Nathan Fenno of the LA Times gives us the latest on Slava Voynov. Fenno reported that Voynov has been released from jail and immediately taken into immigration custody by ICE. At each step of the Voynov story, things seem to become more and more complicated. One might think that being released from jail is one step closer to being a Los Angeles Kings defenseman again, but the reality is opposite.
As many already know, Voynov was arrested last October for assaulting his wife at a Halloween party and in their home. He now faces deportation based on how the case with immigration court goes.
