Russell’s attorney and the New Orleans prosecutor worked out a plea deal. Russell won’t have to serve any time in jail (he was facing six months) as long as he pays a $500 fine and performs 20 hours of community service by August 31. Russell’s attorney said the comedian plans to serve his community service by working with people struggling with addiction. Sounds like a good deal all around!
Remember when Russell Brand took a paparazzo’s iPhone, smashed it, and tossed it through a window? Well, Russell said he was doing it for Apple, but the New Orleans police didn’t buy it. They charged Russell with a misdemeanor criminal damage yesterday. Luckily, Russell won’t do any time in jail.
