Morgan Wallen’s facing jail time.

In April, authorities arrested Morgan Wallen after his rooftop tantrum endangered people on the street below.

This was not his first incident of bad behavior. However, this time, it may cost him more than some bad press and some business ties.

Despite his legal team’s efforts, Morgan Wallen could end up behind bars.

Why is Morgan Wallen facing potential jail time?

It sounds like Morgan Wallen’s regrets over the Nashville chair-yeeting incident aren’t going away any time soon.

On April 7 of 2024, he allegedly threw a chair off of the roof of a Nashville bar. Eric Church’s new establishment on Broadway does not encourage or condone this sort of behavior.

However, it isn’t destruction of property — and the disorderly conduct — that led to Wallen’s arrest. He’s facing three felony counts of reckless endangerment alongside his misdemeanor disorderly conduct charge.

When you throw a chair from a rooftop, it’s liable to land somewhere. In this case, the chair allegedly landed near two police officers below.

If you are wealthy and even moderately famous, you can get away with all sorts of things because trying to hold you accountable would be too much of a pain. However, slightly startling police has cost countless Americans their lives. It cannot be a surprise that this led to his arrest.

Obviously, it’s almost certain that he had no idea that the officers were below. But that’s the point of the charges. When you throw a piece of furniture off of a building, you run the risk of recklessly endangering anyone unlucky enough to be below.

Is Morgan Wallen facing actual jail time?

According to a report by Life & Style, Morgan Wallen’s attorneys have not been able to get their client a “slap on the wrist.”

His past legal issues (this is not his first disorderly conduct arrest) may have led him to believe that his behavior will never have real consequences.

“Morgan’s lawyers have tried to strike a deal where he’d receive probation,” an inside source dished. “But it’s looking bleak at this point. He’s likely to spend time behind bars.”

He faces as much as six years in prison — though, obviously, his attorney would like to reduce that time as much as possible.

Of course, he’d first need a conviction on all three counts of felony reckless endangerment before he could receive such a stiff sentence.

According to the report, Morgan Wallen’s attorneys are telling him that “the best scenario is a 30- to 60-day sentence.”

There may be no easy way out this time

“I don’t think the prosecutors want him to skate away with no time because people will think it’s because of his celebrity status,” the inside source opined.

For an ordinary person, a 30-60 day jail sentence could mean losing a home, losing a job, and more. While Morgan Wallen likely doesn’t have to worry about that, this could have real consequences for his career.

The insider explained: “If Morgan has a felony conviction, it’s going to make it hard for him to get work visas to tour internationally!”

Well, yeah. Many countries might not want a visit from a furniture-throwing maniac.
