3:40 am!  Just why?  Why is a player out that late in season?

[RiotAct]

Ugh… dumb decision by him to drive impaired and obviously the end result was just about the worst that you could ask for. Guessing this pretty much puts the kibosh on his career?

Good to know there is a TSW’er working in an ER at a Vegas hospital.  👍

 

A report came out. Maybe you should try reading if you are capable.

It amazes me that these athletes risk it all and not just call an Uber.

If true, this could be a career ender.  Talk about litigation.

Pretty misleading thread title.  Really just internet trash

 

Unfortunately the "misleading" part appears to be the "potentially"

Ruggs is known to own the green Vette observed at the scene and it's being confirmed he will be charged with DUI and possibly more.

It would at the very least pause it while he's in jail.

Not so fast. Its vegas, good attorneys, would not be surprised if he finds a way out of this. Would not be the first. We have seen murderers and rapists barely miss time.

Ruggs' attorney, David Chesnoff, tells TMZ Sports, "On behalf of our client Henry Ruggs III we are conducting our own investigation as of this writing and ask everyone to reserve judgment until all the facts are gathered.

David Chesnoff, gotta be the same guy, he is the go to lawyer in Las Vegas when you are in trouble, he must bill $2k/hour, big DUI lawyer.  He was also involved in with that lunatic from Houston Robert Durst from where I know of him.

[Gugny]

10:53 AM PT -- Cops tells us Ruggs was behind the wheel, driving his Chevrolet Corvette, when he crashed into a Toyota Rav4 around 3:39 AM. The Toyota caught on fire ... and first responders located a deceased person in the SUV.

 

Ruggs was transported to a local hospital for treatment.

 

Cops tell us the NFL star showed "signs of impairment" at the scene ... and they will be charging him with DUI resulting in death.

If he stayed on scene - how 'bout trying to get the other drive OUT??  Boy o boy, this is gonna get really rough for this kid - no matter how it turns out.  Let alone the friends and family of the driver who died.  Just awful!

If convicted, it's a 2-20 year prison sentence.

How sad for the family who lost someone. Kid has the whole world at his fingertips and loses everything making the dumbest decision possible. All that money and can’t call an Uber. Just sad. 

[Hebert19]

Ooof.  Not good.
