Prison Break Actor Sentenced to 40 Months In Jail

Lane Garrison was sentenced to three years and four months in state prison Wednesday after pleading guilty to vehicular manslaughter without gross negligence and two other alcohol-related charges.

"[Lane] thinks he is the lucky one â€" he survived the accident," Garrison's lawyer, Harland Braun, tells Us. "He is philosophical about the whole thing. We asked the judge to consider letting him serve his time in fire camp so he can fight fires. At least that is out in the open."

I don't get it, Lane killed a teenager, now he thinks he's a firefighter? I'm lost.

In December 2006, Garrison, 27, crashed his Land Rover SUV into a tree in Beverly Hills, killing a male teen passenger and injuring two teen girls also inside the car.

At the August hearing, Garrison told the judge: "I'm reminded of that night every day and I think about the bad decision I made. I am so sorry."

Along with his manslaughter plea, Garrison â€" who had a registered a blood alcohol level of over .15 the night of the crash â€" admitted he gave alcohol to minors.
