Anthony Smith, former Raiders 1st rounder, convicted of 3 murders
http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nfl-sh...222311921.html
Former Los Angeles and Oakland Raiders defensive end Anthony Smith was accused of murdering four men over the course of a decade, and he was convicted Thursday for three of those killings. Smith, the Raiders' first-round pick (11th overall) in 1990, was convicted by a jury in Lancaster, Calif. of shooting and killing Kevin and Ricky Nettles in 1999, and stabbing Dennis Henderson to death in 2001, according to ABC 7 in Los Angeles and the Los Angeles Daily News. Smith was also accused of being responsible for the 2008 murder of Maurilio Ponce, but jurors deadlocked on that count and a mistrial for that shooting death was declared, ABC 7 said. Jurors also found true special circumstance allegations of multiple murders and torture, ABC 7 said. Prosectutors will not be seeking the death penalty, however. Sentencing is set for Dec. 21, and there will be a hearing to see if Smith will be re-tried for the fourth murder charge. According to ABC 7, the Nettles brothers — who were murdered less than two years after Smith's final NFL game — were found with their heads wrapped in duct tape. According to testimony at the preliminary hearing, Ricky Nettles' stomach was branded with "a burn in the shape of a clothing iron." Smith played seven seasons for the Raiders, from 1991-97. He had 57.5 sacks in his NFL career. |

It's not the Raiders that are killing themselves in the parking lot of their stadium or causing trouble at the indoor waterpark in KC...

Maybe he's in a gang. If you're in a gang, Oakland's post -apocalyptic look and feel is probably quite desirable.

What do you mean, "maybe"?

He was actually a pretty decent pass rusher for them.
Better pick than Percy Snow
