EXCLUSIVE! Nathan Griffith Sentenced After Failing Out of Veteran’s Court Program; Former ‘Teen Mom 2’ Headed to Rehab Again

Nathan Griffith was back in court this week for sentencing. The former Teen Mom 2 dad faced a judge after having his probation revoked due to him failing out of his court-ordered program.

Earlier this month, The Ashley exclusively revealed that Nathan had been thrown out of the Veteran’s Court program he was sentenced to last year after he pleaded guilty to attacking his sister via attempted assault by strangulation. According to court documents obtained by The Ashley, Nathan was kicked out of the program due to him not having “adhered to the programming rules and policies.”

The baby daddy and former soulmate of Jenelle Evans has been in jail since June, but was brought out of his cell on Thursday to go before a judge to be resentenced for the crime of Attempted Assault by Strangulation. (Had he complied with the terms of his original Veterans Court probation, Nathan’s case would have been dismissed after 36 months.)

The Ashley can exclusively reveal that Nathan was sentenced to a minimum of 12 months (with a max of 48 months) in prison. However, the former MTV star had his sentence suspended. Nathan was again ordered to go back on probation for “an indeterminate period not to exceed 24 months.”

He was also ordered again into a residential treatment facility (despite the fact that he has been unsuccessful in several court-ordered rehab programs since his original arrest). He will remain in the Clark County Jail until he is transferred to the rehab facility. (Interestingly, another ‘Teen Mom 2’ dad, Bar Smith, is also in the Clark County Jail as of press time!)

“Maybe if we get a couple more ‘Teen Mom’ guys over here, we can start an MTV wing of the jail or something!”

If Nathan flunks out of the rehab program and/or doesn’t adhere to the new terms of his probation, he will go to prison for 12-48 months.

Even if Nathan is successful with both programs, he will still have the felony charge on his record.

The judge in the case imposed three “special conditions” of probation for Nathan. In addition to complying with a curfew, he is required to complete rehab, and then after completing rehab he must enter a Veteran’s intensive outpatient treatment program and comply with the terms of that program.

Nathan is required to follow all of the rules of standard probation as well, which include reporting to his parole officers and submitting a written report each month. He is not allowed to change his place of residence without permission, and he can’t possess any weapons. Nathan cannot leave the state of Nevada without permission.

The judge also should have ordered Nathan to stop wearing this shirt… 

Nathan— who has had several alcohol-related arrests over the years— is also barred from drinking alcohol “to excess.” (If he is tested and is found to have a 0.08 blood alcohol content or higher, it will be ruled as “proof of excess.”) He is also not allowed to use, purchase or possess illegal drugs or any prescription drugs that are not prescribed to him. Nathan will be required to submit to drug testing.

He must allow himself and his property to be searched, including by electronic surveillance and location monitoring.

Nathan is barred from associating with anyone who has been convicted of a felony, or anyone on probation or parole. He must get written permission to correspond with anyone currently in jail or prison.

“Does that mean we can’t be prison pen pals, Nate?!”

Finally, Nathan is required to follow all regular laws, pay his fines…and seek employment.

“You shall seek and maintain legal employment, or maintain a program approved by the Division of Parole and Probation and not change such employment or program without first obtaining permission,” the court order reads. “All terminations of employment or program shall be immediately reported to the Division.”

“A ‘Teen Mom’ dad getting a JOB? Is that even, like, legal?”

Nathan will go before the court again in September.
