is accused of allowing two men wanted for murder to stay at his dorm room on the LSU campus earlier this year.


What's the legal definition for"stay?" Were they in his dorm for an hour and left? Were they there all summer? How should he have definitively known that they were wanted?

There are too many unknowns to get to a conclusion that he did something wrong. From a purely football point of view: was he actually going to play this year?

All this shows is that the suspects stayed at Lindsey's dorm/apartment at some point after a murder. It shows literally nothing else.
if that was your family member that these two thugs killed, would you still be finding a way to defend someone that hid them?

What will it take for these young guys to realize they have a future to prioritize. Leave these thugs behind and take advantage of the opportunities in front of you. If this kid is successful at LSU, these two thugs just cost him draft money. Why risk it? Why give an nfl team a reason to question if your worth the investment. For friends that are likely gonna be in prison the rest of their lives. Makes no logical sense!!!

No, IF, big IF, he was proven to be actively hiding him no normal citizen would.

We don't know that yet. That's why they have trials.

Pretty sure US Marshalls showed up and picked up the guys, investigators decided they needed to look into where the guys were staying, probably got told they were staying for an extended amount of time, and a judge signed a warrant thinking there's no way JT didn't know these guys did something bad.

They can charge him and see if he has any info and will roll on the other 2.

In no way have I defended Lindsey in this thread. I am a lawyer. I have pointed out legal thresholds that the DA must meet, and legal arguments that Lindsey could make in response.

Also, what proof do we have that Lindsey "hid' anybody? This is why you don't make conclusory posts in threads like this, because you have no information about the case other than a press release with limited facts.

That sounds like pretty much worst case scenario for Lindsey.

Unless he wasn't there and they broke into his dorm without him knowing.

Associating with murderers is a bad look


Agreed but unfortunately that would be rather hypocritical for Brian Kelly.

That's not the question and it is irrelevant if the wanted guys knew that he played football.

this was a murder in Alexandria in May. Arrested in August in Baton Rouge in the dorm of another Alexandria native…both of them.

I sure want to be positive here, as I knew JT to be a very nice respectful young man. But it’s a bad look at a minimum
