WASHINGTON (AP)—An attorney for Washington Wizards guard Javaris Crittenton(notes) says the player will plead guilty to a misdemeanor gun charge—10 days after teammate Gilbert Arenas(notes) pleaded guilty to a felony gun charge.
Crittenton was charged Monday with two misdemeanors—possession of an unregistered firearm and attempted carrying a pistol without a license.

Crittenton’s lawyer, Peter H. White, says prosecutors plan to drop the second charge if Crittenton pleads guilty. He says Crittenton brought a legally owned, unloaded handgun to Washington “only because he legitimately feared for his life.” He says the player accepts responsibility for his conduct.

Arenas pleaded guilty on Jan. 15 to a felony gun charge connected to a locker-room argument that is believed to have involved Crittenton.

I don't buy it. You have to be an idiot to bring a gun on to your place of employment. Both guys are lucky they got it off as easy as they did.
