An Irvington cage fighter accused of inciting a brawl at an Auburn University fraternity house by yelling "Roll Tide" admitted Wednesday to bribing a retarded man to claim responsibility for injuries suffered by the brothers in the melee.
Joey Barrett Jr., 25, pleaded guilty in Lee County Circuit Court to two felony charges.
He was sentenced to 18 months in jail and five years probation after pleading guilty to first-degree assault, as well as one year, to run concurrently with the first penalty, for bribing a witness. The plea agreement, according to Lee County District Attorney Nick Abbett, allows Barrett to serve his time in Mobile County Metro Jail.

The fight that landed Barrett Jr. in jail began in font of the Phi Kappa Tau fraternity house on the eve of the 2005 Alabama-Auburn game. It ended with one of the brothers being sent to the hospital with a collapsed lung.

Abbett said investigation into the case continued after the trial, eventually revealing that Barrett had offered Holtz a car in exchange for taking the heat on the assault charges.
