Poundstone Makes Plea, Avoids Prison

Comedian Paula Poundstone has been relieved of three counts of "lewdness" charges against her and has pled no contest to child endangerment, according to this report on Excite News. She's been slapped with five years probation (she could have received 13 years and four months in prison). She will also not be allowed to care for any more foster children, and the two foster children previously under her care will not be returned to her. She may regain custody of her adoptive children, however.
