Overview

• Weston Cage was sentenced to a two-year mental health diversion program after being charged with felony assault for attacking his mother, Christina Fulton, and a friend during a mental health crisis in April 2024.
• The judge determined that Cage’s mental health condition was a significant factor in the incident and ruled that treatment was more appropriate than incarceration.
• Christina Fulton supported the rehabilitative approach but criticized Weston for showing no remorse or accountability for the attack, which she described in graphic detail during her victim impact statement.
• Weston’s lawyer stated that he has been making significant progress in his mental health treatment, is sober, and is preparing for marriage, with a progress report scheduled for July 2025.
• If Weston completes the diversion program and avoids further legal trouble, the charges could be dismissed in April 2027, reflecting a broader trend toward mental health-focused legal resolutions.
