Something seems strange to me about this indictment. It took over a year to indict him? And the Houston PD admits that the reason it took so long is because this wasn't a particularly important case to them?

It will be interesting to hear the details of this case.

Known evidence doesn't support you here, and the DA didn't see enough proof either.

Known evidence?

There was plenty of evidence shown to the NFL for them to determine something happened b/t Zeke and his crazy ex. There was not enough evidence to convict him of a crime...and it's one of the least punishable crimes since there often isn't enough evidence.

But, if you think the guy is squeaky clean, you need to take your cowboy sunglasses off. He's not a good dude when he's drinking.

you are dumb as fuck if you think Zeke did nothing.
And I am not certain at this point if what Bennett did was intentional. I feel and I want to preface this comment, I feel as if he got caught up in his emotions and just wasn't thinking.

I honestly have no idea.

The biggest question i have regarding that incident was why was the security guard used by the Super Bowl a paraplegic?

I'd think they would want the most secure possible scene there.

One would think that. But at the same time unless they are using an NFL LR or NT Bennett may have gotten through anyway.

Is that also the excuse that he used when he tried to injure the Jags O lineman last season?

Never said he was clean, but the ONLY NFL investigator to interview the "Victim" said she was untrustworthy and recommended no suspension.

All along I said if the NFL dug up evidence that shows DV, they should be required to turn it over to the authorities do they could press charges.

I’m still trying to figure out how it takes a whole year for this type of charge.

The victim could have initially declined to press charges while trying to work out a financial settlement with Bennett. When a settlement couldn't be reached, the victim could have decided to cooperate with police by pressing charges hoping a conviction would help any civil case.

Speaking from experience, when I was indicted on felony assault charges, it was nearly 18 months after the incident.

You sure some of his idiotic off the field issues didn't factor into his suspension? I'm 1 of the biggest Buckeye fans on this site but Zeke needs to grow up. Didn't he pull a womans top down in public & get a ticket for going about 100 mph?

He also punched out some DJ in town after a night of drinking but mysteriously all video disappeared of the incident and the guy decided against pressing any kind of charges.

Good call. I forgot about the bar incident. I just hope he's learned from his mistakes. Otherwise his off the field issues could cut his career short.

The DJ was so good that Zeke was dancing around to the beats with his arms flailing about like this and then accidentally made contact with his face. You see, it was really a compliment

A lot of events us the handicapped and elderly as security, and all they do is direct people to their seats.

Well the NFL did state the suspension was for the DV incident by itself. I'm on record here saying if the NFL said they were suspending Zeke for his actions in whole, I'd have been OK with it.

The only reason the league should get involved is backing Philly on shipping his arse back to Seattle and finding them for knowing this was going down the pike...
