Weiland sentenced to jail

Scott Weiland has been sentenced to eight days in prison after pleading no contest to a misdemeanour drunken driving charge in relation to his previously reported arrest near a San Fernando Valley freeway on 21 Nov last year. The Stone Temple Pilot, who entered the plea at the LA Superior Court on Monday via his lawyer, has also been given four years of probation and will complete an eighteen month alcohol programme. It's Weiland's second DUI conviction.
