SAN FRANCISCO – San Francisco 49ers owner Jed York has pleaded no contest to two criminal charges after being arrested on suspicion of engaging in prostitution, official court records and reports said on Aug 24 .
Ohio court records showed on Aug 24 that York had been fined $1,150 (S$1,461) after being hit with misdemeanour charges of disorderly conduct and possessing criminal tools.
Multiple US media reports said York was initially held on a charge of “engaging in prostitution” following his arrest by East Palestine Police on Aug 23 .
That charge was subsequently amended to misdemeanor disorderly conduct following his no contest plea.
York was also sentenced to one day in jail on each charge, but was released on Aug 24 due to time served after being detained following his arrest.
A no contest plea is not an admission of guilt but an acceptance of a conviction and punishment, usually as part of a plea bargain.
York, 46, is the principal owner and chief executive of the San Francisco 49ers and is also a co-owner of English Premier League side Leeds United and Scottish giants Rangers. AFP
