Yesterday Mike Tyson pleaded guilty to charges of drug possession and driving under the influence stemming from a traffic stop last year as he was leaving a nightclub. Tyson quietly acknowledged to a judge that he had cocaine and was impaired when he was stopped for driving erratically after leaving the Pussycat Lounge in Scottsdale on Dec. 29. He pleaded guilty to one felony count of cocaine possession and a misdemeanor DUI count and faces up to four years and three months in prison when sentenced Nov. 19. A felony charge of possession of drug paraphernalia and a second misdemeanor DUI charge were dropped. Tyson's lawyer, David Chesnoff, said his client has been clean and sober for eight months. "It's obvious this was a crime he was committing against himself," Chesnoff said.
