Reality TV star Nicole Richie has been sentenced to four days in jail after pleading guilty to driving under the influence. The 25-year-old was sentenced on Friday morning in Los Angeles Superior Court, where she was supported by her boyfriend, Good Charlotte rocker Joel Madden. Richie was arrested on December 11 when she found driving her Mercedez Benz the wrong way down California State Route 134 highway in Burbank, California. After failing an on-field sobriety test, Richie admitted to having smoked marijuana and taking a vicodin painkiller. In court on Friday, Richie was fined $2,048 and ordered to complete a 21-day alcohol education course. She has also been placed on three years probation. The judge said it was up to California's Department of Motor Vehicles if they wanted to suspend her driving license. Richie must serve her time in either the City or County Jail before September 28. The Superior Court Commissioner Steven K. Lubell warned Richie she had put lives at risk during the incident and if she drove under the influence again and killed someone, she could be charged with murder - not manslaughter. Lubell said, "You are not to drive with any measurable amount of alcohol or drugs in your system. You are not to drive without a driver's license." Richie was previously convicted of driving under the influence in 2003. In recent weeks, Richie has been rumored to be pregnant with Madden's baby, although neither have confirmed or denied the report.
