Another Bad Break for Ex-Prisoner Lane Garrison | Today's News: Our Take | 11/1/2007
Prison Break's former Tweener, Lane Garrison, was sentenced on Wednesday to three years and four months in prison for the drunk-driving incident that resulted in the death of a 17-year-old passenger. "The public has the right to know that conduct such as this, causing devastation such as this" won't go unpunished, Superior Court Judge Elden S. Fox told the actor. "Unfortunately, in this case, you have to be the messenger." Just be sure to speak slowly when delivering that message to Paris and Nicole. — Ben Katner read more
Joe Simpson Makes Jailhouse Visit to Garrison | Today's News: Our Take | 9/26/2007
Lane "Tweener" Garrison is "surviving" in prison, Joe Simpson tells TVGuide.com. The former Prison Break star once lived with the Simpson family, and Joe, a producer and dad to Jessica and Ashlee, visited Garrison in Twin Towers Correctional Facility, an L.A. County jail last week. The actor is awaiting sentencing for vehicular manslaughter — a 17-year-old passenger died in a crash that occurred when the actor was driving drunk, on Dec. 2, 2006 — and could get more than six years. "He’s doing really good, but it’s a scary place. He’s a good kid with a great heart who’s had a horrible life," says Simpson, a former minister. Garrison, who has admitted to having been a teen thief, has his own cell, we’re told. "That’s helpful for his physical safety," Simpson said. "He’ll be all right" — Reported by Ileane Rudolph read more
Lane Garrison Begins 90-day Prison Stay | Today's News: Our Take | 8/25/2007
Former Prison Break star Lane Garrison checked in at 9:15 Friday morning to Chino State Prison for a 90-day evaluation, based on his Aug. 2 hearing. "He's holding up OK," Garrison's friend Andrew Gallery told TV Guide Friday afternoon. (Gallery directed the actor's emotional testimonial in the short anti-drinking documentary Graduation Day.)On Aug. 2, Judge Eldon Fox ordered prison officials to evaluate Garrison during this 90-day period to see if he is "suitable for probation," explained a representative of the Los Angeles District Attorney's office. When Garrison returns to Judge Fox's court on Oct. 31, if "he is deemed remorseful and suitable for probation," he will not likely serve additional prison time.An intoxicated Garrison was driving the car responsible for the December 2006 Beverly Hills crash that resulted in the death of 17-year-old Vahagn Setian and the serious injuries of two other teen passengers.Graduation Day, which is being produced by Bob Pack, whose own two youn... read more
Prison Break Con's Sentencing Delayed | Today's News: Our Take | 8/3/2007
Yesterday, Lane Garrison, who pleaded guilty to vehicular manslaughter and driving under the influence, was ordered to undergo 90 days' worth of evaluation by parole officers and psychologists in prison. Then, on Halloween, he will be sentenced — likely to probation and no further jail time. Since his involvement in the wreck that killed a 17-year-old, the actor has appeared to take responsibility for his actions, even going so far as to tape the most graphic PSA in recent memory. "I think [every day] about the bad decision I made," he reiterated in court. "All I can say to you is, 'I'm so sorry.'" The father of the deceased, for one, doesn't want to hear it. "He is an actor," he railed. "He is acting." The DA is majorly against the three-month observation, too, and is going to try to get Garrison four years in the pokey.
