Former Spartan Appling To Serve One Year Behind Bars

WLNS.com reports that former Michigan State basketball star Keith Appling has learned the fate of his near future after being sentenced in a Wayne County courtroom Thursday. A judge ordered Appling to spend one year in jail and serve an additional four years on probation after pleading guilty to concealed weapons and resisting arrest charges.

Appling reportedly accepted a plea deal from prosecutors after driving away from police at a traffic stop last August. According to the story, Appling had other charges against him dismissed.
