(Denver-CO) The final gavel has been swung in the case of J.R. Smith's reckless driving in connection with a crash that killed a close friend two years ago. Smith will serve 30 days in jail after turning himself in Tuesday night. The jail term is the result of a plea agreement Smith reached with a municipal prosecutor in Millstone Township, the scene of the deadly June 9, 2007 accident. A grand jury declined to indict the NBA player on a more serious felony count of vehicular homicide, which could have landed him in prison for years.
Rest of the story here.
J.R. is very sincere in his apology to his friend's mother and is did the right thing by pleading guilty.
Go Nuggets!
