“I love and support my husband, Sherman s wife, Ashley Sherman, said in a statement after the hearing. I am committed to helping Richard get the support and care that he needs. Richard has always been a loving father and husband. And we are looking forward to seeing him at home with his family.”
Sherman was belligerent, had been drinking heavily and had spoken of killing himself when he left his home in the Seattle suburb of Maple Valley late Tuesday, according to police reports. Ashley Sherman called 911 to try to have police stop him.
He was arrested early Wednesday after police said he crashed his car in a construction zone along a busy highway east of Seattle and then tried to break into his in-laws’ home in the suburb of Redmond.
Former NFL All-Pro Richard Sherman was released from jail without bail on Thursday.
King County District Court Judge Fa’amomoi Masaniai found probable cause that Sherman committed criminal trespassing, malicious mischief, driving under the influence and resisting arrest. He was initially booked on a felony residential burglary. Sherman is not allowed to have contact with his father-in-law and he cannot use alcohol or nonprescription drugs, the judge ordered.

SEATTLE (AP) Un juez ordenó que el jugador de la NFL Richard Sherman fuera liberado de una prisión sin el pago de fianza el jueves, un día después de que se le arrestó por tratar de irrumpir en la casa de los familiares de su esposa.
Fa amomoi Masaniai, juez de la corte de distrito del condado de King, encontró causa probable de que Sherman haya cometido los delitos de invasión de propiedad privada, vandalismo, conducir alcoholizado y resistirse a un arresto.
Los fiscales no pidieron que el juez se pronunciara sobre una acusación grave por irrupción en una vivienda para delinquir, por la que se le detuvo inicialmente. La fiscalía no presenta todavía los cargos formalmente.
SEATTLE (AP) – A judge ordered former Seattle Seahawks and San Francisco 49ers star Richard Sherman released from jail without bail Thursday following his arrest on suspicion of trying to break in to his in-laws’ home.
King County District Court Judge Fa’amomoi Masaniai found probable cause that Sherman committed criminal trespassing, malicious mischief, driving under the influence and resisting arrest. Prosecutors did not ask the judge for a finding on a felony residential burglary allegation for which he was initially booked. They have not yet filed charges.
Masaniai declined to set $10,000 bail as prosecutors requested. The judge called Sherman, who did not attend the hearing, a “pillar of the community” and noted that it was presumed he would be released because this was his first arrest. He ordered that Sherman not have contact with his father-in-law and that he not use alcohol or nonprescription drugs.
