Actor Lane Garrison was released from prison early Wednesday morning after serving 20 months of a 40-month sentence in connection with a vehicular manslaughter conviction for a 2006 incident that left one teen dead and another one injured, authorities told RadarOnline.com.
The 28-year-old, formerly of the Fox show Prison Break, was met by family and friends at about 3:45AM Wednesday as he left the California Correctional Institute in Tehachapi, California. While in custody, the actor participated in a drug-abuse program and served as a peer mentor to other inmates, according to officials. He received the early release based on "good-behavior credits."
