Morgan Wallen Faces Up To 6 Years in Prison and Court Delay For Chair-Throwing Case
#morganwallen #prison #etribune Country music star Morgan Wallen could face up to 6 years in prison and three felony charges for tossing a chair off a bar roof earlier this year. Wallen’s court hearing, initially set for Thursday, August 15, has been rescheduled to December 12 after the judge granted a postponement, according to Billboard. Wallen was taken into custody following an incident at Eric Church’s new honky tonk on Broadway in Nashville on Sunday, April 7, according to News Channel 5. The 30-year-old singer allegedly threw a chair from the bar's rooftop, causing it to land about 3 feet away from two Metro Nashville police officers who were positioned in front of Chief’s Bar on Broadway that night. Bar staff informed officers that Wallen threw the chair from the building's sixth floor, according to News Channel 5. Video footage of the incident also captured the chair being thrown. Wallen shared his response to the incident on Twitter: “I didn't feel right publicly checking in until I made amends with some folks. I’ve touched base with Nashville law enforcement, my family, and the good people at Chief’s. I'm not proud of my behavior, and I accept responsibility.” Officers viewed video footage showing Wallen “lunging and throwing an object over the roof,” according to the news outlet. Bar staff also claimed that Wallen was laughing after throwing the chair. The singer faces charges of disorderly conduct and three counts of reckless endangerment, according to court records. He has reportedly posted a $15,250 bond. Due to the singer's celebrity status and the proximity of the chair to the officers, People reported that each of Wallen’s felony charges could result in one to two years in prison. This means he could potentially receive up to six years in prison. However, criminal defense attorney David Raybin informed People that it's unlikely he will serve these sentences consecutively. “It’s based on prior record and extreme dangerousness of the offense: professional, criminal, sex offense,” he said to the outlet. “Generally speaking, this would not be consecutive.” Keep up with the day's top news stories with The Express Tribune's YouTube Channel.
