Former Michigan football coach Sherrone Moore will be arraigned in court Friday on stalking and home invasion charges.
This happened just days after the shocking news of his firing from the Wolverines program over allegations that he had an inappropriate relationship with a staff member.
According to prosecutors, he faces charges of home invasion in the third degree, stalking and breaking and entering or entering without breaking.
The judge has agreed to a $25,000 cash surety bond, continuation of mental health treatment and a GPS tether for Moore, making it clear that any contact with the alleged victim would be a violation of the terms of his bail.
