LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- Actor Lane Garrison has been sentenced to 40 months in a California prison for a drunken driving crash that killed a teenage student.
Lane Garrison leaves a courthouse in March. The former "Prison Break" actor received a sentence Wednesday.
Garrison was driving a 2001 Land Rover when he lost control and rammed a tree in December 2006. The crash killed Vahagn Setian, a Beverly Hills High student, and injured two 15-year-old girls in the car.
Garrison had a blood-alcohol content of 0.20 percent, more than twice the legal limit for driving, and was under the influence of cocaine, according to police.
The actor pleaded guilty in May to one count of vehicular manslaughter without gross negligence, one count of driving under the influence with a blood-alcohol level of 0.15 percent or higher and a misdemeanor of providing alcohol to a minor.
At his last court appearance August 2, the actor apologized to the victim's family.
"I have relived that night every day and I think about the bad decisions I made. I can say to you I am so sorry that you lost someone because I love people. That is my first passion," he said.
Garrison is best known for his role in the Fox series "Prison Break." E-mail to a friend
