Days of our Lives star Freddie Smith is free on bond after pleading guilty to charges stemming from a DUI-related car crash.
Days of our Lives star Freddie Smith (Sonny Kiriakis) pleaded guilty yesterday in Ashtabula Ohio County Common Pleas Court to charges stemming from an October 7 car accident that critically injured his girlfriend, Alyssa Tabit.
The 26-year-old DAYS actor pleaded guilty to vehicular assault, a fourth-degree felony, and operating a vehicle while intoxicated, a first-degree misdemeanor. He could face up to 24 months in jail and possible suspension of his driver's license.
As previously reported by Soap Central, Smith's 2009 Mazda 6 was traveling westbound on State Route 84. He failed to safely negotiate a left curve and lost control. According to a police report, the car "crossed the centerline, traveled the left side of the road and struck a culvert [which] caused the car to overturn end over end." Tabit was temporarily trapped inside.
Smith's blood alcohol level was .093, higher than the .08 legal limit in Ohio.
