If she believes that his career is toast, she no longer has any reason to protect him. Lucky for the child she was dumb enough to record herself.

Seems that way to me as well. Some want to let it play out, which is more than fair as well.

So uh..... What the ****?

Quoted wrong tweet.

Oh this some bullshit right here. News reporter has the audio for weeks but waited till the DA made a decision then once said no charges then released it. Is that a crime?

Whoa

After holding the press conference two days ago, and having to stand up there and say they couldn't prove the crime they feel that was committed. The DA has to have a really good feeling they can move forward with potential charges to reopen the criminal case.

Bruh this is obstruction of justice.

I heard on the radio through all the chaos yesterday, that they were forced to hold off releasing it due to lawyers. Did anyone else hear that?

It depends on "shield laws" for journalists in KS....

KCTV5 May be looking at charges now. This whole situation has a lot of moving parts.

During litigation, unless she was commanded by the court to reveal her sources or evidence for the court, no.

LOL no one from KCTV is getting charged with anything...

Wow. Espinal is truly dumb as shit lol. Why would you give that recording to someone else 'incase'. She managed to **** herself and her child while in the process of ****ing over Reek.

Depends on circumstances. 2010 law, so I'm not sure if it's been updated....

Quote:

The bill, often called a "shield law," would allow courts to require journalists to turn over their unpublished notes, videos and photographs only in certain circumstances. Those circumstances are if a court decided the information: * Could not be otherwise obtained * Is relevant to the case * And is of a compelling interest.

****.

You should probably just trying to talk about legal consequences, because you’re really far off here.

1) perjury charges are not applicable for lying to police
2) victims of domestic abuse are very rarely subjected to obstruction of justice charges. Highly, highly unlikely. Most dangerous outcome for her is in affecting her parental rights. Prosecutors rarely even bluff charging obstruction for domestic violence victims who lie to shield their victims because it discourages other from coming forward with the truth and because the human empathy factor is so bad.


Not even close.

Ugh...

KCTV 5 should be sued to high heaven.

Continue to point fingers at everyone but the problem.

For what?

Somehow, you gotta think THIS guy is involved!!

You clearly have no idea about laws and journalism, do you? You should read up on it....

Ok I’m at the point now that everyone should be punished for any wrongdoing. If Tyreek abused his kid he goes to jail. If Crystal covered it up, goodbye bitch you go to jail also. If the media did anything wrong I want them sued to shit and jailed for my lulz. Basically, burn this bitch to the ground.

This has to be the fastest 'Madden Curse' ever.

So...

Someone broke the kid's arm (prolly Reek).

Crystal and Reek are in the airport in Dubai after the cops were called in
March and she records their discussion, in which he denies breaking the boys arm while saying that she "uses a belt too". She in turn talks about how he punches the kid in the chest when he's disciplining him, and he uses a belt. She also says she covered for him with authorities.

She releases the recording to "somebody", who passes it around and it finally winds up in the hands of a reporter, who holds on to the recording until the person who gave it to her says it's OK.

The DA says there are no charges being filed against either, but that a crime was commited and they have 5 years to re-open if new evidence surfaces.

The audio is aired on KCTV5 the next night because the informant gives the go-ahead.

That night, cops are called to Tyreeks' house hours after the audio is aired, again he may or may not have even been home when they arrive.

Chiefs suspend Tyreek.

Cops re-open the case today. Both Reek and Crystal are back where they started, under investigation only now there's an audio recording.

I mean...you can't make this shit up...

Obstruction of justice.

The dime-store legal opinions (without any qualifiers) in here are priceless.... LMAO

As Lincoln said, It’s better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid than open it and remove all doubt.

Not even close.

If I’m the DA I’d be pissed someone with held information and made me look bad. I don’t care if they cry but my source asked me not to release.

Pretty sure I read the police from last night thing was just someone calling them to go check, the fiancé was there alone and fine.

In this case you are correct, I do not. That said, I find it completely reprehensible that this audio, which could not be deemed significant enough to establish a legitimate case with the OP DA's office, was released to the media in an effort to create a verdict of "guilty" amongst the knee-jerk, court of public opinion.
As a known defender of the legal process, do you find this situation acceptable?

Pretty much this.

It's my understanding that they DID have it.

Johnson County DA is reopening the case after hearing the audio

They received it yesterday, according to reporting.

KCTV5 reporter was the only one who had access to that previously, and her source hasn’t cleared playing it.

They did not.

From what I've seen thus far,the OP DA didn't have the audio...otherwise, they'd both likely be in cuffs before judges today. I'm troubled by some shield laws, sure; however, balancing them against 1st amendment protections is tricky...

Soooo hearing about him striking his son in the chest while he cries and then telling his pregnant girlfriend, who he's already assaulted once, that she should be scared of him too and then coming to an opinion of that.......is knee jerk?

Heh ok.

Maybe they “colluded”???

If the media is protected, what about the person who gave them the audio? That person had pertinent information about an ongoing case. The media should now have to give up their source.

If they "colluded"...the CIC would already be in an orange jumpsuit....

Maybe we have a foreign adversary behind this, trying to divide our fan base?


(‘Reek might as well go with that one)

You should listen to Lincoln...

The DA, nor the Chiefs, nor Tyreek knew about the audio's existence. Crystal obviously knew it existed, but had no idea it was in the hands of the media.

They were all made aware of the audio before it aired yesterday, in a controlled and coordinated manner.

The mental gymnastics and amateur legal takes on this board are almost actually unbelievable they're so stupid. To think that the news station doesn't have a team of lawyers that have vetted every applicable statute is asinine. Furthermore, there's been like 5 different people that suggested Crystal is now in legal jeopardy as well. I feel like this place is sometimes the actual Twilight Zone.

I'm sure the absolute irony of your post, is lost on you...


LMAO

Why?

So a bunch of people on a message board can scour the internet for information about said person. And the really crazy ones can start to harass him or her?

Nobody is in legal jeopardy including ‘Reek. A tape isn’t conclusive evidence of a crime. They **may** get him on a threat charge vs Crystal, but that’s about it.

You may want to read up on the many laws that protect a media source.

Maybe because it was slimey giving it to the media instead of the police.

All the people in here looking at this as “Tyreek needs to get away from this crazy bitch before she ruins him!!!”

Just...smfh. SMFH. There really are no words for how twisted one has to be for this to be their thought process.

Is it POSSIBLE it’s all a set up and she’s a complete psycho? Sure. Just like there’s a chance the Giants win the Super Bowl next year.

How about they’re both ****ed and this is a terrible, awful situation that is only usurped in recent memory by Belcher

It does seem like a horrible relationship. Based on the audio tape seems like he treats her like shit and they constantly argue. Crazy she went back to him after the whole beating her up while she was pregnant incident but as we all know - money talks.

They probably fight like crazy and **** like crazy...emphasis on crazy...

Schefter said Hills NFL future is in serious jeopardy. Dominique Foxwoeth who was part of the NFLPA says if the NFL tried to ban Hill from the NFL that the NFLPA will fight it and they will win since this is Hills first offense

Every single media person knows Hill isn’t done in the NFL. They are on their high horse. They will pretend to be offended, but they all know the NFL is the reason they have a job.

The reporter had an ethical and moral obligation to get that audio to the authorities.

I think immaturity is a big factor as well. He was 21 or 22 when that first incident occurred, and he's only 25 now. Presumably she's about the same age.

When I was that age, I was in a relationship with a very toxic and messed up person. At my current level of age/wisdom, I would ditch her immediately. When I was 40 I would have ditched her immediately. But when I was 25? I was an idiot. It took two years of consistent problems with her to finally get me to shed her, because I simply wasn't mature enough to realize that life goes on pretty quickly.

From Tyreek's perspective, she was very attractive, and guys like that. From Crystal's perspective, he was a big chest of gold doubloons and gemstones, and women like that. And on top of that, they had a kid. They were immature young people, and they didn't have the experience to realize that they could just move on.

Lol moral and ethics in today’s journalism. Thanks for that laugh I needed it.

I dont think the owners are sure he's not done in the nfl. In fact there is at least one who thinks he might be...

The bigger laugh is that some of you demand a high standard of ethics and morality from journalists while proclaiming that you'd support Hitler if it helped the Chiefs win a Super Bowl.

Take SDH, lord of the lowlifes:
"That reporter is a ****ing **** for doing her job."

"How dare you call Tyreek a piece of shit. I am a firm believer in the legal process."

Can't wait to see what's next from some of you. :clap:

There will be at least one scumbag owner that will take him, and it will all magically wash away.

I think that if a player is suspended, and waived by a team, that a team that is interested must claim and sign a contract within 48 hours with said player.

That way they get the full brunt of the media, and if it doesn’t work out they are stuck with the contract.

Cleveland got to come in and sign a piece of shit with zero fallout. That is wrong on many levels.

Guess what...

https://bleacherreport.com/articles/...-to-play-again

ROFL Bet you do Stat Boy. I bet you do...

Shocking!

At least someone is honest.

Talent always wins out in the end...

Ask Jeffery Simmons.

100% accurate.

Exactly why you don’t cut him. I’d even say that by cutting him he will even get less of a suspension.

If Michael Vick got to play again, Hill certainly could. But a ways down the road and not for the Chiefs.

Its ridiculous how the team he's with gets to eat shit but then another team can sign him scott free.

No. Banned.

It won't happen.

The union will fight it and win.

Exactly, no team should be able to sign him.

This defeats the purpose

In light of that obvious reality, I’m actually able to live with them just suspending him for the rest of his contract with the chiefs to hold his rights, until Old Rog makes a comment.

Potentially. Not sure how that affects the cap and roster numbers.

I hope you are right, but look at league history.

I don’t see a ban happening.

But the better course might be for the chiefs to have let the NFL handle the suspension. Then indicate they will reevaluate at the end of the suspension. If Hunt/Hill actually takes steps to solve the issues etc. Not sure there would be the huge fallout. The Chiefs would have been in the same position of the Browns.

Some teams have back bones and others don’t.


Some teams try to help players. Others don’t.

So why cut him? Chiefs are going to take bad pr if he is cut or not. And I believe you are sincere in hoping the Pats would never sign him.

Sure is. :cuss:
