Chad Johnson given jail time

Former NFL star Chad Johnson seems to be spiraling quickly right before our eyes.

Evelyn Lozada’s ex-husband angered his Broward County, Fla. probation judge when, just as his lawyer was about to strike a deal that would have not included any jail time, slapped his lawyer on the butt in the courtroom. The judge took umbrage at the disrespect and reversed gears on the possible deal, ordering Johnson to be arrested and placed in handcuffs inside the courtroom and ordered him to spend 30 days in jail, tmz.com reports.

The smack on Johnson’s laywer’s behind must have enraged the judge enough to take the original deal off the table. What possessed Johnson to do such a thing with his short-term freedom on the line is beyond us.


Now Johnson was given a punishment that is harsher than what was originally proposed. Moreover, the former Mr. Ochocinco’s probation was also extended until December 21, 2013. He is also required to complete an additional 25 hours of community service along with extra therapy sessions.
