JJ update WDSU

His lawyer sounds like he costs a lot of money per hour.

quote:

Unglesby describes Jefferson's role in the scuffle as that of a concerned teammate who intervened only to separate other LSU players from the melee. He said Jefferson does not drink, was not intoxicated and did not at any time kick the alleged victim.

Then it should be really easy for JJ to identify the "real" kicker. Identify the "real" kicker in a closed door meeting and have Miles give the "real" kicker the opportunity to apologize to JJ in front of the whole team before turning himself in.

I think the attorney's argument is exactly correct. I sense the physical "evidence" is flimsy at best and likely non-existent and hence the investigation is totally dependent on testimony of questionable 'witnesses'.

Otherwise, the DA would make the charge.

Considering the nature of the alleged "crime" and its level of seriousness (a bar fight for goodness sake), all of this is a terrible waste of taxpayer resources and may end up being an horrible injustice to Jefferson personally.

The attorney is correct is affirming that no court action can rectify the damage done to JJ should it eventually not prove worthy of a trial.
