This story keeps getting crazier and crazier.
Mychelle Johnson had Hornets restricted free agent and the father of her children Miles Bridges, arrested for domestic violence.
Bridges just accepted a plea deal to stay out of jail.
Charlotte Hornets restricted free agent Miles Bridges pleaded no contest to a felony domestic violence charge Thursday morning in Los Angeles Superior Court and will face three years of probation and no jail time as part of a deal with prosecutors.
The no-contest plea means Bridges, who was present in court, is accepting the punishment and the conviction without formally admitting guilt in the case. Bridges was accused of assaulting his then-girlfriend in front of their two children in May. In July, Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascon’s office filed three felony charges against Bridges, who initially pleaded not guilty to all three.
On Thursday, Bridges’ attorney and the DA’s office reached an agreement, which a prosecutor said the woman agreed to and approved of, that he plead no contest to one count — California Penal Code Section 273.5(a), which covers domestic violence toward a spouse or other cohabitant — and that the other two counts be dismissed. The felony charges also included “an allegation of causing great bodily injury on the domestic violence victim,” and that allegation was dismissed as part of the plea agreement.
Bridges have now gone to court to get a restraining order against Johnson for stalking him, according to TMZ Sports.
NBA star Miles Bridges has filed for a restraining order against the woman who accused him of domestic violence … claiming she’s harassed him repeatedly — and won’t stop.
Bridges spelled out his claims in new court documents, obtained by TMZ Sports, alleging that despite a June 27 argument between the two that turned physical and ultimately resulted in the basketball player’s arrest … Mychelle Johnson will not leave him alone.
Bridges says on three separate occasions, including just two days after he accepted a plea deal to close out his criminal case with Johnson, she’s showed up to his home or places he’s staying and harassed him, causing him emotional distress and anxiety.
The first incident allegedly happened on Oct. 12. In the docs, Bridges claims he had been renting an Airbnb in Los Angeles … when Johnson unexpectedly entered his side gate with their two kids.
Bridges said in the documents that due to the ongoing criminal case with Johnson — and the protective orders that had been put in place — he ran inside in an attempt to avoid her.
He claims, though, his door would not lock — so he had to hold it shut as Mychelle allegedly attempted to break in by swinging a hose nozzle at the home.
Bridges says after she couldn’t get in, she then stole his dog, and left with their children.
Nearly three weeks later, on Oct. 31, Bridges said in the docs that Johnson followed him and his friends home from an L.A. hookah lounge at around 2:30 AM, and sat in his driveway with their two kids in her car demanding he speaks with her.
Bridges claim she stayed at the Hookah lounge for six hours in her car waiting for him.
This is a toxic relationship.
Hopefully, it will be over, and no one else will be harmed.
