Former Montreal Canadiens forward Mike Ribeiro is in serious trouble. Indeed, the 43-year-old center is currently involved in a major trial in Franklin County, Texas, facing multiple assault charges alleged to have occurred during the summer of 2021.
Having had his best seasons after his time with the Canadiens, the former CH number 71 carries a somewhat dubious reputation, having experienced several substance abuse issues during his NHL career.
According to the testimonies of the three victims, whose identities have naturally remained anonymous, the three women visited Mike Ribeiro, who wanted to sell his house near Cypress Springs Lake. However, the Montreal-born player allegedly attempted to ****** the three women on a boat and on a jet ski.
Nearly three and a half years after the events, Mike Ribeiro finds himself in court facing very serious charges that could result in a 30-year prison sentence. For now, the final verdict of the court has not yet been announced, but this story certainly places the former Canadien in a delicate situation.
