Lane Garrison life and biography

Lane Garrison is an American actor best known for the role of David "Tweener" Apolskis on the television series Prison Break.

Garrison was born in Dallas, Texas and raised in Richardson, Texas. Due to the troubled relationship with his mother, Garrison moved out at seventeen and turned to the family minister, Joe Simpson, who is also the manager and father of pop stars Jessica and Ashlee Simpson. Garrison lived with the Simpson family for a year. He graduated from J.J. Pearce High School in 1998 and at eighteen, he drove to Los Angeles with ambitions to become an actor. During his first day in L.A. he ran into a commercial agent, who sent him to an audition for Eastpak Backpacks. He got it, and that paid him $3,500, money he needed to live and study with several acting teachers, some of which were Joseph Riteman, Belita Moreno and Warner Laughlin. His major break was in 2005, the role as David 'Tweener' Apolskis, on the television series Prison Break.

The drink driving charges that where brought up against Lane was very serious because he had killed a young child in the accident. The judge called it Vehicular Manslaughter which means that somebody was killed by a person that was not in control of their vehicle which has been out of control for one reason or another. It was the year 2007 when Lane Garrison pleaded guilty to Vehicular Manslaughter and the drunk driving charges that where laid against him for the incident in 2006. The child involved was a 17 year old Beverly Hills High School student who was a passenger in his vehicle plus he had two younger girls in the back who were also injured in the accident. Lucky for lane he was not injured in any way during the crash however this did not play to the advantage of the jury.

The police also found traces of cocaine in Lane's system who had told the officer that the party had run out of alcohol so they were driving to get some more. All the children in the car where under the legal drinking age while Lane himself was driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol. Lane was sentenced to 40 months in a state prison where he had already served two months for his conviction so now we are most likely to see lane come out of incarceration in the year 2010 if he is a good boy and gets let out early for parole.
