120 in Maserati gets Actor Thomas Jane a DUI
San Diego DUI defense attorneys are told Thomas Jane has pleaded no contest to California DUI - drunk driving after he was clocked doing 120 mph in a Maserati.
The star of last year's movie "The Mist" and 2004's "The Punisher" pleaded no contest Tuesday to a misdemeanor count of driving under the influence. Jane wasn't in the Shafter courtroom but made the plea through his lawyer.
Jane, who's married to Emmy-winning "Medium" star Patricia Arquette, was sentenced to a year of probation, $1,700 in fines and must take alcohol abuse classes.
Two other alcohol and drug charges and two speeding tickets were dismissed.
Police stopped the 39-year-old actor twice on Interstate 5 in Kern County last March for speeding. After a third stop, he was arrested for drunken driving. www.sandiegoduilawyer.com/blog
