Redmond O'Neal pleads guilty to drug charges

MALIBU, Calif. (AP) -June 26, 2008

The 23-year-old O'Neal pleaded guilty Thursday in a Malibu court to the two felony counts and a misdemeanor count of driving under the influence of drugs. As part of a plea deal, a second DUI charge was dismissed.

He was placed on three years' probation on the misdemeanor charge and fined about $1,700.

The district attorney's office says O'Neal also was ordered to remain in drug treatment until a hearing next month to determine if he can enter a drug-diversion program on the felony charges.

O'Neal was arrested January 26th after he was stopped for speeding on Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu.
