Gilbert Arenas Pleads Guilty To Felony Weapons Charge
In a press release that I just read from the US Attorney for the District of Columbia, 28 year old, Washington Wizards guard, Gilbert Arenas pleads guilty to felony charge of carrying a pistol without a license. According to the press release Arenas will be sentenced on March 6, 2010:
He will face up to five years of imprisonment. Pursuant to the plea agreement between Arenas and the government, the government agreed that it will limit its allocution at the low-end of the applicable guidelines, which is estimated to be between 6 and 24 months, with probation, a split-sentence, or incarceration permissible.
The press release goes on but basically Gilbert is looking at prison time for bringing firearms into the Verizon center, displaying them to a teammate and then mutual threats being exchanged between Arenas and a fellow teammate.
What can I say? I liked Gilbert. This stupidity is beneath him, in fact, its so sub-zero…. Leave your comments.
