Actor Michael Douglas’ son Cameron Douglas, who had pled guilty to all charges, was sentenced to five years in prison for conspiring to sell crystal meth and heroin possession after he was arrested last summer during a federal investigation (mugshot photo here), which also involved his girlfriend, Kelly Sott (photos here).

Cameron thanked the judge for the chance to get clean and was glad to be sober for the first time in his life. “I’d like to apologize to my family and loved ones for putting them through this nightmare of my making,” Cameron said, adding, “I believe, your honor, things will be different this time.”

The 31 year-old should have faced a minimum of 10 years in jail but more than a dozen letters on his behalf, including one from his father, Michael, and one from his mother, Diandra Luker, made the judge reconsider his punishment. Cameron will face 5 years behind bars, other 5 years of supervised release, pay $25,000 in fines and must serve 450 hours of community service..

Michael Douglas, who is currently married to actress Catherine Zeta-Jones, wrote a very emotional letter to the judge. “For the past eight months, I have cherished my two hr. a week in person conversation with Cameron at the MCC [Metropolitan Correctional Center]. He’s sober!” Douglas wrote. “I get to witness the wonderful young man he can be. He maintains his spirit, blames no one but himself, and recognizes his criminal activity began with his heroin use.”
