90 Day Fiancé: Ben Rathbun Reportedly Fired From Job Following Arrest

screenrant.com:

90 Day Fiancé cast member Ben Rathbun has reportedly been fired from his place of work amidst news of his arrest for a probation violation. Michigan man Ben is the star of the ongoing 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days season 5 with Peru woman Mahogany Roca, who’s 30 years younger than him. Ben and Mahogany never spoke on video calls, and all her photos on Instagram were heavily filtered. But Mahogany’s friend request to Ben led to them chatting for three months straight, after which he thought it was God’s plan for them to get married. While fans watched Mahogany playing games with Ben on the show, they also saw his mugshot and wondered what happened.

Even though Ben and Mahogany arrived fashionably late to 90 Day Fiancé, fans got a creepy vibe from him. Ben’s interest in a 22-year-old woman, the same age as his daughter, on TV didn’t help, and not many were surprised when the news of his arrest surfaced online. On March 15, it was reported that Ben was arrested in a bust related to an alleged OUI, which means operating while under the influence of alcohol, and driving with a suspended license back in 2020. He was sentenced to 18 months of probation in January 2021. Ben had a probation violation hearing in February, which he didn’t show up for. This led to a judge issuing a bench warrant, after which he was eventually booked.

It seems Ben has now been sentenced to 15 days of community service and 24 months of probation. He was also ordered to spend two days in jail, but the court credited him with the time Ben served after his arrest. While he may have received a relatively light sentence, his workplace hasn’t been too generous with him.
