P Matt Araiza Released by Bills (8/27) after being accused of rape with an underage girl

[jetstream23]

Ugh.

 

Updated: Now released by Buffalo

 

[Greenseed4]

Nope, not touching this one. 

[Obrien2Toon]

ESPN pumped this guy up all pre draft 

and then he ended up being like the third punter taken 

wonder if the teams knew 

[thebuzzardman]

Mims for....nm. 

[Spoot-Face]

If convicted, I have only two words...

 

 

 

Firing squad

[sirlancemehlot]

If I've learned anything from these cases its this: wait for the details.

If this is a civil case, it means probable cause for arrest was not found in a criminal investigation.  

Beyond that, wait and see.

[jbt]

so what is that like a 13 game suspension if true?

 

[slimjasi]

yikes

[JetsFanatic]

They’re accused. Let’s wait and see the facts before judging.

You forgot the 230 million guaranteed contract.

There's a criminal case pending whether to submit to a grand jury.

I know nothing except this is just terribly sad. Not sure what the need was to post this here.

College football is pretty pretty dirty.

Lock the thread before I have to hunt someone down and kill them for blaming the girl 

[Fantasy Island]

Horrible news.

Glad Buffalo’s punter got claimed by another team that they got rid of for Ariza.

What a disgusting accusation, and SD state waited 7 months to investigate


When most people ask “ why didn’t you report it to the police” most women don’t because when they do they’re treated as liars as opposed to victims. The school didn’t even care enough to investigate until damn near a year later, when she reported it a day after it happened.

He’s an NFL player and this seems like significant news.  What’s wrong with sharing the news? I think there was some Deshaun Watson news discussed here recently.

Maybe I misunderstood, but the school is claiming they were told not to do anything by the police since she had reported it to them. In these situations, the police tend not to want private parties to be conducting their own investigation as well. 

Although, many college do drag their feet on these investigations especially with high profile athletes.

Lock the thread before someone says guilty before any evidence is presented

Yes and every time it ended badly. So will this,

Only for the Bills & this guy if proven guilty

I was referring to the thread. But yeah, that too.

This is blowing up right now.  The Bills apparently knew about it before they cut Haack.

They tweeted that they conducted a 'thorough investigation'.  That's going to look really bad by tomorrow as the anecdotal story is piling up to look really bad.  Even if just statutory rape, it's a felony and I saw a tweet (blue check) that he admitted it on a call with her recorded by the police.  But what I'm seeing on Twitter (admittedly not verified) makes it look like it's going to be a lot worse than that.

The only fair way to handle this is to suspend Josh Allen indefinitely

Yup. Per the ESPN article the police were in on the call, he admitted to having sex with her, then may have gotten the sense she was pushing him to admit things and he clammed up.

No matter what the truth it’s not a good look for the NFL. At best the three college men had a consensual orgy with a high school student. 
 

At worst….
 

The NFL does not want this and does not need this. Given the present electrically charged environment out there the woman is to be believed. It has become obvious that he did have sex with her (along with his buddies) - this will not end well unless she fabricated the whole story which is not the case. 

[oatmeal]

Based of the many Watson threads and outraged JN posters we are now 30+ replies in and no ripping this pedo a new a** hole? 

[Bronx]

Class act by these assholes:

San Diego State has faced scrutiny after a recent Los Angeles Times report found the school did not properly alert the campus community of the allegations, instead waiting seven months.

Thorough investigation = “Did you do it?” “Nah.” “Okay.”
