Ex-NFL star Antonio Brown accepts plea deal, will avoid prison in attempted murder case
Antonio Brown will accept a plea deal in his attempted murder case in Miami, avoiding a potential lengthy prison sentence stemming from a May 2025 incident outside a celebrity boxing match.
Antonio Brown, the former NFL star wide receiver, has opted to accept a plea deal in his attempted murder case, avoiding a potential lengthy prison sentence, according to his attorney. In a plea agreement, Brown will face a reduced charge of aggravated assault and serve probation, rather than risking a minimum mandatory 20-year prison sentence.
Brown's attorney, Mark Eiglarsh, stated that the plea deal was a result of the prosecution offering him an option he couldn't refuse. If convicted, Brown would have faced a potential maximum 30-year sentence for his alleged role in the May 2025 incident, which occurred following a celebrity boxing event in Miami.
