2006 Tow Truck Incident
In September 2006 Wahler was driving with a group of friends when their path was blocked by a tow truck moving an illegally parked vehicle. Rather than waiting for the tow truck to complete its work, Wahler is said to have gotten out of his car, punched one of the tow truck drivers and assaulted a Department of Transportation traffic officer that was on the scene. He later pleaded no contest to one count of battery in connection to the incident and was sentenced to two months in jail. The judge, however, suspended Wahler's sentence so that he could attend a rehabilitation program before serving his sentence in June 2007.Huffington Post: Lawsuit Claims Jason...
