Singer Justin Timberlake will have to perform 25 hours of community service at a non-profit organization of his choice due to a drunk driving conviction: “I would be honored to do it,” he said. The superstar was captured on June 18 in the Hamptons, a popular location near New York. The local police in Sag Harbor had become suspicious of the speed of the car, a BMW, driven by singer Justin Timberlake. However, the star had refused to take the balloon test and that is why in August, during a very tense hearing, the judge in the United States, Carl Irace, decided to temporarily suspend the defendant's driver's license. A few days ago, the pop star pleaded guilty and received a reduced sentence. However, by order of the court, the singer had to stop in court to admit his mistake and raise awareness: “Even one drink is too much. Don't drink and drive.” » The singer will also have to pay a $500 fine and have his license suspended for 90 days in New York State. The sentence was agreed to by the defense and the Suffolk County District Attorney's Office. Had Timberlake not pleaded guilty, the sentence could have been as high as one year in prison and a $2,500 fine.
