Former Jackass star Bam Margera pled guilty to disorderly conduct charges related to an altercation at his Philadelphia home, just before his trial was set to begin. The 44-year-old will serve six months probation and undergo random drug testing. The charges stemmed from incidents involving assault and threats towards family members during a two-week visit last year. Margera, who admitted to struggling with drug and alcohol issues, has since turned his life around and is now clean and sober. His brother described him as a good person when sober but noted a history of destructive behavior. Margera expressed remorse for his past actions and emphasized his commitment to maintaining sobriety. This development comes as Margera approaches one year of sobriety on August 1, marking a significant milestone in his personal journey towards recovery.
