Sheldon Richardson avoids jail time pleads guilty

ST. CHARLES, Mo. -- defensive lineman avoided jail time Tuesday after pleading guilty to reduced charges connected to a high- Luka Doncic Jersey speed police chase in suburban St. Louis. A St. Charles County judge sentenced the former University of Mi souri star to two years of probation and 100 hours of community service after his July arrest for driving a 2014 Bentley Silver Spur at speeds up to 143 mph on an interstate highway near his offseason home. The five misdemeanor charges included one for resisting arrest, for which Richardson could have spent up to one year in jail. Richardson's guilty plea to the most serious offense will be wiped from his record if he succe sfully completes probation. He also pleaded guilty to speeding and running a red light and must pay $1,050 in fines. Two Maxi Kleber Jersey other traffic offenses were reduced to muffler violations to which the 25-year-old St. Louis native also pleaded guilty. Leslie Knight, a spokeswoman for county prosecutor Tim Lohmar, called the plea bargain a "typical" offer that wasn Michael Kidd-Gilchrist Jersey 't influenced by Richardson's status. "That's what we would do for anybody," she said after the brief hearing. Richardson was accompanied by a 12-year-old relative and two male pa sengers when he was stopped. Police say they found a loaded semi-automatic handgun under a floor mat and detected a strong marijuana odor. Richardson's car went through a traffic light before the player turned off all of its Jalen Brunson Jersey lights and pulled into someone else's driveway. Police pulled behind the car and ordered Richardson and the adult pa sengers out of the car at gunpoint - an officer said he saw Richardson reach for something between his feet. He was not charged for the gun po se sion or marijuana, nor were his pa sengers charged. He declined comment after the sentencing hearing. Richardson served a four-game, early season suspension for violating the NFL's substance abuse policy. Defense attorney Scott Rosenblum said he doesn't expect Richardson to face more discipline related to the Mi souri case under the league's personal conduct policy. Three previous hearings were postponed until after the 2015 NFL regular season. Rosenblum said his client was remorseful and has since sold the luxury car, preferring instead to drive a Delon Wright Jersey Chevy Tahoe SUV. "He absolutely understands that his behavior was not responsible," he said.Copyright 2016 by The A sociated Pre s
