Judge to Bam's Uncle: You're Don Vito No More

Bam's uncle Don Vito got the book thrown at him!

Vincent "Don Vito" Margera 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. Say it ain't so!

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."

48. Sounds like a "he said, she said" kinda thing.
I wonder if this incedent was caught on video or picture, since it was a autograph signing.
I have a 12 year old girl. They do tend to lie a bit.

50. Yeah Lady, for once I would believe a crapbag like that would be on your Spyware site! Wow, your loads of bullcrap are always so convincing- convincing if you're an idiot like Vito is! Please rot in a painful hell of your own making!

51. This sentence seems a bit ridiculous and harsh. He can't play Don Vito for 10 years? What does this have to do with his crime? He's not a pornographer or anything. Way to deny the man of his livelihood, make him desperate and stupid enough to try something foolish or criminal. This is what I don't like about the legal system.

52. What parent in their right mind would have their daughter go near Don Vito after seeing his antics on TV ? Don Vito deserves to be punished, however the parents of these young girls should be held accountable for their judgement. As parents they should be overseeing what their children watch on TV, I am a parent of 3 teenagers, and attempt to monitor what is seen in my home. As such I have seen what Don Vito is like on his REALITY TV SHOW.

THIS WAS AT CPI'S IN THE HAMPTONS PROBABLY LIKE 2SUMMERS AGO, I'M SURE EVERY GIRL THAT WAS THERE EXPERIANCED THE SAME THING, SHOOT EV ERY GIRL THAT EVER MET HIM PERIOD.

55. This is bull. Yes I think it's wrong Don Vito grabbed an underage girl but with the way girls dress nowadays it's very possible he didn't realize they were underage. I know I have a young teenage cousin who could pass for 18 or 19 and even before this happened I wouldn't have been stupid enough to take her or any other young girl around Vito because anyone who has ever seen Viva La Bam or a CKY dvd knows that if your around him there's a good chance your gonna be felt up. Personally I wouldn't have cared if he grabbed me in fact I would brag to my friends that I got groped by Don Vito (for the record I'm 21 years old).

56. the parents of these kids are obviously money hungry if he was truly in the wrong and did what they say he did he wouldn't have got just probation. I'm sure they'll have a civil suit and it will be for and outrageous amount of money well good luck to that because he has no money. I think the parents should have kept better track of their kids and need to understand the character that he played. Well Vito ooh sorry I mean Vince I forgot you can't be Don Vito no more due to money grubbing parents you take care and keep your head up. Karma will catch up with the money grubbers and when it does they'll be sorry.
