Good Grief. Charlie Brown Voice Actor Sentenced To Jail

The former child actor was sentenced for making criminal threats.

Peter Robbins, 59, pleaded guilty last month to sending threatening letters. He also allegedly sent letters to the media in which he was willing to pay to have San Diego Sheriff Bill Gore killed.

According to a story at Foxnews.com

Prosecutors said he also threatened a San Diego judge, but that charge was not part of a plea agreement.

Robbins, who made numerous outbursts in earlier hearings, was relatively subdued at his sentencing, according to The San Diego Union-Tribune. His attorney, Joey Super, made a request on his client's behalf to withdraw his plea.

William Chidsey Jr., a retired Los Angeles Superior Court judge who was brought in to handle the case after San Diego judges recused themselves, sentenced the former actor to four years and eight months in prison.

Peter Robbins is THE voice of Charlie Brown for my generation. He voiced Charlie Brown in  'A Charlie Brown Christmas" and "It's The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown" among others.
