The New Orleans Police Department has issued a simple battery warrant for Odell Beckham Jr. after he slapped a police officer on the butt inside LSU's locker room on Monday night at the Superdome. Per NOLA.com:
quote:

New Orleans police on Thursday morning obtained an arrest warrant accusing NFL player Odell Beckham Jr. of simple battery in relation to a locker room interaction he had with a Superdome police officer Monday night.

A police spokesman said the warrant was issued after a video showed Beckham apparently slapping an officer's buttocks after LSU's championship game.

A law enforcement source said authorities originally sought a warrant for a misdemeanor sexual battery charge, but it was declined by a judge.
Here's video of the incident:

Not sure why that cop was even in there with that bullshite. They were partying, no one was getting hurt. If he had a problem with the guys smoking he should have went to the coach and told him to shut it down. Any damage that was caused will be taken care of once everyone was cleared out and it was assessed. Cops like this one gives the rest of them a bad name.

Them issuing a warrant for OBJ was chicken shite as well. If that cop had a problem with what happened he should have addressed it when it happened. He didn't have to arrest him, but he could of wrote a summons to appear at the time. He just went back to the precinct where he got ragged by other cops and felt embarrassed so now he wants to press charges. Like the guy who runs up wanting to fight until he gets his arse kicked then wants to press charges.

Why was the cop in the locker room in the first place?

There were complaints of heavy smoke wafting through the corridors. There is a no smoking indoor policy in the state of Louisiana. I don't want second hand smoke cancer. This guy was just doing his job. If Clemson won and the roles were reversed you would be praising the officers for doing their job for once. I guarantee it.

talk about RAT POISON. Coach O, please get this guy away from the program. If he can get help, I am sure everyone would gladly welcome him back.

Wow. Both are dumb and overstepped their bounds but what if the roles were reversed? OBJ was just having fun but the taunting at the end was annoying.

Also I just noticed that coach munez walked right in front of Beckham after the arse slap (white button down and glasses)

The fact that they tried to charge him for warrant for a misdemeanor sexual battery is just sad

I’d be surprised if there isn’t a civil lawsuit attached to this.

What the heck was these cops doing in the locker room questioning people? Does New Orleans ever want another championship again?

The camera angle didn't show if it was a cheek slap or if he tapped that bee hole. Why was the cop in there? He extended himself a little to much aw thor it tie.

1) Confirmed by my NOPD Sources, this is a rent a cop. 2) Rent a cop getting all worked up over celebratory cigar smoking in the locker room and pressing battery charges on OBJ for a butt slap is the most Louisiana Thing Ever. 3) OBJ should have calmed his arse down and the only thing we'd be hearing about is a small incident over friggin cigar smoke and rent a cop would have been shamed on the internet.

Just wait. This arrest warrant is a first step in the process for the civil suit settlement. Sexual assault would have given more negotiation power to the rent-a-cop attorney. This will be settled and go away
