Cedric Benson Sentenced to 20 Days in Jail
Written by playerpress.com, Monday August 29 2011
Cincinnati Bengals running back Cedric Benson was sentenced to 20 days in jail Monday for two misdemeanor assault cases in Texas.
Benson reached a deal with the district attorney and will surrender to authorities on Oct. 17, the Monday of the Bengals bye week.
Benson’s jail time could be significantly shorter than the 20 days given as the running back could be given credit for time served after his arrest and Texas state law requires that inmates be given two days credit for each good behavior day awarded.
Overcrowding in Texas jails could also be a factor that could reduce his sentence.
