serve 192 hours in county jail. That translates to 8 days.

He will have until Wednesday, May 28th to serve the sentence.

He must also complete an 18-month alcohol program and will be put on a 4 year summary probation.

Weiland also have to pay around $2,000 in fines.

If only he were more famous, he would have only spent less than one day in jail!

      As "backwards" as you Californians think we are here in the South, at least we put our criminals in jail! Second DUI = 8 days in jail?! Are you kidding me? And all those other celebrities getting no jail time or a couple hours?! WTF. If you pulled that shit in GA, you'd be in jail for at least a couple months for a second DUI, and up to a year for a 3rd. Crime is a joke in CA.

      Fuck you Perez, you no absolutely nothing about music. Stone Temple Pilots were fucking amazing. and I loved Velvet Revolver. Your 15 minutes are almost up Perez. Him and his bands will always have more credibility and success then you ever will.

      I heard this moron on Howard Stern the other day and he sounded completely retarded. He cannot articulate, speaks like a drugged out stutterer and overall is horrible.

      More famous? Do you know ANYTHING about ANYTHING, Perez? He's the lead singer of the Stone Temple Pilots, and amazing and influential band of the 90s. Velvet Revolver is not the only band he's been in. Anyways, he better get himself sorted out before he goes on tour with STP, because if he fucks this up and I…well, I guess I won't be very happy.

      Drunk driving is retarded. Scott Weiland is a sexy bitch. I'm sure he'll think twice before drinking and driving again.

      why is it that the 'average' person would lose their license for possibly TEN years for a second offense in some states. However, these celebrities get a slap on the wrist. Is it going to take until they kill someone for them to be taught a lesson, and what a clostly lesson that would be. It's just insane. This is what we teach our youth…be committed, get famous…drive drunk…get away with it…

      If you paid any attention at all to the Rock world, you'd know that Stone Temple Pilots is still widely loved and they were supposed to be touring. They were going to be coming to Chicago. I guess not any more.

      You really need to familiarize yourself with other areas of celebretardity before you make statements.
