Naomi Campbell sentenced to six months for attacking paparazzi almost five years ago. Typically, if the defendant does not break the law during the span of the suspended prison term, a judge will dismiss the sentence.

The incident occurred in August 2009 when the British supermodel and her then partner Russian billionaire Vladimir Doronin moored their yacht off the Sicilian island of Lipari to visit the local town.

The paparazzo needed medical treatment following the incident and took three days to recover, the court heard.

Since 2002, the model had faced occasional legal troubles due to her quick temper.

Though Campbell’s attorneys had settled the matter with the photographer and he withdrew the charges, prosecutor Francesco Massara had ordered the trial to go ahead in the public interest due to the intensity of the charges.

In 2007, Campbell admitted to throwing her Blackberry cellphone at her housekeeper.

An Sicilian court has found supermodel Naomi Campbell guilty of assault.

“I take responsibility for the things that I’ve done and I do feel a sense of shame”, she told Oprah Winfrey during a sit-down interview.

It seems Campbell has yet to learn her lesson from her previous offenses!
