Two former Rutgers footballers who broke into homes three years ago and robbed people for drugs and cash, sometimes at gunpoint, are heading to prison for at least a decade.
Tejay Johnson, 26, of Egg Harbor Township, gave an unbroken, nearly seven-minute apology to his victims and family, saying he made a "complete fool" of himself and damaged his family name.
The former Scarlett Knight told Judge Dennis Nieves Friday morning that after football was taken from him, he turned to codeine and marijuana.
Johnson, who cut a deal earlier this year while facing decades in prison, was given three 12-year prison terms for each of the three armed robberies.
