Sambora Pleads Guilty To Drunk Driving

Bon Jovi star Richie Sambora has plea bargained his way out of a potential
prison term after accepting he was guilty of drunk driving in Laguna Beach,
Calif., last month.

Facing up to six months behind bars at his arraignment in May, the rocker
pleaded no contest to driving with a blood alcohol level of .08 or higher
in court on Tuesday.

As a result, a DUI charge was dismissed, together with a charge of child
endangerment for driving drunk with his daughter and her cousin as
passengers.

Prosecutors in the case refused to file the child endangerment charges,
despite prompting from Laguna Beach police officials.

Represented in court by Mel Gibson and Lindsay Lohan's former attorney,
Blair Berk, Sambora was ordered to pay fines and damages amounting an
estimated $1,600.

TMZ.com also reports the rocker will be placed on probation for three years
and must attend an alcohol education course

This monster should have gotten 20 years for DUI with his kid in the car
but money talks.
