Former San Francisco 49er Ray McDonald has been charged with felony false imprisonment for allegedly physically assaulting his ex-fiancee in California while she was holding their baby, prosecutors announced Thursday.
In a statement, the Santa Clara County district attorney’s office said McDonald faces up to three years in prison if convicted.
Prosecutor James Demertzis said in a statement that it was “unconscionable and illegal for any woman to be trapped, whether it be behind a dining room table or in a relationship filled with fear and violence.”
McDonald is accused of breaking into his ex-fiancee’s bedroom around 4 a.
