He really needs to get his act together!
Redmond O’Neal appeared in court yesterday where the judge ordered him to spend at least 30 days in the Wayside Detention Center to focus on relapse prevention. Redmond was arrested on December 29th on drug charges.
Judge Michael Tynan revealed in court that Redmond wrote him what appeared to be a 4-page letter front and back:
“I read a rather thoughtful letter. [I] wouldn’t go in to the family stuff in the letter, but you [Redmond] mention pride and how proud your family, friends and girlfriend are of you and you let them down.
“You are going to stay somewhere at some point. Recovery isn’t a walk in the park, you have a responsibility to yourself to stay sober, not your family.”
Redmond will be back in front of the judge on February 2nd. He’s facing up to six years in prison because his arrest on the 29th violates his probation terms from his last drug-related offense.
It sounds like he wants to do well, but addiction is a difficult thing to overcome and he’s struggling.
We hope he can do it!
