I don't feel sorry for her at all. Wipe those fake tears. C'mon this is a grown woman taking drugs. What's her excuse "I didn't know drugs are bad for you", Please. Lady, just face the consequences, pay your dues and move on with your life. Stop acting like a little girl.

^ I sorta agree with that, but that's from our American POV... It's different over there, so I'm willing to give her the benefit of the doubt.

Her husband on the other hand......

Having a child isn't part of the equation... She shouldn't have been using the drugs to begin with.

Neither is quantity... She had the drugs, period.

Actually, 18 months is pretty lenient, I think.

Yea I was surprized too. I thought they would give her several years probation or something. It'll be interesting to see what her husband gets.

Read the fine print guys, it's suspended for 3 years:

TOKYO (AP) -- Japanese actress Noriko Sakai, once hugely popular in Asia, was convicted of drug use Monday as thousands of people crowded outside the courthouse in anticipation of the verdict.

The Tokyo District Court sentenced 38-year-old Sakai to 18 months in prison, suspended for three years, for using and possessing drugs, court spokesman Yoshikazu Ishizawa said. He declined to give further details.

Sakai was arrested in August after turning herself in following a weeklong disappearance. She disappeared a day after her husband, Yuichi Takaso, 41, was arrested for drug possession and use. The court is set to hand down a verdict on Takaso later this month.

The couple were accused of using amphetamines. The violation carries a penalty of up to 10 years in prison, though most first violations bring suspended sentences.

So what it boils down to is, she got 3 years probation.

I don't think she got special treatment, last line of article:

I thought it said "18 months in prison" too. Or is the article written in a confusing matter?
