Former Dodger in Need of a Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney

Posted on: January 20, 2011 at 12:28 a.m.

Milton Bradley, former Dodger outfielder and long time headache for Major League Baseball, is in trouble with the law again, this time after an outburst in Van Nuys, CA. Bradley has previously needed the assistance of a Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney for his actions, and this time he could be facing some serious consequences. He was taken into custody in Van Nuys and booked for suspicion of making criminal threats after allegedly making threats against a woman. His bail was set at $50,000 and was released from prison the same day. No names of any alleged victims were included in the report, but a court schedule was set for February 8. This is just another in a long list of legal problems for Bradley, who was ordered to serve a three day jail sentence in 2004 after being charged for leaving the scene of a traffic stop. He was also charged with failure to comply after police said he drove away without signing his speeding ticket. In addition to legal challenges, Bradley has had off the field and on the field problems that have labeled him a major trouble maker.

In 2004, Bradely called a reporter an "Uncle Tom". Also in 2004, he was ordered to undergo anger management counseling while with the Dodgers being suspended for charging a fan in the stands who threw a bottle near him. In 2009, he exploded in the dugout while with the Cubs and was sent home by manager Lou Piniella. Again in 2009 he was suspended after arguing with an umpire when he was called out on strikes with teh bases loaded. He's called himself the Kanye West of baseball. He has needed a Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney on many occasions, making ongoing legal troubles that much more difficult. Any judge, jury or prosecuting attorney will be jaded when a defendant has a prior criminal record. In 2005, the Los Angeles Dodgers got so fed up with Bradley that they traded him for now all-star Andre Ethier. He's played on 11 teams, leaving just about every team after some anger fueled tirade or confrontation with either management or a member of the media. Trying to defend him would be a difficult job even for the most experienced Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney.

Being charged with the crimes Bradley is charged with could lead to serious jail time, large fines, probation and more. With a prior criminal record, it could turn a misdemeanor into a felony. There are very few details as to exactly what Bradley said or did to the woman, but if he made violent threats, it could lead to some serious prison time and a dangerous trial. His Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney will have to analyze the entire situation and may fight hard for a plea bargain.
