Kiefer Sutherland is a Free Man

As of 12:05am this morning, actor Kiefer Sutherland has been released from jail, after serving 48 days for his second DUI conviction.

Originally, the “Lost Boys” star was scheduled to divide his sentence into two segments, serving half his sentence now, and half after his show, 24, goes on hiatus this summer.  But with the writers’ strike ongoing, he decided to do it all in one shot.

And it sounds like Sutherland was a perfect gentleman while he was behind bars.  A prison spokesman told press, “Throughout his stay, he never griped, never complained.  He never wanted preferential treatment from the get go, and we respect him for that.”

Upon his release, “[Kiefer] looked like he was glad to be out,” said a source.  He’ll be on five years probation, 18 months of alcohol education, and six months of weekly therapy sessions.
