Twitter: Details from Lewis's court appearance

[sbark]

One of them contained Lucky Whitehead's dog

and the ransom money in the other.........no wonder she said it hurt when they hit her

It was an assault pillow.... and they need to be banned. If we can save just one person by banning them, it will be worth the struggle.

NRA has lobbied for years to keep these things legal. It's disgusting.

Seems like a ridiculous waste of tax dollars to prosecute this case. It's a classic he said/she said scenario. The DA needs to be fired.

 

[gimmesix]

She displayed no visible injuries to the police...... not even DNA from the drool on the pillow

There do not have to be visible injuries for it to be domestic violence. Granted, it becomes harder to prove.

I'm all for our players not committing or being convicted of crimes, but even though we can joke about it being a pillow fight, I'm not going to dismiss the possibility that there was domestic violence involved. If he did drag her around, if he did grab her around the throat because she woke him and he got mad ... well, he deserves whatever he gets and I hope he learns from it.

Obviously, I hope that there is nothing to it, but since I wasn't there, I can't say he did or didn't do what he's being accused of doing.

Yeah. Ridiculously wasteful to allow people basic rights to have complaints heard by a jury.

We should repeal the 6th Amendment.

The amendment is the worst. The worst.

High profile defendant accused of a media focused crime, no way the DA passes on it.

I think dragging her across the floor and forcefully putting his hands around her neck would be more than a pillow fight. I'm not saying it is domestic violence, but I don't want to downplay the possibility that it is either.

If he knocked her down and choked her across the floor and she showed no bruising or the like then it's a miracle

 

[Plumfool]

I once saw a DV charge based on a spit ball. Not joking.

Had to make a case because the boyfriend threw A French fry. One French fry.

 

[JoeKing]

Ok...so what role did Elliott and Mike Irvin play in this crime!! They must have been involved somehow!

Elliot was dancing with the girlfriend until 1am, meanwhile Mike Irvin snuck in the house while Lewis was sleeping and turned on the lights.

 

[Dundalis]

It did say he dragged her across the floor.

I drag my missus across the floor after a pillow fight all the time! I'm grateful I read this, so I can stop before she ends up dead.

 

[adbutcher]

He on trial for a pillow fight?

Sham justice... sickening.

 

[cowboy_ron]

He on trial for a pillow fight?

lol, yea, those "my pillows" are deadly.

 

[Biggems]

Was it a My Pillow.......maybe he was trying to give her what he was having when she came home.....the best night's sleep in the whole wide world.....

 

[Yakuza Rich]

I'm a proud member of the NPA and support your right to carry........on..... and on and on......

How can you justify the selling and use of fully automatic and semi-automatic pillows?

You disgust me.

[Chuck 54]

I hope this is dismissed and he's found innocent of charges, meaning he said/she said....no witnesses, no pictures of her bruised neck by his fingers.

I can tell you if a man controlled my daughter by choking her with hands on throat, I'd be going Sonny Corleon on his butt or hiring some guys. I hope none of that is true.

 

[jday]

Because there was a pillow involved.

You cannot let that kind of thing slide.

Assault with a Cuddly Weapon is no laughing matter...

 

[Longboysfan]

What a brute!! Jail is not good enough..he must be sent to Cleveland!

The ultimate punishment.

 

[xvendettax914]

Wonder how many sports "insiders" and networks will discuss and condemn this nonsense.

If you see something you consider suspect, please use the Report feature. It's under every post, and I can assure you, we take the reports seriously.

Though, I don't think there's anything inherently racist in saying you're more likely to get into trouble at a hip hop club than a jazz club. It's a generalization, sure, and maybe not an accurate one, but it's not inherently racist.

Heck, more likely people get into trouble at a Country and Western bar.........
But what is really funny...at a Karaoke bar, when the KJ plays some dance music on a hip hop song, and watching the older C&W customers trying to Line Dance to it.....
