Big Pussy in trouble!

[Bluebear]

NEW YORK (AP) — Vincent Pastore, who played gangster “Big Pussy” on HBO’s “The Sopranos,” is considering a plea deal offer over an alleged assault on his former girlfriend.

Pastore was offered the deal, which includes five days of community service, when he appeared in Manhattan Criminal Court Thursday. The plea deal would also require him to attend a batterers’ program.

The 58-year-old actor is free without bail. He has pleaded not guilty to four misdemeanors — two counts of assault and one count each of attempted assault and harassment from an alleged attack on Lisa Regina, 44, in Little Italy last month.

As he left court, Pastore was asked why he hadn’t accepted the deal. He replied: “Because I didn’t do anything.”

1. That's what they always say.

Common criminals w/ star power have a pretty good record in court these days, thanks to the idiocy of the average Amerikkkan juror. :)

2. Hey I just bought the cigar when he was the celebrity endorser.

It's "Players Club". It's pretty good but it's gone downhill in the past year.

3. Big Pussy is...well...a big pussy.

Beating women does not get you any macho points. He's a tool.

5. I love Al Swearingen, I think.

He's so awful and so mean, but damn is he exciting!
