Ex-Chief Riley pleads guilty to assault charge
Former Chiefs tackle Victor Riley pleaded guilty Friday to assaulting his wife during a 2001 domestic disturbance.
Riley, who played last season for the New Orleans Saints, had reached a diversion agreement with Johnson County prosecutors after the 2001 incident in Overland Park.
But he was charged last November with driving while intoxicated, and Johnson County prosecutors moved to revoke the diversion agreement.
Riley appeared in court Friday with his attorney, Kevin Regan, and agreed that he had violated the conditions of diversion.
He pleaded guilty to one count of aggravated assault for ramming his car into another car occupied by his wife and infant daughter.
District Judge Pro-tem Frank Gilman accepted the plea and found Riley guilty of the felony charge. Gilman scheduled sentencing for July 3.
Riley, 28, will receive probation under terms of the plea agreement, but he will be required to serve two weeks of shock time in jail.
