Patrick Mahomes Sr. has learned his fate on the back of a recent guilty plea and will count himself among the extremely fortunate as he’s set to avoid going to prison.
The 54-year-old, the father of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, found himself in a precarious position where the law is concerned, as he was arrested ahead of the Super Bowl in February.
The incident marked Patrick Sr.’s third DWI arrest and left him staring at a potential 10-year prison spell. However, he will not spend any time in jail as long as he adheres to certain conditions.
The former Major League Baseball pitcher submitted a guilty plea on Tuesday, before the case went to trial. According to KLTV, he has agreed to five years of probation with “intense supervision” to be carried out during the first year of the sentence.
He will be formally sentenced on September 23, but he should be breathing easy at the moment as it’s now just a case of making the plea deal official.
