The charge, a third-degree DWI or more, specifies, “After two DWI convictions, a third DWI offense (habitual DWI) is a Third-Degree Felony. The maximum fine is $10,000.00, and the maximum prison sentence is 10 years in a Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) penitentiary.”

“A conviction for a third DWI will result in a minimum prison sentence of two years and a maximum of ten years in prison (not a county jail). Even if you are granted probation, you will have to serve at least ten days in jail as part of a plea agreement. This usually cannot be waived,” it further states.
According to a filing, Mahomes has officially been charged with a third-degree felony and awaits a trial.
Prior to his arrest in 2024, Mahomes was arrested back in 2018 for a second driving while intoxicated, according to jail records. He served a 40-day sentence on weekends from February 2019 to February 2020.
Due to his multiple arrests, Mahomes has several mugshots in the system.
