Chad Johnson finally has some good news to celebrate. After serving only a week of his 30-day prison sentence, he is reportedly being released from a Florida prison Monday (June 17). Ochocinco received the sentence after allegedly slapping his male lawyer’s behind playfully in court last week during a hearing for his domestic violence case involving ex-wife/ reality star Evelyn Lozada. Though he shall be a free man earlier than expected, the judge extended his probation a month longer, meaning he must stay on his best behavior till October 16. The former NFL star has been singing the blues since the public spat, even struggling financially and losing more than $45,000 a month. Still, he hasn’t been alone. Johnson’s former teammate Terrell Owens paid him a visit this past weekend, calling the experience “humbling” on his timeline.
Just visited the homie @ochocinco. He’s in good spirits, he needs a haircut already tho. Lol. He sends his best regards to everyone.

That was the 1st time ever visiting someone in jail & hopefully the last. That’s not a place anyone wants to be regardless of how many days.

know that’s not where anyone wants to be. I know he’s only in the county jail but to someone that has never been locked up…Jail is Jail!
