Rittman was arrested after a six-hour standoff with Tallahassee police, barricaded inside an apartment at the University Green Condos off Corvallis Avenue.
Prosecutors alleged Rittman arrived at the complex on Oct. 3, 2021, to harass a former girlfriend. He climbed into the home and made threats towards the woman. She escaped the home before the standoff began.
The trial lasted two days in Leon County court, according to the State Attorney’s Office. A sentencing date had not yet been set.
