Pawn Stars’ Chumlee could avoid jail time in his recent drugs and weapons case.
Austin Lee Russell, known by most as “Chumlee” was arrested March 9 during a sexual assault investigation. Officers raided his home and found drugs and guns.
According to documents obtained by TMZ, the District Attorney is expected to charge Chumlee with felony possession of a firearm and a controlled substance, but documents say his attorneys got him a plea deal.
Chumlee will get probation and no jail time and that the two felony charges will eventually become misdemeanors once he completes probation.
As for the alleged sexual assault case that originally brought officers to his home, an in-depth investigation was run and both sides found there was not enough evidence to charge him.
Chumlee already had felonies in his past which is why he couldn’t own the firearms. This is an incredible deal. Any of us would be looking at serious jail time and still have these new felonies on our record.
