Malibu, CA. (THECOUNT) — Actress Heather Locklear just pled no contest to 8 misdemeanors, including 6 involving battery on a police officer or EMT, and she’s getting a sentence that will hopefully help her, a sentence that does not involve jail, TMZ is reporting on Friday.
The judge decided the appropriate sentence was 30 days in a residential mental health facility. The judge stayed a 120 jail sentence. Of course, that means Heather must complete the 30 days of treatment or else she could face the jail sentence.
