May 9, 2003 Tommy Lee's Spousal Abuse Case Reduced from Yahoo News: MALIBU, Calif. - The spousal abuse case against Tommy Lee has been reduced to a misdemeanor and the former Motley Crue drummer was released from a probation sentence he'd been serving for the past five years for allegedly assaulting his ex-wife, actress Pamela Anderson. Los Angeles County Superior Court spokesman Kyle Christopherson said Lee's judge also granted a defense motion to dismiss the case Thursday. That means Lee must indicate he was arrested if asked, but can say the case against him was dismissed. The 40-year-old rock star was charged in February 1998 with spousal abuse, child abuse and a firearms violation after Anderson called police from her Malibu home and reported she'd been assaulted during an argument. Lee pleaded no contest to felony corporal injury to a spouse and was sentenced to terms of 180 days in jail and three years in state prison, both of which were suspended. He's been attending regular probation progress report hearings at the Malibu Superior Court since his May 1998 sentencing. Last month, a jury found Lee wasn't to blame for the drowning of a 4-year-old boy during a children's birthday party at his home. The boy's parents sought $10 million in a wrongful death lawsuit.
