Happy 4th of July weekend, James Cromwell; enjoy your jail stay.
Actor James Cromwell — whose credits include “American Horror Story: Asylum” and “Babe,” for which he was nominated for an Oscar — has been sentenced to a week in jail for refusing to pay fines stemming from the protest of a natural-gas power plant in Wawayanda, New York.
Two other protesters also received a week in jail, the Times Herald-Record reports.
Cronwell and five other protesters were arrested in December 2015 and charged with obstruction of traffic after staging a sit-in at the site of the plant, which is scheduled to go online February 2018.
