Tennessee Guard Ruby Whitehorn Pleads Guilty to 2 Misdemeanors and Is Granted Judicial Diversion

Ruby Whitehorn accepted a plea deal for misdemeanor vandalism and trespassing, avoiding felony convictions through judicial diversion with probation and anger management conditions.

  • Lady Vols guard Ruby Whitehorn pleaded guilty to two misdemeanors on September 5 related to an August 8 altercation in North Knox County.
  • The charges, initially aggravated burglary and domestic assault felonies, were downgraded as part of a judicial diversion after a fight involving Whitehorn and another woman.
  • Investigators found that Whitehorn kicked in both the front and bedroom doors during the dispute, with no visible injuries reported to either party involved.
  • Whitehorn, a 21-year-old guard who transferred from Clemson before the 2024-25 season, must complete an 11-month probation including anger management and no further assaultive behavior.
  • If Whitehorn fulfills probation terms, her record will be expunged, and her attorney said she looks forward to focusing on athletics and academics at Tennessee.
