‘Prison Break' actor gets three years for crash
Lane Garrison was sentenced to three years and four months in prison Wednesday for a drunken driving crash that killed a 17-year-old Beverly Hills High student last December.

“The public has the right to know that conduct such as this, causing devastation such as this” will have consequences, said Superior Court Judge Elden S. Fox.

“Unfortunately, in this case, you have to be the messenger,” he told the former “Prison Break” actor.

Garrison, 27 could have received nearly seven years in prison. He had no reaction to the sentencing and was taken away in handcuffs.

Before the sentencing, he apologized to the family of Vahagn Setian.

“I'm sick of my own behavior that night,” he said. “This remorse is genuine. I feel it every day.”

Spears talks about kids, calls world ‘cruel'

Britney Spears defended her parenting and decried her critics, lamenting “how cruel our world can be,” in a brief interview on Ryan Seacrest's radio show Wednesday.

Spears, always photographed but rarely interviewed these days, also spoke about her new album “Blackout” during the seven-minute talk, during which she giggled frequently as her assistant, Alli Sims, and friend, Sam Lufti, laughed and shouted in the background.

When the “American Idol” host, who has a morning radio show on KIIS-FM in Los Angeles, asked Spears whether she was doing all she could for her children, Spears replied, “Oh, God, yeah.”

“People say what they want and do what they do and it's sad how people, how cruel our world can be,” she said. “At the end of the day ... you've just got to know in your heart that you're doing the best you can and that's basically it.”

Spears' ex-husband, Kevin Federline, has primary custody of her two sons, Sean Preston, 2, and Jayden James, 1. A judge on Tuesday granted Spears three monitored visits a week. She must also take parenting classes and submit to random weekly drug and alcohol tests.

Spears was unclear when Seacrest asked how often she would see the boys.

“That's, like, all in the court,” she said. “Stuff like that, my lawyers know all that stuff.”

Mills McCartney says she fears for her life

Heather Mills McCartney accused Paul McCartney of failing to protect her and their 3-year-old daughter Beatrice from abuse, which she says ranges from lies and slander to death threats.

Breaking her recent silence about issues surrounding their divorce case, Mills McCartney gave two television interviews Wednesday. She also announced that she would seek European legislation to compel newspapers to apologize for untruthful stories.

“Do you fear for your life?” she was asked in a British Broadcasting Corp. television interview.

“Yes I do, yes I do,” she said.
