Antonio Brown Faces Up to 30 Years in Prison on Attempted Murder Charge
Former NFL star wide receiver Antonio Brown could face up to 30 years in prison if convicted of attempted murder, as a firearm was allegedly used in the incident. Brown appeared via video for an arraignment hearing in Miami-Dade Circuit Court, where his lawyer entered a not guilty plea. He was released on a $25,000 bond and is required to wear a GPS ankle monitor. The attempted murder charge, combined with a firearm sentencing enhancement, could lead to a potential 20-year minimum mandatory sentence. Brown is accused of firing two shots after a physical altercation following a celebrity boxing match on May 16. His lawyer disputes the affidavit, stating Brown used his personal firearm and shots were not aimed. Brown, who last played in 2021 for Tampa Bay, was extradited from Dubai after an arrest warrant was issued in June.
