Ruling Made In Case Against Ex - Michigan Coach Sherrone Moore

Former Michigan Wolverines head football coach Sherrone Moore was sentenced to 18 months' probation on Tuesday (April 14) in connection with an incident at the apartment of a former staff member with whom he was alleged to have had an inappropriate relationship that led to his firing in December, ESPN's Dan Wetzel reports. The ruling came one month after Moore agreed to plead no contest to two new misdemeanor charges as part of a deal to drop a previous felony count and two separate misdemeanors. Moore, 40, a married father of three, allegedly drove to the home of Paige Shiver and threatened to harm himself shortly after his firing on December 10. Prosecutors agreed to drop the initial, more serious charges in exchange for Moore pleading no contest to two new misdemeanor charges of malicious use of a telecommunication device in a domestic relationship and trespassing.
