24 Feb
Summary
- Zachery Ty Bryan sentenced to 16 months for DUI.
- Bryan had a BAC of 0.15%, nearly double the legal limit.
- Past DUI convictions complicated his recent sentencing.

Zachery Ty Bryan, known for his role on Home Improvement, received a 16-month jail sentence on Monday for a 2024 DUI arrest. The actor, who played Brad Taylor on the ABC sitcom, admitted to driving with a blood alcohol content of 0.15 percent, nearly twice the legal limit. This offense was further compounded by two previous DUI convictions.
At a rearraignment, Bryan's pact with the prosecution led to his guilty plea. The presiding judge opted against probation, sentencing him to one year and four months in county jail, with credit for 57 days already served. Warrants from outside the county related to the offense are also pending.
Bryan has spoken about the challenges of transitioning from child stardom to adulthood, citing fame, addiction, and poor decision-making as contributing factors to his legal issues. He expressed deep regret for his actions and is reportedly seeking personal growth through therapy and rehabilitation programs.
