Football Adrian Peterson Indicted - Page 59

Reckless/negligent injury to a child. Indicted.

This league may not be able to sustain too many more of these black eyes. It's a mess.

I may have misread it, but I think this new story actually took place before the switching incident.

The latest incident allegedly occurred last June, while the boy, who lives out of state, was visiting Peterson at his gated home in The Woodlands.

But no charges were ever filed. Sources confirm the mother filed a report with Child Protective Services, but the outcome of any CPS investigation is unclear.

Edit: my bad. The switching incident took place in May.

Just amazing.

Guy was sure to be a HOF HB.

Not enough to beat every defense in the league he's got to beat his kids as well...

...and while this investigation is going on why is he allowed to be around his other kids? Why are these women letting him?...

Probably AP, at least Vick came back and had a great season when he started.

AP was on his way to the HOF, now he'll probably never get there because he is a shitty human being.

#2 involved a defenseless child. Who doesn't even know what he's doing. Who poses no threat to the parent. AP is a sick bitch.

No you won't. It's maybe the only sane thing you've ever said.

One would think.

**** with a mother's child, and you can throw all the rules out of the window.

In case you didn't know the testimony that convicted Hardy.

According to Holder’s testimony in court, Hardy’s rage was first aroused that night when the speakers at a Charlotte club blasted a song by Nelly. During one of the lapses in her dating of Hardy, Holder, 24, had a brief romance with the rapper. Hearing the music of his ex-girlfriend’s former lover didn’t sit well with Hardy. He and Holder were still arguing when they returned to Hardy’s two-bedroom townhouse on Tryon Street in downtown Charlotte.

The pair was accompanied by Hardy’s childhood friend turned manager, Sammy Curtis, and his sometimes companion, Laura Iwanicki, as well as another couple, Christina Lawrence and a male friend, who retreated to a bedroom. A crowded after-party didn’t restrain Hardy. First he flung Holder onto a bed, then he threw her into a bathtub. Then he tossed her onto a futon covered with a cache of firearms. An inventory of the guns later filed with the Mecklenburg County Sheriff’s Office revealed 10 semi-automatic rifles and shotguns. (In North Carolina, permits are not required for firearms other than handguns.) According to Holder, Hardy asserted that the rifles were loaded.

Next, Hardy ripped from Holder’s body a necklace that he had gifted her. He threw the jewelry into a toilet, and when Holder attempted to fish it out, Hardy slammed the lid on her arm. He then dragged her by the hair from room to room, she said, before putting his hands around her throat. “He looked me in my eyes and he told me he was going to kill me,” Holder later testified. “I was so scared, I wanted to die. When he loosened his grip slightly, I said, ‘Just do it. Kill me.’”

In the next room, Lawrence heard the commotion. She had never met Holder before that night. Alarmed, she ran to the building’s security desk and called 911.

“What’s going on?” the dispatcher asked.

“Domestic violence,” Lawrence responded frantically. “Do you hear that bulls---? He’s beating her a-- in there. Some girl’s getting her a-- beat upstairs and I heard it. And I seen it. He is beating her a-- right the f--- now. So get here now.”

Dispatchers reported that they’d received a separate 911 call from the same address minutes earlier. Hardy had called, claiming that a woman, presumably Holder, hit him in the face. He also said that he had needed the help of Curtis — who lists on his Facebook page that he works for Hardy’s agent, Drew Rosenhaus — to help restrain Holder. “She’s hit me in the face twice,” Hardy said. “She won’t get out. We’re trying to get her out of my house.” Hardy also told the dispatcher that he had videotaped the ordeal, a claim he would later retract.

Law enforcement officials arrived and, according to the police report, “the witness [Lawrence] stated several times, ‘Greg just beat the s--- out of her; he almost broke her arm. . .’ The victim [Holder] was crying and very upset. The victim had visual signs and swelling to both arms. Both elbows had scratches and welts. Minor cuts and scrapes and large areas of bruising and swelling were visible on her back.”

Emergency room photos reveal bruises on Holder’s foot, wrist, neck, chin, face, forearm, elbow and back. Holder, however, did not give a statement that night. Later, when asked why, she would respond: “[Hardy] had told me in past if I took food out of his family’s mouth he was going to kill me.”

Now that there is another kid who got beat down by AP... doesn't the NFL have to step in and ban him for the year or something? JFC.

WTF is wrong with NFL players? It's destroying the league's image.

DEVELOPING STORY: Adrian Peterson accused of injuring another son in June

Quote:

Per KHOU-TV in Houston, the Vikings RB allegedly disciplined his child, resulting in an injury to the 4-year-old boy's head.

KHOU-TV in Houston reported Monday night that Vikings running back Adrian Peterson was accused of injuring another son in June 2013. According to the report, Peterson allegedly disciplined his son for "cussing to a sibling," resulting in an injury to the 4-year-old boy's head.

The boy's mother reportedly filed a report with Texas Child Protective Services. The results of any investigation are unclear and no charges have been filed in the case. NFL Media has not yet been able to reach the Vikings or Peterson's attorney for comment.

Peterson was indicted Friday on a charge of reckless or negligent injury to a child -- another 4-year-old son -- and faces up to two years in prison and a $10,000 fine if convicted. He flew to Texas and turned himself in early Saturday morning to the Montgomery County (Texas) Sheriff's Office and was released after posting a $15,000 bond.

The Vikings deactivated Peterson for Sunday's game against the New England Patriots, but the team announced Monday that the 29-year-old was activated and will fully practice this week. He is expected to play against the New Orleans Saints in Week 3.

Peterson's arraignment in Texas was scheduled for Wednesday but was delayed to Oct. 8 as his lawyer, Rusty Hardin, is out of the country.

This is not going to end well

Per Schefter:

Rusty Hardin, lawyer for Adrian Peterson: "The allegation of another investigation into Adrian Peterson is simply not true. The allegation is more than one year old and authorities took no action. An adult witness admittedly insists Adrian did nothing inappropriate with his son."

There is no way he plays this week. The NFL is surely smarter than that move.

If you beat your kids until they bleed and leave scars on their face, you shouldn't be allowed to keep making millions of $'s. When convicted, thats it. Finished in the league.
