The 'Cry Me A River' Hitmaker Priortized His Family DWI Plea Deal
The actor broke the internet for a DWI arrest at Sag Harbor, New York, back in June. However, his decision to plead guilty and accept a lesser charge was influenced by his wife.
The Blast reported that the entertainer was ready to put the drama in the past and focus on his family. In the words of an inside source:
"He's a family man, and this is his focus. He accepted a plea deal because he wants to move on. The court case has been a distraction. He doesn't want his family to be affected by it."
The source continued that his wife was not pleased with the turn of events and how viral it had gone, so she encouraged him to accept the deal.
Details Of Justin Timberlake's Plea Deal
The crux of the deal was that the singer would not be charged for driving under the influence. Instead, the prosecutors agreed to dismiss the charges and punish him for "Driving While Ability Impaired."
The new charge implied that the actor was charged with a traffic violation and not drunk driving. He was expected to pay between $300 to $500 as a fine for the charges.
His license was also suspended for a year after he refused to take the breathalyzer test during the June arrest.
