In 2016, Mark Wahlberg admitted that there was a time in his life when he looked at going to prison as some sort of accomplishment — an end game, if you will, to his life of juvenile crime. Indeed, as Distractify reports, he admitted that once he was locked up, he was with the types of guys that he wanted to be. Unfortunately, prison wasn't the experience he thought it was going to be. "I realized it wasn't what I wanted at all. I'd ended up in the worst place I could possibly imagine, and I never wanted to go back," he said.

As Showbiz Cheat Sheet reported, though he was sentenced to two years, Wahlberg only actually served 45 days behind bars for the crime. And Wahlberg has been largely mum about what happened behind the bars at Deer Island House of Correction. However, he told ABC News in 2007 that he believed his sentence was payment for his crimes. "I did a lot of things that I regretted, and I certainly paid for my mistakes," he said.

Fortunately, Wahlberg turned his life around after prison. He applied for a pardon for the attack that sent him to prison, and attempted to make amends with his victim.
