Antonio Brown gets first legal win in attempted murder case
NY Post
Former NFL star wide receiver Antonio Brown will be released on $25,000 bail and must wear a GPS ankle monitor on an attempted murder charge in Florida, a judge ordered Wednesday.
Brown, 37, has pleaded not guilty to the second-degree attempted murder charge, which carries a potential 15-year prison sentence and a fine up to $10,000 if he is convicted.
His lawyer, Mark Eiglarsh, said Brown would return to his home in Broward County, Florida, while the case proceeds. Prosecutors had sought pretrial detention, contending Brown is a high-paid former professional athlete with the resources to flee.
“He no longer has a passport. He’ll be living at his home. I look forward to working with him zealously on this case,” Eiglarsh told Circuit Judge Mindy Glazer at a bond hearing.
Brown appeared at the hearing via video wearing a red jail shirt and spoke only to answer questions from the judge.
According to an arrest warrant, Brown is accused of grabbing a handgun from a security staffer after a celebrity boxing match in Miami on May 16 and firing two shots at a man he had gotten into a fistfight with earlier. The victim, Zul-Qarnain Kwame Nantambu, told investigators that one of the bullets grazed his neck.
