don vito Vincent Margera Sentenced to Probation

Vincent Margera, Bam Margera’s uncle, has been sentenced to what could be a life of probation, after a conviction on child sex assault charges. He must register as a sex offender and was told by the judge he can not play his Don Vito character for ten years.

The man formerly known as Don Vito must also receive a mental health evaluation and undergo drug and alcohol treatment. The 51-year-old Margera was convicted on two counts of sexual assault on a child, after he groped three girls, ages 12 to 14 at an autograph signing in a Colorado skate park.

He played the character of Don Vito on MTV’s "Viva La Bam."

Vincent has said in his defense he was only playing his character Don Vito when he groped the girls, which is why the judge said no more Don Vito. Vincent faced life in prison, but he got probation. He’s the luckiest man on the planet.
