Archuleta's Dad Cited for Patronizing Prostitute
Jeff Archuleta, father of "American Idol" runner-up David Archuleta, has settled a citation he received for patronizing a prostitute.
According to KSL TV in Utah, Archuleta, 41, pleaded no contest to patronizing a prostitute during a January 14 sting at a massage parlor in Utah. The crime is a class B misdemeanor. Jeff reportedly entered a "plea in abeyance," which means the solicitation charges will be dismissed if he doesn't further violate the law.
The senior Archuleta was ordered by the court to attend a class called "Thinking Errors" and pay a fine of $582. He complied with both orders.
The "Idol" star's father is due back in court on June 30.

Just to bad that David’s name has to be dragged into this alleged misdemeanor of his father. I don’t think this fair reporting..just because the dad did the so called misdemeanor would automatically reflect on the son. This is just plain SENSATIONALISM for the media people..
TO DAVID: THIS TOO SHALL PASS! YOUR FANS WILL ALWAYS STAND BY YOU. BE STRONG! WE LOVE YOU!
