Chiefs player charged with domestic violence

By BRAD COOPER The Kansas City Star

A defensive lineman for the Kansas City Chiefs was arrested early today and charged with domestic battery for an alleged physical altercation with his estranged wife, authorities said.

Lional Dalton, 30, is accused of grabbing his estranged wife by the hair and pulling her down, said Johnson County District Attorney Paul Morrison. He was released from jail on a $2,500 bond. Dalton is barred from contacting his estranged wife for 72 hours. He’s scheduled in court next week.

The charge Dalton is facing is a class B misdemeanor. He faces up to six month in prison and a $1,000 fine if convicted.

Dalton’s attorney, Kevin E.J. Regan, said his client plans to plead not guilty. Regan declined comment on the facts of the case. He said he would investigate the matter with “due diligence” and handle it in the appropriate manner.

Dalton’s estranged wife was in town from Florida for the holiday when the incident was reported, Morrison said.

Dalton, who signed a two-year contract as a free agent with the Chiefs last year, was arrested at his Stilwell residence about 1:40 a.m. today, according to Johnson County jail records

Yeah. Heh heh. Right. That's an awfully myopic viewpoint.

Eh, speculation. You're a fan of the constitution, right?

I could probably get my husband thrown in jail if he even yelled at me a little too loud.

Actually I truly find myself viewing everything under the light of guilty until innocence is proven. That is my background. One judge was actually shocked I felt that way but disqualified me for jury duty after I convinced him. It is just my background and experience working with the police and having them as relatives. The criminals already have the advantage that all a defender has to do is create reasonable doubt.

Wrong. The man is pretty much always going straight to jail if a complaint is filed, regardless of the lack of physical evidence.

You may indeed be correct, society and everything have changed so much since the 70s when I worked computers for the Police Department and all my law enforcement relatives retired by the early 90s. I was speaking based on my experience and that is admittedly out of date.

This stuff is always near impossible to speak intelligently about unless you were there. I don't know what happened. Were there witnesses? What are there stories?.. legal proof?.. easy money?.. bad temper?.. a-hole woman beater?.. dejected ex wantin' a piece o' da' bank?..

My experiences are from 1997. They'll haul you away for looking at your significant other strangely. I quickly learned that they won't take whomever made the call so I started calling before her. After her second trip she moved her shit out of my house.

Yep, although I like the law in Denver (changed about 10 years ago I think). If domestic distrurbance is called in, BOTH PARTIES go to jail for the night. Provides incentive to not accuse falsely, and separates any combatants for the evening.

Plus, there's nothing more gratifying then getting a call from your M-I-L at 2AM asking to be bailed out of jail! Anytime I hear any shit, I always bring up my trump card.

arrested for grabbing her hair and pulling her down?!

glad the cops weren't there the last time I fucked my girlfriend.

Didn't Dalton get into some shit a couple years ago, along these same lines?
