AROUND THE NATION / Thompson Stalker Enters Plea

Former Georgetown player Kevin Millen pleaded guilty in Washington to stalking former coach John Thompson.

Millen, who averaged two points in 121 games at Georgetown, also pleaded guilty to unlawful entry on the Georgetown campus, in an agreement between prosecutors and defense attorneys.

D.C. Superior Court Judge Anita Josey-Herring could sentence Millen to up to 18 months in jail, but attorneys in the case have agreed to recommend probation.

Under the plea agreement, Millen is barred from contacting Georgetown University, or its current or former staff during the length of his probation. He must also undergo whatever counseling is mandated. The agreement also bars Millen from returning to the District of Columbia area.
