As part of the sentence, Octave, 19, was ordered to complete an anger management/life skills course.

Octave's original 364-day sentence was then reduced to 180 days plus time-served.

The original house arrest sentence stemmed from Octave's 2016 conviction on robbery and kidnapping charges.

Octave was found guilty of violating the terms of his probation on April 26 for going to a strip club, attending a boxing match and disrupting an anger management class.
