San Francisco 49ers owner John "Jed" York was arrested by the East Palestine Police Department in Ohio over the weekend and
pleaded no contest to two charges, per KRON4 News in San Francisco.
York was initially charged with suspicion of engaging in prostitution, but Ohio amended that to a disorderly conduct charge. York was also charged with possessing criminal tools. York pleaded no contest to both charges Monday. A person who pleads "no contest" does not admit guilt, but does accept the punishment for the alleged crimes as if they had been proven guilty.
In York's case, he was sentenced to one day in jail for each count. York was also ordered to pay two fines — $150 for disorderly conduct and $1,000 for possessing criminal tools — per KRON4.
The arrest report did not state what York was carrying that resulted in the possessing criminal tools charge. The items that can result in a possessing criminal tools charge
can vary widely in Ohio.
