Django Unchained actor Danièle Watts charged with lewd conduct Read more

An actor who accused Los Angeles police of racial profiling when they investigated a report she was having sex with her boyfriend in a parked car has been ordered to apologise to officers as part of a plea deal.

Daniele Watts, who appeared in the Quentin Tarantino revenge western Django Unchained, pleaded no contest on Monday to disturbing the peace with loudness.

Los Angeles city attorney’s spokesman Frank Mateljan said Watts and her boyfriend, who entered the same plea, were sentenced to 40 hours of community service and must write apology letters to three officers and the occupants of a building near where they were briefly detained last year.

Lewd conduct charges against the pair have been dropped.

Lou Shapiro, an attorney for Watts and her boyfriend, said the actress would apologize for her comments to police.
