"Sopranos" Bodyguard Ducks Jail

Looks like Tony Soprano's enforcer has no problem singing to prosecutors.

Louis Gross, the 23-year-old actor who played the mob boss' beefy bodyguard Perry Annunziata last season on The Sopranos, will not face jail time for a criminal mischief charge stemming from an April break-in incident.

The small-screen tough was arrested last spring after a woman claimed he broke into her house, smashing a door to allegedly collect some of his belongings there. She called the cops and he was arrested and eventually charged with criminal mischief. At the time, he told reporters, "I don't know nothing. I'm innocent. I'm always innocent."

It appears he was right...sort of. According to the actor's lawyer, Samuel Bernstein, a deal was brokered in a Queens court, and his client will stay out of jail if he keeps his nose clean and avoids arrest for the next six months.

Berstein also claims the whole incident was a "misunderstanding" and that his client was staying at the apartment and accidentally broke the door frame in an effort to get some of his things.

"He didn't steal anything," Bernstein told the Associated Press. "He just got his own stuff, and he's offered to pay for the door."

It remains to be seen if keeping out of trouble is a possibility for Gross, who made his biggest mark last season by getting the snot beat out of him in a chest-thumping move by Tony, who was recovering from a gunshot wound and wanted to show his henchmen that he's still "got it."

In February, the actor set of the alarms in the trendy Michael K. clothing boutique in New York's Soho neighborhood. He was carrying an unpaid-for bag of goodies and was picked up by the cops on robbery charges.

As for The Sopranos, shooting for the last season of the Emmy-winning mob drama begins in two weeks.
