Uncle Kracker Pleads Guilty

Uncle Kracker pleaded guilty today in a North Carolina court to misdemeanor charges he assaulted a woman in a downtown nightclub after a concert. Apparently the woman slapped him and he slapped her back. The woman later reported the incident to an off-duty police officer, reports Yahoo!

The judge sentenced Kracker, whose real name is Matthew Shafer, to 12 months probation and fined him $1,500. Kracker must also undergo an assessment to determine if he's addicted to alcohol.

You might remember Kracker from his song 'Follow Me.'
