Jersey Shore’s Ronnie was indicted yesterday by an Ocean County, New Jersey grand jury on assault. Way back when (i.e. September of 2009), Ronnie was acting the fool in a Jersey bar and ended up hitting Stephen Izzo.

Stephen Izzo promptly got his tighty’s in a twist and sued Ronnie, MTV and the Jersey Shore’s producers.

So what’s next for Ronnie Ortiz?

Well, if all goes as Izzo has planned he could serve up to 5 years in state prison.

What do you think? Does Ronnie deserve to be behind bars?
