Arrest warrant out for Antonio Brown after his trainer, Glen Holt, charged with a felony carrying a max sentence of life in prison

Antonio Brown’s trainer, Glen Holt, charged with a felony carrying a max sentence of life in prison 

 

An arrest was made at former NFL player Antonio Brown’s Hollywood Oaks house Tuesday after Hollywood police responded to a 911 call reporting a battery at about 2 p.m. 

The driver of a moving truck was allegedly battered by both Brown and his trainer, Glen Holt, according to ESPN news.  Holt was arrested and charged with one count of felony burglary with battery. He was booked into the Broward County Jail in Fort Lauderdale Tuesday evening, according to the Sun Sentinel.

An arrest warrant has been issued for Antonio Brown, the Sun Sentinel reported Wednesday evening. Brown now faces charges of burglary with battery, burglary of an unoccupied conveyance and criminal mischief less than $1,000.

 

The criminal investigation is still ongoing, but Brown – who is a suspect – has not been arrested or charged with any crimes as of Tuesday morning. Police tried to make contact with Brown for further questioning, but weren’t able to, according to ESPN. Police hope to make contact with Brown to determine if they will bring battery charges against him. 

 

“Brown’s home is located in a gated community in Hollywood where multiple neighbors told ESPN they’ve been fed up with the antics coming from the Brown home including multiple police encounters this month,” ESPN writes

 

Police have been at Brown’s home several times this month in response to arguments between him and his live-in girlfriend and mother of his three children, according to the Sun Sentinel. Just last week, “Brown cursed at Hollywood cops and waved a bag of gummy candies shaped like penises at officers,” the Sun Sentinel writes. 

 

The NFL has already begun their own investigation into this week’s battery incident, according to ESPN. Additionally, the NFL is still investigating sexual assault allegations made against Brown after his former trainer, Britney Taylor filed a lawsuit alleging Brown sexually assaulted her multiple times. 

Florida Burglary and Battery Consequences:

Holt and Brown are both facing one felony count of burglary with battery which is punishable by imprisonment for life — but there is no mandatory minimum sentence, which means probation is also possible for Holt and Brown if either of them are convicted. 

 

In Florida, a simple battery charge is typically a first-degree misdemeanor. With the addition of burglary – which in this case perhaps could have been Holt or Brown entering the back of the moving truck, for example, the charge becomes a life felony. That means that burglary with a battery can send someone to prison for life. Someone charged with burglary with battery also is not automatically entitled to bond which could mean they’re stuck in jail for the entirety of their case.

I had an unfortunate situation with a family member that lead to my arrest and being charged with DV Battery. This was the first time I had ever been arrested so I was very nervous and afraid of what was going to happen to me. After talking with Adam I decided to retain him and let me tell you this was the BEST decision I could have ever made. Adam made me feel so comfortable and confident that everything will turn out the best in my favor. He is professional, ethical and supportive. He was always available too answer any questions or concerns.Not to mention, his team at the office is awesome they are so friendly and welcoming. Anytime I had a question when I called the office they were able to guide me in the rightdirection. They always were in contact with me with any information or updates regarding my case. Adams team is GREAT!Adam delivered, my case was DISMISSED. So if you want an attorney the is gonna fight for you and get the job done retain the BEST there is Adam Rossen!!!

I had an amazing experience with The Rossen Law Firm. The staff were very professional. Attorney Susan Lawson went above and beyond working on my case. We were thoroughly prepared for trial. Mrs. Lawson reviewed hours of body and dash camera footage multiple times and aggressively performed depositions on witnesses and law enforcement.The final outcome for me was the state dropped my case, due to the great work Susan and the Rossen team performed. I didn’t even need to go to trial.This law firm does not play around. They pay attention to detail and they FIGHT FOR YOU!Thank you Adam, team, and a special thank you to Susan for your amazing work! I really appreciate you.

My experience with Rossen Law Firm was excellent. From the consultation to the end.. My attorney Susan Lawson gave my son's case all the time and attention that was needed to be successful in court. She was confident during all the court proceedings. My favorite part was when she said we are family, never once my son and I were treated other then that. I very much appreciate the knowledge and support I received through Rossen Law Firm.
