1970s teen heartthrob David Cassidy has been sentenced by a judge to three months in rehab and five years of probation as a result of a drunk driving case. An open plea was entered Monday to a Los Angeles judge, with Cassidy admitting he was driving under the influence when arrested in January after making an illegal turn. Cassidy has been in rehab and will remain there longer than his sentence requires. Cassidy’s lawyer claims he is committed to his sobriety and is wanting to break the cycle that has gotten him arrested for drunken driving twice in less than six months’ time. A DUI case in New York was reduced from a felony to a misdemeanor earlier this month. Cassidy is most known for his role on “The Partridge Family.”
