Jarvis Crittenton Charged Gun Possession; Pleads Guilty
Washington Wizards player Javaris Crittenton, who was involved in the locker room gun standoff with Gilbert Arenas, has been slapped with one misdemeanor count of unlawful possession of a firearm, and one misdemeanor count of attempt to carry a gun without a license.
Just hours after being getting charged Javaris Crittenton struck a plea deal with prosecutors and pled guilty to one misdemeanor in exchange for dropping the other.
Javaris was sentenced to one year of unsupervised probation and received a $1,000 fine, according TMZ.
No word on if he will be suspended from the NBA like Gilbert but the Wizards released this statement:
“The charges filed today against Javaris Crittenton and his subsequent plea represent another disappointing development in what has already been a long and frustrating process for the team, the NBA and, most importantly, our fans. Javaris clearly used very bad judgment in this situation and will now face the consequences of his actions.”
Gilbert pled guilty earlier this month and is due to be sentenced in March.
