NFL Player Gets 30 Days For Killing Pedestrian While Drunk

MIAMI (AP) - Cleveland Browns wide receiver Donte' Stallworth is
going to serve 30 days in jail after pleading guilty in Florida to
a DUI manslaughter charge.

The plea deal announced Tuesday calls for the 28-year-old
Stallworth to also serve 10 years' probation and do 1,000 community
service hours for killing a pedestrian he hit with his car.
Stallworth had faced up to 15 years in prison.

Police say Stallworth was drinking at a hotel bar before the
March 14 crash that killed 59-year-old construction worker Mario
Reyes. Tests showed Stallworth's blood-alcohol content was .126.

Stallworth also reached a confidential financial settlement with
the Reyes' family. A person close to the negotiations told The
Association Press about the agreement on the condition of anonymity
because they were not authorized to talk about the deal.
