The new arrest comes at a bad time because Conor McGregor was arrested recently and had  just completed his sentence in the dolly attack case. He had to complete 5 days of community service at churches in Brooklyn and undergo an anger management class.

If Conor is found guilty in the phone smashing case, Florida will take Conor’s previous arrests into consideration during sentencing.
