Chad Johnson is behind bars yet again. Late last week, we told you about how the Broward County Sheriff's Office had put out an arrest warrant for Johnson because he had allegedly violated the probation he received after he was involved in a domestic dispute with his ex-wife Evelyn Lozada in August 2012. And earlier today, a judge in the case found that Johnson had violated his probation by failing to meet with his probation officer on two different occasions and failing to provide proof of enrollment in a domestic violence education class.

As a result, Johnson was arrested this morning, thrown in jail, and ordered to post a $1,000 bond in order to be set free. He was also ordered to make another appearance in court on June 3 to see what will happen to him next. Stay tuned for further developments in the case.
