Camacho released from jail, still facing drug charges

According to Sports Illustrated, former Superfeatherweight, Lightweight and Jr. Welterweight champion, Hector "Macho" Camacho has been released from jail on his own recognizance and sentenced to time served after 5 months.   After entering a guilty plea for a burglary charge, the troubled Camacho now awaits a November 5th trial on drug charges.  The burglary incident was famed after Camacho allegedly urinated on a computer inside the store he was allegedly robbing.   Camacho was accused of stealing 7 laptops and more than $5,000.  Camacho's full sentence was 7 years.   If the drug charges are considered a violation of probation he might have to serve the entire sentence.Â
