Kiefer Cooks & Cleans In Jail...
Kiefer Sutherland is receiving no special treatment as he serves a
48-day jail sentence for drink-driving - he's spending his days cooking
for inmates and washing dirty sheets. The 24 actor checked into
California's Glendale City Jail earlier this month and will spend his
upcoming birthday, Christmas and New Year behind bars.
Kiefer, who turns 41 on Friday the 21st, has been put to work in the
laundry and kitchen, serving up food and cleaning the soiled sheets
of homeless people. Jail spokesman Sergeant Tom Lorenz says, "We pick
up street people, who then sleep on bunks in our jail. Kiefer Sutherland
has to wash their bedding. "He needs to wear rubber gloves for the job,
it's not a pretty sight. Because it's such a messy job, Sutherland is
allowed to shower twice a day. "Then he prepares and serves meals to the
prisoners." Sutherland was handed the sentence for drink-driving and
violating probation in September. He is due for release in January
