Pacman Jones cheated at the blackjack table and angrily confronted officers when they attempted to remove him. All of that was caught on camera and that footage has been obtained and released by TMZ.
Jones was arrested on February 27th during an altercation with police at an Indiana casino. The trouble started when Jones was spotted “capping bets.” A practice whereby a gambler will sneak extra chips onto his bet after he realizes he’s won the hand.
The video shows not only the cheating, but the tense altercation with police afterwards.
Jones clearly did not like being confronted by the officers. The former Cincinnati Bengal made multiple threats and obscene gestures towards the officers before Indiana Gaming Commission Enforcement agents decided they had enough, and arrested him.
According to TMZ Sports, “Jones copped a plea deal last month … and agreed to enter a guilty plea to one count of felony cheating at gambling and one count of misdemeanor resisting law enforcement in exchange for having the rest of the charges dropped.
“Jones is now set to spend 10 days behind bars for the incident … and will also serve a probation period that will bar him from drinking booze for a year and a half.”
Jones, 35, last played in the NFL in 2018. He appeared in seven games for the Denver Broncos.
