MADISON, Wis. — Former University of Wisconsin-Madison Badger football player Booker Stanley was sentenced on Monday to one year in jail with work-released privileges after being convicted of attacking his ex-girlfriend.
During his sentencing on Monday afternoon, the ex-running back blamed alcohol for his legal troubles.
Stanley was convicted in July of sexually assaulting and battering his former girlfriend last year. Before that, Stanley was arrested at the Mifflin Street Block Party following a violent scuffle, WISC-TV reported.
