Mel Gibson DUI update.
On August 6, 2006, I wrote this post about Mel Gibson’s DUI and I predicted that he would plead guilty as quickly as possible in an attempt to end the public relations nightmare that he has caused himself. Well, I was right.
He pled no contest to a misdemeanor DUI charge Thursday and was sentenced to three years’ probation. Gibson did not appear but entered the plea through his attorney before Superior Court Judge Lawrence Mira. The two remaining counts in the original three-count complaint were dismissed. The arraignment was originally scheduled for Sept. 28 but was moved up — at the request of Gibson’s attorney.

Even I thought he would plead guilty and for the same reason.
