Tracy Morgan Ordered to SCRAM, Escapes Jail Time


Tracy Morgan has cop a deal that will keep him out of jail, BUT he will have to wear a new accessory around the ankle.


According to TMZ.com, The "30 Rock" star was order to wear a SCRAM (Secure Continuous Remote Alcohol Monitoring) device -- an ankle bracelet worn to test for alcohol vapors that come out of the skin. The tests will go on every 30 minutes for 90 days. If Morgan tests positive for alcohol use he will have to start his 90 days over, and if he fails a second time he'll be forced to spend 30 days in a county jail.


In addition, he will have to complete five days of community service.


NYPD officers busted Morgan after he was spotted driving erratically in November. The bust violated the probation of a previous DUI conviction in Los Angeles.


Hopefully, this time around he can stay out of trouble.
