Aggravated burglary is a serious charge:I figure it is not the end of her playing career if she can stay out of jail. I don't think the assault is going to put her there since it seemed to be more of a screaming match other than actual violence. Kicking in a door is the worst offense. Most coaches would handle this as a first offense and not dismiss from team guess we'll find out more in a week or so. I hope it is not the end for her a lot of players make a mistake like this and are allowed to move on from it. Even Dawn let a player move on from an incident where there was actually physical violence.
In Tennessee, aggravated burglary is a Class C felony. It involves the unlawful entry of a habitation with the intent to commit a felony, theft, or assault inside. A habitation is defined as any structure designed or adapted for overnight dwelling, including occupied vehicles. Sentencing can range from 3 to 15 years in prison, and a fine of up to $10,000 may be imposed
I suspect that this will be plead down to a much lesser charge, assuming it is not not dropped all together (fingers crossed). I am hoping for some significant mediating circumstances, cause this situation is way beyond skipping a class or other run of the mill violations of team rules.
