Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones pleaded guilty Wednesday to a misdemeanor charge of disorderly conduct.
Jones entered the plea in Hamilton County Municipal Court just as his
non-jury trial was scheduled to begin. A second misdemeanor charge of
resisting arrest was dismissed in a plea agreement with prosecutors.
Judge Brad Greenberg ordered Jones to serve a year of probation,
complete 50 hours of community service and pay a $250 fine plus court
costs. Jones could have received a maximum jail sentence of 30 days.
Jones, 28, was accused in court documents of being disorderly, shouting
profanities and trying to pull away as officers arrested him at a
downtown bar in July.
At the time, Jones was on probation in Las Vegas in connection with a
2007 no contest plea to a strip club melee that left three people
wounded. He was ordered in November to perform an additional 75 hours of
community service for violating that probation with the Cincinnati
arrest.
