Former LSU lineman facing lengthy prison sentence

He was removed from the team last year.

LSU removed Trey Lealaimatafao from the team last season after a bar fight. It seems trouble has followed him to Arizona Western Community College where he transferred to after leaving LSU. Lealaimatafao is now facing six years in prison for his involvement in a string of robberies Los Angeles that took place in January.

Lealaimatafao, 19, pleaded no contest this past weekend to felony charges related to a series of robberies in South Los Angeles. He was immediately sentenced to six years in state prison.

Lealaimatafao entered his plea to a pair of second-degree robbery counts and one count of carjacking.

More details on the robberies, from Nola.com:

Prosecutors alleged that Dixon and Lealaimatafao would stop people, threaten them and steal their belongings. Each faced multiple charges including second-degree robbery, carjacking, attempted carjacking and assault with a deadly weapon. Dixon confessed to using a knife in the course of a robbery, according to reports.

It would be a fair assumption that the young man's football career is probably over at this point. The Texas native never played a down while in Baton Rouge.
