Man this is crazy. I think Allred could handle it in a better manner though, by announcing it beforehand it looks like she's trying to drum up publicity. If it really was all about the victim she should've just come out and announced it.

ftfy

It was a bench trial, not a trial by peers. The thing about judges making these types of judgements, none of them want to be known as the guy who let's off some woman beater in case he goes and kills her after he's let go. I've sit in court and watched a judge let go a woman in a assault with another woman (and this woman had serious proof of an assault), and turn around and drop the guilty verdict on the next case where there really was no evidence. The difference is, one involved a man, the other a woman. I'm not saying that's the case here because I don't know the details, it's just saying I don't fully trust judgements made in these cases.

We've had situations in NC where judges were lenient on some DV cases and the man goes back and kills the wife. The judge took heat as well as the district attorney. Now, the DA won't even drop a DV case without charging the woman for filing a false report. Truthfully, Hardy should have asked for a trial by peers from the get go.


I agree though. He should be deactivated until his name is(or if) cleared in a trial by jury, since he's been found guilty in the first round.

Not trying to derail a thread, but former chief of police, for Baltimore City and the state of Maryland, Ed Norris recently said if you are innocent go with a judge trial if you are guilty always go with a jury.

Vikings: We are going too wait for the legal process to resolve itself.

Sponsors: Okay, so will we. If he's cleared, you can have our money. Until were convinced he's cleared, you can't have our money.

Vikings: Oh, well, when we said we were going to wait, we meant what you said. Please continue to give us money.

Pretty much. Gotta admire the integrity.

I think the NFL has always had a problem similar to this, it is just under a microscope because of Ray Rice and how technology has made it possible to see these incidents. I of course can't forget Social Media.

I have not heard anyone mention it, but maybe someone has, but I wonder the % of these violent incidents involves alcohol? I bet most if not all do. Alcohol the legal drug that kills more people than all drugs combined. Maybe these player need to not drink to excess?

surprised Florio hasnt written an article on PFT blaming the Skins name on the rise of domestic violence and child abuse issues.

Tell ya, kinda funny how that issue goes away when games start being played and real crimes start occuring.

Okay someone get me up to speed on this. Is she representing somebody who is coming forward with a claim, was she abused herself, or is she addressing the league policy in general? I guess I could go to the conference myself but apparently its minutes away right.

Why dont you go on over there and represent. If there is a Q&A just have you question ready, the 3rd one.
