Overview

• Kyle Snyder, a decorated Olympic and NCAA wrestling champion, pleaded guilty to a reduced misdemeanor charge of disorderly conduct on May 19.
• The charge stems from a May 9 arrest during a Columbus Police Department prostitution sting, where Snyder responded to an undercover escort ad and paid $160 to an officer posing as a sex worker.
• As part of his plea agreement, Snyder was fined $250, forfeited the $160 payment, and completed a one-day diversion program known as The John School for first-time offenders.
• Judge Cynthia Ebner ruled that Snyder's record will not be sealed for two years, ensuring public access to the case during that period.
• Snyder, who recently signed with Hulk Hogan's Real American Freestyle wrestling league, stated he has learned from the experience and plans to make better decisions moving forward.
