Former KFAN and ESPN 1500 sports radio personality Jeff Dubay has pleaded guilty after a recent drug-related arrest, according to the Bring Me The News website.

Dubay, 56, pleaded guilty to driving while under the influence of an illicit drug on Monday. In exchange for the guilty plea, Dubay will have a felony-level 3rd-degree drug possession and an additional driving under the influence charge dismissed.

Dubay was sentenced to 90 days in jail, however, 80 of the days were set aside for two years. He was also given credit for time served for the remaining 10 days. Dubay will serve two years on probation.

The guilty plea comes after Dubay told the Star Tribune that the allegations against him are "full of misinformation and horrible assumptions."

According to the criminal complaint, on March 8, Dubay was seen driving a Jeep by a Minnesota State Patrol trooper "approaching an intersection then braking at the last second and making a wide sweeping right turn.

The trooper followed the Jeep and witnessed it make "jerky movements" and "traveling in the middle of the road." Dubay was found inside the Jeep "naked by covered by a blanket." He was also covered in vegetable oil.

The 56-year-old failed multiple field sobriety tests before his vehicle was searched. Police found methamphetamine and two bottles of adhesive remover. He admitted to huffing the two bottles.

Dubay has a long string of previous convictions for drug possession, as well as other convictions for assault, domestic assault, and driving offenses.
