A judge Monday gave the 36-year-old mother a 180-day jail sentence and fined her $2,500, but the judge suspended imposing those penalties on the condition that Beagley avoid committing any other criminal offenses for three years.
In other words, Beagley will not have to serve jail time or pay a fine so long as she keeps her nose clean for three years.
