Justin Bieber meets with probation officer

Justin Bieber began his punishment for his vandalism conviction by meeting with his probation officer on Friday (25Jul14).

The troubled pop star pleaded no contest to the charge stemming from an incident last year (13) when he pelted a neighbor's house with eggs and he was sentenced to five days of community service, 12 weeks of anger management counseling, and two years of probation.

Bieber, 20, accepted the sentence earlier this month (Jul14), and he began his punishment on Friday.

The Baby star visited the Santa Monica Courthouse in California for an hour-long meeting with his probation officer, who set out the rules and urged him to stay out of trouble and complete his community service and counseling classes on time, according to TMZ.com.
