Alec Baldwin pleads guilty in Manhattan parking spot scuffle, will take anger management

Actor Alec Baldwin was back in court Wednesday in a highly publicized scuffle over a parking spot, pleading guilty to second-degree harassment and agreeing to take anger management classes.

More serious charges, including attempted assault, were dropped.

The incident happened near Baldwin's Greenwich Village home in November.

According to court documents, he admitted to pushing a man he claims stole his parking spot.

But his lawyers had said video evidence would disprove the man's claim that Baldwin also punched him.

The Manhattan District Attorney's Office said that after reviewing the video surveillance and speaking with several witnesses, they were prepared to make the offer of second-degree harassment with a conditional discharge and a short-term anger management program. Baldwin pleaded guilty in accordance with those terms, and the case was adjourned until March 27 for a compliance update.

Baldwin must also pay a $120 surcharge.

Baldwin's attorney stressed that his client pleaded guilty to a violation and not a crime

Baldwin was arrested on November 2 after police were told a driver pulled into a parking space that one of Baldwin's relatives was holding for him, and the two men started quarreling and pushing each other.

The other driver told police Baldwin punched or slapped him. The 49-year-old man was taken to a hospital complaining of jaw pain and redness around his neck.

“Scuffle” = assault and battery.

This is not the first time this jackass has been in trouble. I guess it is just the old tier justice system at work...again.

Exactly ... this guy has an ongoing history of violence, and is a genuine menace to society ... how is he not in prison?

Another exemption for the rich and famous creeps, like Harvey Weinstein?

He, and the vast majority of his bimbo/bimboy H-wood associates should also seriously consider IQ-building classes.

Fifty years or so of these classes should bring them up to middle school level. (Oops, that’s 1900 middle school. For today, it’d bring them up to child care levels.)
