There are a couple of issues here. First, there is the fact, as stated in the article, that Rapoport went to the police and got this information himself. I realize he may have been verifying something he got from a source, but he did not make that clear. This is just one of those "unnamed source" deals.
Second, the incidents reported don't amount to much, at least not since the domestic situation involving Bryant's mother. I work with a law enforcement agency and deal with the Texas Criminal Code, and can explain that these are not exactly the serious issues that Rapoport implies.
A sleeping baby getting locked in a car is often not a criminal issue, but more one where citizens are appealing to the police for help. It happens at times, and if this was just accidental, where the doors were locked with the keys inside the car, then this is not something to be concerned about. It probably was not a situation that can be laid at Bryant's feet in any case.
Harassment is a unique thing in the Criminal Code. The term harassment is only applicable to certain acts, including telephone or other electronic communication that is not desired by the recipient, and making threats that would cause a reasonable person to feel they were in imminent danger of bodily harm. It is usually filed at the address of the
victim. Although not definitive, the fact this call was made indicates someone at the residence felt they were being harassed, and the vast majority of such complaints are against someone outside the residence. This hardly seems like something the team could hold against Bryant.
A robbery call at that address likewise indicates that the victim is likely a resident. If Rapoport is accurate in his reporting, then this would be a case of someone forcibly taking something from someone else, as opposed to simple theft. Again, that hardly seems a scenario where Bryant would be the actor. More likely, someone else from outside the home would be involved. If someone is trying to steal something from Bryant or another resident at his home, that is not a situation that the team would likely be able to hold against him.
There are also other reports that one of the calls involved a fire. That hardly needs to be addressed in light of the implications in the report.
