Levi's Mom Pleads, Will Likely Get 3 Years

Takes a plea deal in exchange for shorter sentence

Share

(Newser) – Sherry Johnston, the woman the world has to thank for the existence of Levi Johnston, is headed off to the pokey after taking a plea deal yesterday in her OxyContin-dealing case that will likely land her behind bars for three years, the Anchorage Daily News reports. Johnston pleaded guilty to one count in exchange for five others being dropped. She'll await her November sentencing at a correctional center, but her lawyers hope she'll be allowed to serve her sentence on house arrest.

That's pretty. - Sherry Johnston, on the pink handcuffs deputies cuffed her with after her guilty plea

Doc, I have a serious question for you. This Bimbo get's 3 years for Oxy, why is it Rush the junkie didn't even get charges when he had thousands as well as scripts for even more? What is it Republicans always preach about Truth Justice and the American way? Don't get me wrong, I really could care less they lock her up, she screwed up so so rock and roll but hey, lets be fair about it all
