Court documents show Britt Reid allegedly violated parole

Britt Reid, son of Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid, apparently is too much of a scourge to understand the advantage of a big break.

Kansascity.com reports court documents show Britt Reid violated the terms of his parole by driving his mom’s car with children in it.

The issue — and it is a hot-button one — is Britt Reid is on probation and is forbidden from driving a vehicle without a breathalyzer in it.

Per the report:

The alleged violation was mentioned in an affidavit filed earlier this month in Reid’s Johnson County divorce case. It was among examples Kristen Reid’s attorney filed attempting to show Johnson County District Judge Jason Billam had favored and been lax with Britt Reid in the divorce proceedings because of his connections to the Kansas City Chiefs.

Britt Reid, 39, pleaded guilty to driving while intoxicated and causing a crash that severely injured a 5-year-old girl in 2021. He was sentenced to three years in prison.

His sentence was commuted by Missouri Gov. Mike Parson in March, a decision that was heavily questioned and criticized.

Per the Star:

John Picerno, a Kansas City defense attorney not involved in this case, said he would advise clients in Reid’s position to assume there is zero tolerance for misbehavior and to “be a Boy Scout,” especially in a high profile case.

Generally, Picerno said, those who violate their parole terms are given sanctions like more classes or additional sobriety checks. After multiple violations, however, it’s more likely that parole could be revoked.
