Ex-Real Radio jock Burke guilty of probation violation
from floridatoday.com:
"ORLANDO -- Radio personality Shannon Burke pleaded guilty today to probation violation charges.
Shannon Burke admitted to violating his probation for DUI in Orange County when he shot at his wife in May, hitting her face and her dog.
Burke's attorney portrayed the former radio host as a changed man. He called a friend of Burke's from Alcoholics Anonymous and Burke's wife, Catherine Burke, as witnesses when asking the judge to let Shannon Burke serve his sentences concurrently.
Shannon Burke is required to report to the Seminole County Jail by Dec. 31 to serve a six-month sentence on a reduced animal cruelty charge stemming from the May shooting at his Altamonte Springs home.
Sentencing for the probation violation charge in Orange County will be held on Jan. 5."
