Predator Director John McTiernan Sentenced to 1 Year Jail Term

The sentencing of director John McTiernan to a year in prison for his role in the Anthony Pellicano wiretapping cast signals the final chapter to a story once hyped as the Hollywood scandal to end all scandals.

Thanks to Variety.

On the surface this appears to be a tremendous blow to fans of action cinema, however to put it in perspective in one year's time McTeirnan will be free to get back to work. Before the sentencing, McTiernan's legal troubles tied him up for years preventing him from making any movies.

Wow, I thought this was over already. The US justice system is slow, isn't it? Don't they have the movie about the wiretapping scandal coming out in a matter of months?
