1/21/08
Actor Kiefer Sutherland has been released from jail.
The 24 star - who served a 48-day sentence for drink-driving at the
private Glendale City Jail - left the facility at 12:05am on Monday
(21Jan08) morning.
Sutherland left the prison in the shirt and jeans he arrived in when he
began the sentence on 5 December (07), and carrying the personal
belongings he brought with him.
John Balian, the jail spokesperson, says, "(Kiefer) looked like he
was glad to be out."
The actor was visited only by his attorney while in jail, and is
reported to have had little contact with the other inmates.
In addition to the jail term, Sutherland was sentenced to five years
probation and was ordered by a judge to complete an 18-month alcohol
education program and six months of therapy.
