A man who voiced the cartoon character Charlie Brown in the 1960s has been sentenced to nearly five years in prison for making criminal threats.
Former child actor Peter Robbins was denied a last-minute attempt to withdraw his guilty plea.
The 59-year-old had admitted to offering $50,000 (£33,375) to have San Diego County Sheriff Bill Gore killed.
He was also accused of sending threatening letters to a manager at a mobile home park in suburban Oceanside, California, where he had been living.
On Monday, a San Diego judge sentenced Robbins to four years and eight months in prison.
Two years ago, he had pleaded guilty to harassing and threatening his ex-girlfriend - as well as the plastic surgeon who had enhanced her breasts.
Robbins was nine when he lent his voice to A Charlie Brown Christmas in 1965, playing the world-weary, yet optimistic title character.
He went on to appear in other animated Peanuts specials, as well as A Boy Named Charlie Brown.
