Wow! Can't say that I didn't see it coming. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060818/ap_en_mo/people_osment GLENDALE, Calif. - Teen actor Haley Joel Osment, who suffered a broken rib last month when his car struck a mailbox, faces up to six months in jail on charges that he was driving drunk and possessing mar1juana, authorities said. Osment's blood-alcohol level after the July 20 crash was measured at .16 percent, twice the legal limit, said Jane Robison, a spokeswoman for the Los Angeles County district attorney's office. The 18-year-old actor was charged Thursday with misdemeanor counts of driving under the influence, mar1juana possession and driving under the influence with the special allegation of having a blood-alcohol content of .15 percent or higher. He also faces a vehicle code infraction of being under the age of 21 and driving with a blood-alcohol level of .05 percent or greater. Osment was scheduled to be arraigned Sept. 19 in Glendale Superior Court. His attorney will work with authorities to arrange a time for the star of such films as "The Sixth Sense" and "Pay it Forward" to surrender, Robison said. The district attorney plans to request that bail be set at $15,000. DreamWorks spokesman and family friend Marvin Levy said Thursday the family would have "no comment at this time" on the charges. Levy said Wednesday that Osment has recovered from injuries that landed him in the hospital and is preparing to attend college in the fall. The actor recently finished work on the film "Home of the Giants." "He's fine. The injuries were slight, not serious," Levy said. Authorities said Osment was driving home alone about 1 a.m. when his 1995 Saturn hit a mailbox and flipped over.
no kidding. maybe they should do another article on what the hell he's doing driving a 95 saturn. he's got to be pretty well off.
probably will need it now for all the insurance he is going to have to pay. not to mention all the fines and bail
well we need to sign him to an NBA contract or obviously his doctor forgot to mention not to mix his meds with alcohol or i didnt know he played for the blazers or gwen stefani needs to die and madonna too, but in a more horrific manner
Damn, I didn't know he was so old...18...I guess I still see him as a young actor...C'mon who hasn't drank a couple and had some weed in his car...We all do it..
The only reason I started watching "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" was because I thought this guy was Haley Joe Osment all grown up. I guess Osment ain't as old as I thought.
