MOE'S LAWYER PROVES THAT HE'S AS SMART AS CURLY
One day after the lawyer for former Vikings running back Moe Williams declared that "[o]nly an imbecile could lose this case," the lawyer proved himself worthy of that moniker after a jury found Williams guilty of disorderly conduct.
Williams was cleared of two other misdemeanors -- indecent conduct and lewd or lascivious behavior. Though there are no reports regarding Williams' sentence, we suspect that he will serve little if any jail time, and that he will be placed on probation and required to perform community service.
The charges stemmed from the October 2005 Love Boat fiasco. Vikings tackle Bryant McKinnie and cornerback Fred Smoot have not yet been tried. A judge recently dismissed misdemeanor charges against former Vikings quarterback Daunte Culpepper.
It has been reported that the prosecutor had not decided whether to re-file the charges against Culpepper. It's possible that the partial victory in the trial against Williams could be enough to prompt another run at the guy who was traded to Miami for a second-round pick in March.
During the trial, defense lawyer Joe Friedberg said that Williams, who played with both the Vikings and Ravens, has retired from the NFL. Based on Friedberg's skills in predicting the outcome of jury trials, don't be surprised if Williams signs with a new team tomorrow.
