Chicago DUI lawyer provides an update on Donte Stallworth's DUI

Donte Stallworth was released from jail yesterday. I previously posted about his case here. He now begins two years of house arrest and eight years of probation. Additionally, he is indefinitely suspended from the NFL.


NFL player Donte' Stallworth was released from Miami-Dade jail early Friday morning, according to jail officials.

Stallworth pleaded guilty on June 16 to DUI manslaughter in the death of 59-year-old crane operator Mario Reyes and was sentenced to 30 days in jail.

Stallworth was released at 5:55 a.m. Friday, said Janelle Hall, a jail spokeswoman.

Stallworth will spend the next decade under house arrest and probation.

It is not uncommon for every day folks, e.g. non-celebrities, to have their sentences reduced so I don't believe Mr. Stallworth received any special treatment by having his sentence shortened by six days.
