"This is absolutely disgusting": Fans claim Pat Mahomes Sr. got off easy with DWI sentence, $10,000 fine

Patrick Mahomes and his family got jolted after his father Pat Mahomes Sr. was found guilty in a DWI arrest from February earlier this year. As per reports, it was Mahomes Sr.’s third such arrest, but fans deem the sentence to be too lenient.

A few days after the Kansas City Chiefs won the Super Bowl, Pat Mahomes Sr. was arrested in Texas and was charged with a felony in February. In August, Mahomes Sr. pleaded guilty to the charges, and on Sept. 23, the court sentenced him.

“Pat Mahomes Sr. has been sentenced to five years probation in Judge Kerry L. Russell’s court. The father of the Chiefs star QB was arrested in February for the third time on account of a DWI.”

As the news of the sentence of Mahomes’ father spread, fans voiced their opinions.

Mahomes Sr. will have to spend 10 days in jail and five years in probation and a fine of $10,000. Fans consider that he got off easily due to the stature of his illustrious son Patrick Mahomes.

“First the refs now the judges? Mahomes is out of control!,” one wrote on Reddit.

“Poor baby. Has to spend 10 days in jail? I hope he can bear it. Idiot!,” wrote one fan.

Many fans expressed their anger at the sentencing.

“This is absolutely disgusting. He was charged with FELONY DUI, with 3 or more (news articles say he's had SIX), with an open container. Penalties for 3rd or more include 2 to 10 YEARS in prison. Habitual offenders are supposed to get LIFE,” wrote one fan.

“I hate that he just keeps getting a slap on the wrist,” wrote another fan.

“His DL should be suspended 10 years or revoked all together. Based on his comments he clearly doesn’t take any responsibility for his actions,” wrote a fan.
