twitterEx-Colts QB to serve more time
Thursday, Aug. 2, 2001 | 10:50 a.m.
INDIANAPOLIS -- Former Colts quarterback Art Schlichter has been ordered to serve six more years in prison for violating his probation.
Marion Superior Court Judge Grant Hawkins issued the sentence Wednesday despite a plea by Schlichter's mother that her son receive more rehabilitation for a gambling addiction instead of prison time.
Schlichter, 41, already was serving five years after pleading guilty in January to money laundering, forging securities and unauthorized use of credit cards. He said his gambling addiction played a major role in his involvement in the scam.
In April six months was added to Schlichter's sentence for a misdemeanor charge of illegal gambling.
The judge on Wednesday added an additional six years and 254 days to Schlichter's sentence for violating probation from a 1997 conviction for forgery and theft.
