Defendants Plead to Resisting Arrest After Lakers Victory in 2010

In 2010 after the Los Angeles Lakers won the NBS championship, some fans went wild and even partook in mob activates that included vandalism. This led to the attempted arrest of two suspects – this, however, did not turn out quite well as they did not go quietly.

The defendants are now facing criminal charges for resisting arrest and have pleaded guilty. As part of the sentencing, they have been slapped with penalties that include probation, incarceration and mandatory attendance in anger management classes. They have also been ordered to stay away from the Staples Center and the surrounding area during their probation period.
