The guy who followed Slash as Guns N’ Roses’ lead guitarist is THIS close to putting his DUI case in the rear view mirror … after cutting a plea deal.
DJ Ashba — member of GNR from 2009 to 2015 — pled guilty to 1 count of DUI … this according to the State Attorney’s Office in Livingston County, Illinois. In return, prosecutors dropped a separate charge of running a stop sign.
Ashba was sentenced to 24 months of court-supervised probation and 30 hours of community service. He must also submit to alcohol treatment and pay a fine. We’re told he was also ordered to attend meetings where victims of DUI’s tell their stories.
TMZ broke the story … Ashba was busted back in July 2018 in Fairbury, IL after cops say they pulled him over for blowing a stop sign. Cops ultimately said he showed signs of impairment so they arrested him and booked him for suspicion of DUI.
