Soap opera actress sentenced to probation in bar assault
A soap opera actress, who has appeared on “One Life to Live” and “Guiding Light,” was sentenced Friday to three years’ probation for flinging a glass in a woman’s face.
Crystal Hunt, 29, pleaded no contest to a felony assault charge stemming from the Dec. 13 incident at a West Hollywood bar, according to the Los Angeles County district attorney’s office.
She was also ordered to perform 45 days of work with the California Department of Transportation.
Hunt threw a pint glass at the woman after an altercation at the bar, causing cuts to her face, prosecutors said.
She pleaded not guilty in February to the charge.
Hunt played Lizzie Spaulding on “Guiding Light” from 2003 to 2005 and Stacey Marasco on “One Life to Live” from 2008 to 2012.
