Puddle of Mudd's Scantlin Pleads Guilty to Cocaine Possession: Report

Puddle of Mudd frontman Wesley Scantlin has reportedly pled guilty to cocaine possession, after being arrested in January and charged in April.

According to
TMZ, Scantlin struck a deal with prosecutors after being charged with being under the influenced of a controlled substance and driving without a license. Those misdemeanor charges were dropped, and Scantlin's guilty plea will lead to a drug counseling program, but not prison time.

When Scantlin was arrested on Jan. 12, the singer was reportedly found in possession of powder and pills, but only cocaine was named by the LAPD.

Puddle of Mudd achieved modern rock success in 2001 with major label debut "Come Clean," which included the singles "Control" and "Blurry." Scantlin and the rest of the group released "re:(disc)overed," a covers album, in August 2011.
