‘American Idol’s Caleb Kennedy was sentenced to eight years in prison for his fatal DUI crash in 2022, according to multiple reports. Caleb, who was 17 at the time, was using a marijuana vape pen while driving on a private road, when he struck and killed a South Carolina resident. Caleb competed in season 19 of the music competition series, making it to the top five before he dropped out in the wake of a different controversy: a Snapchat video reportedly showed Caleb with a friend who was wearing a hood that resembled those worn by the Ku Klux Klan.
