A defendant pleaded guilty to unlawful entry, bail violation and attempted threats to do bodily harm on June 16. 

As part of the plea agreement, Teela Lott’s charges for simple assault and possession of an open container of alcohol were dismissed. 

DC Superior Court Judge John McCabe sentenced Lott, 35, to nearly four months at the DC Jail. She has been held since March 3.

Judge McCabe also ordered Lott to pay $150 towards the Victims of Violent Crime Fund. 

Judge McCabe deemed it unnecessary to put Lott on probation. He said it will be easier for Lott to adjust with fewer people to report to.

Lott has had a total of 25 cases before the court, 12 of which have occurred within the past two years. Much of her criminal history has stemmed from use of PCP, a hallucinatory drug, according to DC Courts.
