Sadly...Stallworth and the family of his victim settled in a plea deal. They got money, he got barely any jail time.
I loved Dante when he was a Patriot, but this was horrible. The fact that the family was cool with money, must either mean that they feel he was truly sorry, and deserved no jail time, or they though that duckets would heal the wound of losing a family member.
If Lance Armstrong didn't want to press charges.....he didn't have to. I saw an interesting "Intervention" on A&E about a guy who was on the Postal team with Lance, his first day on it he made fun of armstrong, and the next day was kicked off the squad. His life spiraled out of control to the point where he lives in an ally now, and husltes for crack. Armstrong...by most people's accounts is a coksucker. I applaud the man for his accomplishments, and his bringing about the LIVESTRONG campaign....but his irrational actions at times makes me wonder what the F is really going on in this dudes head???

Juice?
after she stood by him during his cancer, Lance dumped his wife to run off with sheryl crow..........kind of sums it up
According to PFT, the guy was just walking across the street with no crosswalk and it wasn't a side street. Dante messed up by being drunk but I think the reason for the sentence being light is they were going to have a tough time proving who's fault it was given that the guy was jaywalking across a 4 or so lane road.
Discrepancy in sentencing happens all the time, different laws, different judges and different states.. if you think this is bad, 30 years ago I worked in a court that had a heavy portuguese concentration.
The kids from the affluent areas would come in with their folks all dressed, the kids in suits with their big atty's.. they would do things like shoot off guns, get drunk and wreck cars and homes.. the judge will give them all their rights and talk real nice and order all kinds of services... they never did any time.
The Portuguese kids would come in with their mothers dressed with their mantilla's on and black dresses, most could not speak english. The kids looked normal, mostly charged with property violations, the judge did not even give them an attorney or read them their rights.. he would say did you do it, they would invariably say yes and the would just go away.
There is also a tremendous discrepancy between rich and poor.

I'm not justifying what Stallworth did but I think it's been a bit mislabeled in the football world. I live in South Florida and am familiar with where it happened. I think it had WAY more to do with Donte driving a RR (practically a tank) than him being "intoxicated". If Donte was driving a Honda we're talking a broken leg and this might not even be news.
Anyways, down here you could see the progression clearly. The story went from Stallworth was involved in a tragic accident to drunken attempted man slaughter...

who cares.........your opinions are meaningless.......go pollute some other thread
In NH we had a convicted DWI woman who killed two juveniles get a year's sentence. Shortly thereafter a guy who whipped his neighbor's cat to death received a 7-year sentence.
Harm an animal or steal Bo Didley's banjo and you'll do hard time. But what of those thumps in the night while one is slooshed? Community service.
