Los Angeles - Keith Carradine's ex-wife has been sentenced to community service for trying to cover up illegal wiretapping by former Hollywood private eye Anthony Pellicano.
Sandra Carradine was sentenced on Monday in a federal court in Los Angeles to 400 hours of community service, two years of probation and a $10 000 fine.
The actor's ex-wife pleaded guilty to perjury four years ago.
She said she paid Pellicano $25 000 in 2001 to keep tabs on her ex-husband during a child custody dispute. She acknowledged that she lied to a federal grand jury in 2004 to conceal Pellicano's wiretapping of her ex's phone calls.
Pellicano is serving a 15-year federal sentence for wiretapping, conspiracy and other crimes.
