The police report, which was obtained by TMZ Sports, noted that Damon’s B.A.C was .30 which is almost 4x over the legal limit of .08. The 47-year-old ex-MLB player was was ultimately charged with misdemeanor DUI and was facing up to 9 months in jail if convicted.

Instead, prosecutors offered Damon a deal of a donation to charity and community service hours. Johnny Damon’s wife on the other hand is not so lucky. She was charged with two felonies for allegedly battering officers on the scene and could face jail time if convicted.

Michelle has plead not guilty to the charges, but the case is still playing out in court.
