Former Crimson Tide player Isaiah Buggs announced his return back with full commitment…..

Court documents show that he was sentenced on July 19 to 365 days of hard labor. The judgment ordered him to serve 60 days with credit. The remaining 300 days are to be suspended for a period of two years, pending Buggs’ behavior.

He is not allowed to possess or be around firearms and is not allowed to own dogs or cats.

Buggs has filed an appeal in the case.

Buggs also faces domestic violence and burglary charges. He has a preliminary hearing set for Aug. 20.

Buggs surrendered his business license to operate the Kings Hookah Lounge he owns in Tuscaloosa, according to court documents.

The lounge announced on social media that it was closing permanently after Buggs was jailed on burglary and domestic violence charges from an early morning arrest in Tuscaloosa.

The Kansas City Chiefs announced on social media that the team was releasing Buggs after a later arrest.

Around 5:30 a.m. on June 16, officers responded to a domestic incident at the Legacy at Country Club apartment complex on Mimosa Park Road, according to the Tuscaloosa Police Department.

While en route, officers were updated that the suspect, later identified as Buggs, had left the scene in a white Cadillac, court documents allege. That same Cadillac was then spotted by officers in the parking lot of a Little Caesars just down the road; Buggs could be seen standing beside it.

While one officer detained Buggs, court documents state that another continued on to the apartment complex, where they discovered an apartment had been broken into with a tire iron.

Inside, officers made contact with a woman, the mother of Buggs’ child, who had reportedly been dragged down the stairs, causing “scratch marks to her wrist and broke off several clip-on toenails.”

Court documents allege that a witness captured video of Buggs entering the apartment. That witness reportedly made the initial 911 call, which prompted the former Alabama player to leave the premises.

Court records state that during the investigation, enough probable cause was found to charge Buggs with second-degree burglary/domestic violence.

Buggs was taken to the Tuscaloosa County Jail and was being held on a 24-hour domestic violence charge hold and $5,000 bond, said the police department.

However, following his release, Buggs’ bond was revoked, and he was taken back into custody.

Buggs’ attorney said his client denies the allegations and charges against him.

Former NFL player Isaiah Buggs has been sentenced in Alabama to a year of hard labor after being found guilty of two counts of misdemeanor animal cruelty, reports CBS News. Tuscaloosa County District Judge Joanne Jannik specified that Buggs is to serve 60 days, with the remainder suspended for two years dependent on his behavior.

Buggs, 27, is also prohibited from owning or being in the proximity of firearms, besides not being permitted to own dogs or cats.

This ruling comes in the wake of his release by the Kansas City Chiefs on June 24, which followed his arrest on a separate domestic violence/burglary charge in Alabama.
