Chiefs DE Jared Allen Arrested for Second Alleged DUI Charge
9/29/06 at 1:17 pm; ChiefsWarpath.com

[ChiefsHuddle.com] Chiefshuddle.com has confirmed through the Leawood, Kansas Police Department that Chiefs Defensive End Jared S. Allen born 04/03/82 was arrested early Tuesday morning (9/26/06) and released with a "notice to appear" on alleged charges of Driving Under the Influence.
This is Allen’s second DUI arrest in less than five months. He was first arrested on May 15, 2006 in Overland Park, Kansas. According to the Overland Park Municipal Court website, Allen entered a diversion program on July 25, 2006 on charges of Driving Under the Influence and Speeding. If the judge revokes Allen's diversion from the first DUI he could face up to a $1,500.00 fine and up to one year in jail if convicted on a second offense DUI, a class A, nonperson misdemeanor per Kansas State Statute 8-1567.

It is still unclear at this time what repercussions these alleged DUI charges will have on Jared Allen and the Kansas City Chiefs Chiefs if Jared Allen is convicted, once the policy violations are reviewed by the NFL. Kansas City Chiefs fans will remember this situation all to well from flashbacks of a four game suspension with former Chiefs Defensive Back Eric Warfield in 2005 on his third DUI charge in as many years.

[sedated]

wow, never heard about the first.

oh well. it took Eric 3 before he got suspended.

But that one wouldn't count since he didn't play in the NFL when it happened? Right?

God - how ****ing stupid do you have to be...

Do DUI's in college count toward your total? I have no idea... but it took the NFL forever to figure out Warfield had 3 DUI's. If they all count, he's in trouble.

Not just any car either, an old caddy convertible, 67 I think. Fairly high profile.

Whether the NFL counts them or not the judge sure will....Each county and states are different but most will make a three time offender spend some pretty lengthy time in the slam....3-12 month range would be fairly typical...with work realease.

[Chiefnj]

At least we have a little more insight on Vermeil's famous quote about Hicks being a good locker room presence when the Chiefs were 0-3. What he really meant was "Eric doesn't get three sheets to the wind piss drunk like the rest of these dumb ass kids. Eric's too stupid to get drunk. Now excuse me while I soak my head in a barrel of cabernet with Eric and Jared."

[ct]

I don't know. Didn't Jamal Lewis get suspended a few games before he ever signed an NFL contract? He was drafted by the Ravens at the time of the incident but was not yet under contract.

I'm thinking that the 'incident' occurred before his NFL career started, but the investigation didn't fully implicate and then prosecute him until much later. Just my fuzzy recolection, however.

Regardless, with his now 2nd offense, he should already be in the 1st offender program, now will be looking at 4 games once the prosecution concludes. If convicted that is.

[chiefz]

Keep in mind that he's only received a notice to appear, he hasn't actually been "convicted" in a court of law yet. It will probably be pushed back by the attorney for months.

[JBucc]

If we go 0-3 he should just plead guilty and serve his time or whatever he's gotta do during the latter half of the year, go through rehab or whatever in the offseason and be brand spanking new for next year's Super Bowl run. On Madden. In real life we'll suck.

A 3rd DUI is a felony, a drug-related felony, which is what triggers the NFL suspension

Right, which means he'll probably miss the first four games of next season. Personally, I'd rather see him get it over with now, since this season is pretty much down the crapper.

Next year could be a different story.

[GoHuge]

I don't know. Didn't Jamal Lewis get suspended a few games before he ever signed an NFL contract? He was drafted by the Ravens at the time of the incident but was not yet under contract.Jamal Lewis was charged with I think some sort of drug deal.

If the 1st incident was in Idaho, then it's only a 2nd offense according to KS. Since his 1st in KS resulted in a diversion program (only offered to 1st time offenders), that leads me to believe that the other referred to was in Idaho, and is N/A.

Actually the rumors were the NFL dropped the ball on Warfield's 2nd conviction, and he should have been suspended 4 games for that, then 1 year for the 3rd conviction. But since they'd already missed it, didn't skip the 2nd step of the program, and only went with 4 games. Could be all BS though, that was just the rumors.

True story: a cousin of mine was a highway patrolman for several years, and in one of his stops he had some reason to suspect drugs. They brought in a drug-sniffing dog, and the dog barked and stuff and they searched the car and found a whole bunch of drugs. My cousin was all stoked about it because it was a big bust, but then the drug-sniffing dog got stoked up and attacked him. He got teased about it a lot afterward, apparently.

The front office does have resources to, I don't know, investigate potential draftee's character. Like whether they're involved in bar fights every weekend. Which might be indicator of bad judgement and a predictor of future off-field incidents.

Not that I'm blaming Carl. Allen was a great draft pick. Now drafting Boomer as his drinking buddy, that's another story.

Allen has to be convicted first before the NFL makes a decision on what type of a suspension he'll be getting.

Chiefs defensive end charged with DUI
Associated Press

LEAWOOD, Kan. - Kansas City Chiefs defensive end Jared Allen was charged Friday with driving under the influence after a police officer pulled him over for driving erratically earlier this week, police said.

Leawood Police Capt. Dale Finger said police pulled Allen over around 1:30 a.m. Tuesday after following a Dodge Charger that was not staying in the lane.

Finger said Allen, who was alone in the car, refused to undergo sobriety testing and to take a breathalyzer test, so the officer placed him under arrest for DUI.

In Kansas, not submitting to a breath test earns an automatic suspension of the driver's license.

Allen was not put in jail but given a notice to appear in court on Oct. 25, Finger said. The officer then drove Allen home.

Neither Allen nor the Chiefs would comment on the incident Friday.

Through the first two games of the season, Allen has 10 tackles, three assists and a sack. Last season, he led the team with 11 sacks and had 44 tackles and 27 assists.

[Coach]

After the Leneord Little incidents, you would think the NFL would lay the hammer down??

I honestly don't know. The NFL sure as hell can't suspend him until after the legal system makes it's course and all that.

I don't know if the NFL will determine that it will be his first DUI, or a 2nd, since the first time happened in May. So this, I don't know.

And as for Leonard Little, while I don't like people driving drunk, Little killed a driver on a different vechile, didn't he? If so, it is manslaughter. Fortunately for Allen, he didn't kill someone during the process, you know?

[sedated]

I love driving drunk

it's one of my hobbies, along with stealing baby jesuses from nativity scenes at christmas

[Hydrae]

Hopefully that will keep this from happening again.

Either that or he will get popped for driving suspended AND DUI. :banghead:

[Rausch]

Depends on how the NFL rules are written.

I know that in MO. if he refused a test it can't be proven he was drinking and driving or doing anything illegal.

Now, if the NFL says refusing a test lands you the same punishment he's screwed.

[Deberg_1990]

Sounds like it a was a smart move not to take any field tests. Most people take it because it's an automatic 6 month license revocation if you don't. It's a hardship for most people to lose their license for that amount of time. But if you are a rich football player you can afford a car service for 6 months. Boomer will probably drive him if he lets him drive the caddy.

Exactly. That's the smartest thing he could've done. By the time they could legally MAKE him submit a blood test, chances are he'd be under the legal limit...plus I'm sure the legal system is so overbooked in KS that the state's attorney will just make a deal with Allen's attorney, and he might lose his license but he won't get a DUI.

It's sad, but this isn't preferable treatment...happens every day in every state.

[jspchief]

Yea, Allen's a real genius for refusing the test. That's almost as smart as just calling a cab.

In IA, you can get convicted without blood or breath test, based solely on the officer's expert testimony. I'd be surprised if that's not the case eveywhere. That being said, I imagine the state attorney has better uses of their time than to take all these cases to trial.

Regardless of conviction, it's disappointing to say the least. I'd prefer that the guys I root for on Sunday not be dumbasses. I've gone from considering getting an Allen jersey to hoping we don't re-sign him.

[wazu]

Lock him up and throw away the key. We don't need a "Leonard Little" story in KC.

Eh, I plead being a dumbass, admittedly. I drove drunk all the time for a good 25+ year stretch of my life. On July 30th, 2004 that all changed.

I finally got caught, and I was doing 78 in a 45 coming home from a night out with the boys. It was the most humilating, life changing experience I have ever been through. Since that time, I have never, not once, had as much as one drink if I'm driving. For me, there are 2 things that keep me from repeating this stupidity:

1. I could have killed or injured someone else that night - which is hard to even think about now.

2. I have two little kids, and I don't want them thinking their Dad's "and idiot". They struggled with that concept enough when I didn't drive drunk. Point is, I want to teach them to be responsible, and it would be tough to do that if I was being a drinken, drivin' hypocrite.

Did you miss the part where it said the cop then GAVE HIM A RIDE HOME?

The "Wild-Ass Country Boy" schtick never gets old, but the "Dumbass Drunk" schtick is never fresh.

Wait a minute. Are we sure it wasn't the Bucs QB named Jared Allen that got the DUI?

Sounds like it a was a smart move not to take any field tests. Most people take it because it's an automatic 6 month license revocation if you don't. It's a hardship for most people to lose their license for that amount of time. But if you are a rich football player you can afford a car service for 6 months. Boomer will probably drive him if he lets him drive the caddy.

You're exactly right. He will end up getting out of it with a good lawyer. He is still a stupid SOB for putting himself in that position.

Two comments about his mug shot....

1) I think it would've been pretty funny if he would've crossed his eyes like he did for the Monday Night Football and Arrowhead scoreboard close-up shots.

2) Was he in the process of getting his hair cut when he got the DUI? Looks like he's wearing one of those barber shop capes.
