Reynolds was fined $300 and avoided probation after pleading guilty to criminal damaging and a reduced charge of disorderly conduct, both misdemeanors. Judge Carrie Glaeden ruled that if the former Ohio State player is convicted of another charge in the next year he faces further punishment.
An arrest warrant was issued for him on charges of domestic violence, assault and criminal damaging after a fight with his wife at her suburban Upper Arlington home Oct. 21. The couple's divorce is to be completed Tuesday.
Jennifer Reynolds told police her husband had driven to her home to visit their 2-year-old son and had started drinking that morning. They were watching TV when Reynolds found another man's number in her cell phone.
She told police her husband threw the phone against the living room wall, destroying the phone, and punched a small hole in the wall. She followed him outside, where he shoved her with both hands, causing her to fall against a wall.
Jennifer Reynolds, who was not hurt, told police she did not want to press charges and declined to seek a protection order.
