News Release from BRPD:
quote:

The Baton Rouge Police Department has secured arrest warrants for , JORDAN JEFFERSON and JOSHUA JOHNS for the felony charge of SECOND DEGREE BATTERY.

We have contacted their Attorney Nathan Fisher and LSU Coach Les Miles and requested that these two individuals turn themselves in. They are in the process of making those arrangements.


News Release from LSU SID:
quote:

BATON ROUGE – Jordan Jefferson and Josh Johns have been suspended indefinitely from the LSU football team, head coach Les Miles announced on Friday.

Miles said that no timetable has been set on the suspension.

“Jordan and Josh have been suspended indefinitely,” Miles said. “We will continue to cooperate with the authorities in an effort to find out exactly what took place during the incident.

“As sad as this incident is, it’s important that we learn from this and that we take away a valuable lesson. This has weighed on all of us. It’s time for us to come together as a team and focus on what we are here to do.”

I take it this means that Davenport and Landry aren't suspended? Maybe I am being too optimistic.

I knew Les would handle it correctly - and he has.

Legit question, do you guys think that they need to be found guilty to sit, or just charged with the crime? Basically, do you think Les will allow them back to play before the legal issues are cleared up.

I highly doubt the second-degree battery charges stick. Probably will plea down or something along those lines

The only way they'll play again is if they're cleared of the charges. If they're convicted, that's a felony and they're kicked off the team.
