BLAKELY, Ga. (AP) - Former New Orleans Saints defensive end
Charles Grant, who was charged with involuntary manslaughter for
his involvement in a nightclub fight that killed a pregnant woman,
pleaded no contest to a charge of affray and was sentenced to
probation.
Assistant District Attorney Ron Smith says Grant was fined
$1,000 and ordered to pay $20,000 restitution to the Early County
Sheriff's Office last week for his role in the February, 2008
fight.
The 31-year-old Grant, who is from nearby Colquitt, Ga., was
stabbed in the neck during the fight that resulted in the death of
23-year-old Korynda Reed.
Smith says Grant's longtime friend, Laquient Macklin, and
Grant's cousin, Marshae Stromer, pleaded guilty to charges of
involuntary manslaughter and affray and paid $1,000 fine and put on
two years probation.
