Former NFL running back Zac Stacy sentenced to jail time, probation after attacks on ex-girlfriend: report

Former NFL running back Zac Stacy has been sentenced to six months in jail and one year of probation, an Orange County, Florida judge ruled Monday night.

Stacy, 31, was found guilty of two counts of misdemeanor damages earlier this month, and his three counts of domestic violence assault were dropped as part of his plea agreement.

This comes after Stacy attacked his ex-girlfriend, Kristin Evans, who is also the mother of his son, at her home in August 2021.

That incident came months before another, which was caught on video when Stacy was seen brutalizing Evans in a Florida home with their 5-month-old son in the bedroom, TMZ Sports reported.

Video captured Stacy throwing Evans against a television after hitting her over the head in November 2021.

In the earlier altercation, Evans said the argument started “because he wanted the money he gave me back for the rent.”

Evans showed footage of large cuts and bruises on her arms and legs, noting that Stacy “hit my legs, slapped me, lifted me by my arms, and threw me against my window, which broke.” Evans said he had to remove glass from her feet for breaking the window.

Evans also said WESH-TV that Stacy had been assaulting her for months.

“It has plagued me for so long that at one point I thought it was my fault. It’s disturbing and disgusting to see things that people have said online about what I did. I did nothing. I never did anything to deserve something like that.” this, nobody could do anything to deserve something like this,” she told the station.

“The physical abuse started in May. I didn’t report it. I was pregnant at the time. I wanted my son’s father to be there for me and for the birth of his first child. So I forgave him.”

Stacy was originally charged with aggravated assault and criminal mischief after turning herself in to police in Orlando after the November attack.
