Steve-O gets sentenced to 30 days in jail for SeaWorld protest, doesn't mind at all

Jackass star, Steve-O, has been sentenced to 30 days in jail stemming from the dangerous stunt he pulled in California in August to protest SeaWorld.

As we previously reported, Steve-O was arrested for climbing a crane in Hollywood on Aug. 9.

The LA City Attorney’s office told NBC Los Angeles in addition to jail time, Steve-O will have to pay $14,000 to fire and police departments for having to report to the scene. He plead no contest to the charges on Wednesday.

He will also have to stay at least 100 yards away from the Hollywood Entertainment District, go on probation and cannot possess fireworks.

"Considering I've become a clean and sober, dog-rescuing vegan, I must say I'm ready to go to jail-- not just because it will bring so much attention to the plight of orcas in captivity, but because it's nice to let people know I haven't lost my edge,” he wrote on Instagram after the sentencing. “What can I say, I'm a jackass."

I just got sentenced to 30 days in LA County jail, and this is what I have to say about it: "Considering I've become a clean and sober, dog-rescuing vegan, I must say I'm ready to go to jail-- not just because it will bring so much attention to the plight of orcas in captivity, but because it's nice to let people know I haven't lost my edge. What can I say, I'm a jackass. My whole crane-climbing, fireworks debacle really turned out to be pretty meaningful in the end, too. I mean, if your goal is to make a statement about captivity, you may as well get yourself locked up! To help give back to the City of Los Angeles, I launched a campaign today to raise money for at-risk, inner city youth, by raffling off chances to win an all-expenses-paid trip to be my red carpet, VIP guest at the taping of my Showtime comedy special next month, which is called "Steve-O: Guilty As Charged". There is a link to a new crazy stunt video I just made to let people enter to win in my bio. Los Angeles, I love you, thank you for everything!" -Steve-O (cartoon by @mikehillier_design)
