but it was a minor....the rules are different on that

Yeah, I'd figure a minor would be a "protected class."

Not in Florida, unless you have a link. It's not a felony unless he has a previous misdemeanor battery conviction or the defendent is shown to have intended to cause serious bodily injury. A single puch in the face isn't going to get charged unless it was a little kid.

 

Also, he was released on bond.

Sorry, I don't care how good he may be. If the NFL wants to clean things up, he needs to go. How are the players suppossed to act accordingly when coaches can't?

 

He should be Fired ASAP.

Not to sound old but anyone else think it's strange that the police posted the details of the charge on Facebook of all places?

Yes, I found that odd. Especially the inclusion of the kid's allegations.,,,

So punching someone over 65 is a felony but punching someone under 18 isn't? Yeah, that makes sense.

Because we only want to take the story of one side, right?

ASAP? Shouldn't they find out what happened first?

Actually I'm thinking of starting a GoFundMe campaign and try to raise a million dollars for the victims in this. Those three poor innocent teenagers whose lives have been shattered and futures totally ruined by this heinous crime and who cannot trust any adult anymore.

Fire him this second, before the facts are out, dammit!! And while we're at it, let's cut EJ this second, too, before camp starts, because that's just what a professional organization would do.

 

If you really are in the know, I hope it's not very high up. Sheesh.

It's Florida. Of course it makes sense given the pandering politicians and retirees they cater to.

 

I own a second home in central FL and it always creeps me out to see how entitled a large swath of the 65-plus croud is. The only group with more clout and legislative backing is the medical lobby...

Yeah! And can we finally cut Dareus?

A lot of the police and fire departments have facebook pages now a days in which they post details of where they are being called to and for what reason. I don't know what the end game of doing this is but I guess it is a modern version of the police beat.
