UK SAFETY PLEADS GUILTY TO ‘TERRORISTIC THREATENING’

An incident last September has earned Kentucky defensive back Ashton Cobb two years probation, the Lexington Herald-Leader is reporting.Cobb earlier today pleaded guilty to one count of terroristic threatening, a charge that grew out of a dispute with his ex-girlfriend. According to the charges, Cobb called the victim 19 times and text messaged her 15 times in a three-hour period last September 25.In those exchanges, court records state, Cobb threatened to rape and kill the woman.In addition to probation, Cobb was also ordered to attend anger management classes and have no contact with the woman.The senior safety was suspended by the school following the incident -- missing the school’s game with Western Kentucky -- but was reinstated shortly thereafter following a review by the university’s appeals board, a review which found Cobb was “not an immediate threat to himself or others.”
