MURRIETA, Calif. — Actor Andy Dick has plead guilty to misdemeanor drug and battery charges. Dick was ordered to serve three years of probation and wear an alcohol monitor for the next year, court records show. He avoided felony charges stemming from his arrest in mid-July after prosecutors determined Dick did not commit felony sexual battery after a teenage girl accused him of pulling her top down.

The "NewsRadio" actor did not appear in a Riverside County courtroom on Friday to answer to the charges, but his attorney stood in for him.

He was arrested after officers responded to a call about an intoxicated male outside a restaurant in Murrieta, a city about 80 miles east of Los Angeles.

The man had potential but no restraint. What a waste.

Good.
Now will someone PLEASE lock this self-important, aging juvenile away for a few years so the country can recover?

What ever happened to news stories giving you all the facts?

What kind of drugs did he have on him, and how much?

Maybe if he had stuck to weed and left the booze alone he would not be in this mess.

Our nation is in denial that pot is a safer alternative than alcohol.

I can't believe that he has survived this long.

He should go to jail. Not even showing up!
He might get sober if he is allowed to really hit bottom and jail might do it.

Misdemeanor charge doesn't require you to show up. Learn.

Like most people have either the time or desire to learn the intricacies of the Calfornia Penal Code, unless they've been in the system. Want to share with us El? You seem to be a expert, vato!

Too bad. Such wasted talent. When he's "on" and sober... or maybe when he's just high enough... he is hilarious. The video he released on 04 playing bush's speech writer/strategist was amazing. His work on News Radio was also great. He lives his life like a Sasha Baron Cohen character, though, and doesn't have any boundaries whatsoever.

Andy Dick is one of the most overrated, untalented people in Hollywood, and that's saying something.

Still more famous than you.

He is a disgrace of a human being. Shameless, talentless, obnoxious, grotesque, sickening. I despise his stupid looking face even more than Bush's.
