Kiefer Sutherland Goes to Jail
It's going to be a sucky Christmas for Kiefer Sutherland, as the actor surrendered to jail yesterday. Kiefer was sentenced to 48 days in the slammer, for his September DUI arrest and for violating probation. "Mr. Sutherland is very polite and humble. He was very cooperative during the booking process," said a jail spokesman. "He will be issued an orange jumpsuit, and will be housed alone in a cell, since he'll be a long-term inmate."
The 24 star will likely serve the entire sentence, which is rare for the Hollywood folk. "Sutherland will be serving the 48 days in the Glendale City Jail, with no early release and no good time/work time credit, so we expect that he will serve the entire 48 days in jail," said a statement from the L.A. City Attorney's office. His new digs will consist of an 8 by 10 cell with a toilet, sink and water fountain. He will receive three meals a day (two hot, one cold) and will be allowed visitors between 1 p.m. and 4 p.m. for 15 minutes each. No more than two visits per day are allowed. He will be assigned to laundry and kitchen duty, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner to the other inmates, and as inmate worker he'll be allowed to roam the jail most of the day, as opposed to being confined to his cell.
It shouldn't be too bad for Kiefer, he can probably just pretend he's shooting a movie. For 48 days. With no breaks. And no cushy trailer. A low budget movie!!
