49ers: Demarcus Robinson pleads no contest in DUI case, receives sentence

Demarcus Robinson, 49ers Wide Receiver, Sentenced for DUI

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Demarcus Robinson pleaded “no contest” this week to a DUI (driving under the influence) charge and was sentenced to three years of probation. The declaration and sentencing of Robinson took place on Tuesday in Los Angeles. He was also ordered to pay a fine of $390 and complete court-ordered programs, including a three-month alcohol program, according to reports.

“Mr. Robinson has taken this process very seriously by already completing most of the terms of his parole. We expect his parole to end early at 18 months, after which his case will be erased,” said Jacqueline Sparagna, Robinson’s lawyer.

Sparagna also reported that two other charges (driving with a BAC of 0.08 or higher and driving without a valid license) were dismissed.

Robinson will also be subject to possible discipline from the NFL under the league’s personal conduct policy.

Robinson’s arrest last November occurred when he was a member of the Los Angeles Rams. The California Highway Patrol said officers observed him driving over 100 mph in a white Dodge sedan on US-101 northbound. He was charged in January.

In March, Robinson signed a two-year, $9.5 million contract in free agency with the 49ers. Last season, Robinson started in all 17 Rams games and led the team with seven touchdown receptions. He was fourth on the team with 31 receptions and 505 receiving yards. His receiving yards, receiving touchdowns, and yards per reception (16.3) were career highs.
