Cameron Sutton, Ex-Lions CB, Charged with Domestic Battery, Turns Himself In
After weeks of evading law enforcement, former Detroit Lions cornerback Cameron Sutton surrenders to Florida police on a domestic violence charge.
- Cameron Sutton, previously sought for a domestic violence warrant in Florida, has turned himself in to the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office.
- Initially wanted for domestic battery by strangulation, a third-degree felony, Sutton is now formally charged with misdemeanor battery.
- Sutton, who signed a three-year, $33 million contract with the Lions in 2023, was released by the team following the issuance of the warrant.
- The former NFL player faces up to five years in prison if convicted of the original felony charge, but the current misdemeanor charge carries a maximum one-year jail sentence.
- Sutton's surrender comes after a weekslong search, with his attorney informing authorities of his intention to turn himself in nearly a week prior.
