In Massachusetts, unlike most states where a misdemeanor might carry a maximum of one year in jail, the penalty can be as severe as two and a half years. However, whether Lucic will face jail time depends on the court's ruling if he is found guilty.

The incident that led to these charges involved Lucic's wife, who called 9-1-1 early Saturday morning, claiming that Lucic had attacked and choked her.
