Cristal Taylor has been sentenced to five years in jail for violating her probation in a 12-year-old forgery and theft case.

Taylor, 38, is the former fiancee of Mavericks forward Dirk Nowitzki.

She failed to check in with her probation officer and was arrested twice in Texas for misdemeanors in 2000.

Taylor was arrested at Nowitzki's home on May 6 and claims that she is carrying the former MVP's child.
