Back in March of 2022, Sherman pleaded guilty to first degree negligent driving, second degree criminal trespass, and speeding through a construction zone.
At the time of his sentencing on these charges, Fox 13 reported:Ezoic
“According to court documents, Sherman is required to pay $2,500 for the two misdemeanor charges and the traffic infraction, and additional court fees.
“Sherman was given a 90-day suspended sentence for each count, with two days credit given from his initial arrest. He was assigned to have monitored supervision for the next two years. He will not serve any further jail time unless he violates the terms of the agreement.
“Sherman must stay out of any further trouble, which includes any criminal, alcohol or drug-related offenses.
“As conditions of his sentence, Sherman is required to have a mandatory interlock device on his vehicle. Sherman has also been ordered to attend Alcohol and Drug Information School and attend a DUI Victim’s Panel.”

Apparently, Sherman had crashed his car in a construction zone, but then fled the scene to his in-laws’ house. There he got into a verbal altercation with them through a locked door and did damage to their house.
It appears he, in fact, did not learn his lesson.
