All charges dropped vs Lucky Whitehead, warrant rescinded, cops had wrong guy

[TheMarathonContinues]

Wow......the incompetence of this country's police and judicial system strikes again....lost his job and was vilified worldwide and ridiculed for something he didn't do. Smh.

I can't wait to see Garrett next press conference

I doubt you will get what you are hoping for.

They were pretty emphatic it was based on all of his behaviors. This last thing, on top of dog napping, being late for practices. They wanted an excuse and took this one. Garrett can simply go back to what they have been consistent since yesterday about it.

 

[coogrfan]

Garrett is a clown.

Maybe, but in fairness we don't know how many times Whitehead lied to Garrett in the past.

 

[Setackin]

He's just going to say what they said yesterday: that it was an accumulation of things that led to Lucky's release and they wish him the best.

Yea but them reporters are going to be all over this lol his face is going to be sooo red lol

 

[Teague31]

Why not? He was cut as a direct result of the police departments incompetence.

Cops and prosecutors have immunity. And you can't sue the government for slander. The only hope he would have is if he could prove the cops KNEW they had the wrong guy and put out the warrant anyhow.

How was the dog napping his fault?

 

[Teague31]

Dude had zero chance to make the 53. Move on, nothing to see here

 

[Alexander]

It's a weird situation, I agree, but I am not going to blame the team.

Given his history, they had enough. They just couldn't pull if off without stumbling over their own feet.

 

[Vintage]

So wait.... Dude was innocent and he was the example set forth by the team?

Cowboys gonna Cowboy.

But at least he is innocent. Cowboys..... Winning when it matters the most. In the court room.

Really!?! That's kinda BS... This dude just got screw sole because of them...

 

[stiletto]

LOL. They can't even release a guy properly. With that being said, Lucky was probably on thin ice anyways and what kind of friend does he have to do that? Friends of a feather...

Wilson was actually seen by multiple people committing his crime-- yet he still remains on the team and with a much worse offense. The front office is clueless about standards and player accountability, at least to me...

All this does is now make the Cowboys look stupid. Their plan backfired but it was a stupid plan. Cuting him even if he was guilty would have had no effect because like k keep saying everyone knew he was never making this team. So know that he turns out innocent now they look like fools. Ugh there are no winners in this at all now. More distractions now.

 

[CyberB0b]

No such signature would apply here. Getting fired based on false accusation isn't washed away by any contract.

And now we get a lawsuit. Ain't this grand.

Jerry will be writing a BIG check to Mr. Whitehead to settle this out of court.

You're just making stuff up. There will be no lawsuit, because there is a union involved.

 

[Nirvana]

on radio they said it was not only Lucky's name given to the cops, but also his social security number. Combine that with the kidnapped dog circus and you have to question Lucky's associations.... Bottom line, this may be lucky for Lucky, he can catch on with another team with this incident behind him.

 

[Alexander]

How was the dog napping his fault?

From my understanding it was pulled off by people in his circle of friends and acquaintances, so he has some indirect responsibility if that is the case.

He is also the one who went public with it and made it a big deal all over Instagram or whatever. He could have quietly coped with it.

 

[Iron_Man]

Soup opera writers can't beat this cowboys offseason.

 

[Alexander]

Actually, blame TMZ for the story, social media for blowing it up too.

Good job of explaining what I was just trying to.

 

[Sydla]

He wasn't cut for being arrested. He was cut for not informing the team and causing the team even more embarassment after the dognapping or whatever.

He may or may not be brought back, but it wont be anytime soon.

They still look like a monkey humping a football.

 

[ALBIT]

In the end Lucky Whitehead will have zero reference with this team this year. It will blow away and will be a none issue. Just next time you want to be tough and prove a point do with someone who the whole planet was not making this team. That's all in saying
