What did Robert Downey JR go to jail for

Robert Downey Jr. was sentenced to three years in prison for drug possession, due to a plea bargain he made with the judge and prosecutor. He had been arrested at LAX airport after authorities found cocaine on his person during a random search by security agents of passengers boarding an airplane. The court ordered him into rehab and not jail time if he agreed to plead guilty to felony charges that would have put him behind bars for up-to-three years. So RDJ went back home from Hollywood’s biggest night with just one Oscar nomination instead of two, because it turns out even Iron Man breaks the law sometimes!
