Celebrity Justice
"Idol" Reject Corey Clark -- Headed to Slammer?

Posted Oct 11th 2007 1:18PM by TMZ Staff

"American Idol" wannabeen Corey Clark is best remembered for an alleged dalliance with Paula Abdul. Now his hits just keep coming -- legal hits, that is.

TMZ has learned that Clark could be spending a year in the pokey, after he plead guilty last week to trespassing on his father-in-law's property, and in the process, violated a restraining order taken out by his estranged wife (yes, he's married!).




In the plea agreement obtained by TMZ, Clark admits to a charge of "aggravated harassment, involving domestic violence," and his punishment could include up to a year in jail, probation and a $150,000 fine.

Of course, it doesn't end there for Clark. He's also facing drug possession charges in Arkansas, after he was nabbed by cops while sitting in a parked car in North Little Rock. After that arrest, he was shipped back to Arizona to face the harassment charges.

One very small piece of good news for Clark: One Arizona charge of contempt of court -- for not showing up for a hearing -- was dismissed! Clark's lawyer was in court this morning, and couldn't be reached for comment.

3. What's up these days with the youth's disrespect and disregard for court issued rulings?
The court has final say; more power than even the police. Young people take heed.

15. Ew! Well there goes my lunch. I sort of wish TMZ had mentioned that allegations against Paula were thoroughly investigated and proven false but AI doesn't take any chances, now the judges are extremely careful never to be in a position where they can be accused. This filthy punk just made that accusation to keep himself in the spotlight, as if!! Btw people who violate restraining orders should be thrown in jail more often, we might hear of fewer murders.
