Must be the roids it's making me choke her.

Apparently it might not be as simple we thought (never is). I keep on reading that apparently she was wasted and trying to drive home. Merriman tried to restrain her but she kept fighting him off. Ironically he might have just saved her butt however I guess we'll have to wait for all the facts to come in.

Imagine that, some drunk crazy bitch going nuts and then getting the cops involved... Funny how fast and how many people piled on.

His ass is grass. There are some who still think Mike Vick got off rather lightly. Then you had this situation with Big Ben recently. On top of all of that Chris Brown just got five years probation for choking/hitting Rihanna.

I wouldn't be surprised to see every women's group come out of the woodwork to make sure Merriman doesn't see the field for a long time.

I guess they don't call him Lights Out for nothing.

The mohawk made him do it.

[TheSmurfs22]

Hell of a football player but overall the guy is a moron.

Just wondering not saying he did it or didn't, but why when Big Ben was accused of rape everyone says he's innocent but when Merriman is accused you get the "his ass is grass" statement. Maybe what Dirtbag said is true. Don't jump to conclusion.

I understand your point, but there are two major differences.

1. In Ben's case, the complainant waited for a year to file a lawsuit
In Shawn's case, the complainant called the cops at the point of the incident.

2. No criminal charges were filed or pursued in Ben's case
Shawn was arrested by cops at the alleged scene.

does either of those rule out innocent until proven guilty, no, but they do leave different first impressions.

Just saw on ESPN that she had no evidence of being assaulted. Lets be serious Shawne Merriman is 270lbs. Tila Tequila is maybe 105 wet holding a brick. If she was choked by him you would see some evidence

Ever think that maybe Merriman is just a really big ninja Anyway I guess this ads credibility to the stopping her from driving drunk story.

Looks like everyone jumped the gun on this one. Well Merriman's decision-making in some areas (steroids, initially option out of surgery and risking grave injury) have been questionable, but I guess we shouldn't jump to conclusion. Well I hope he gets his name cleared up after this whole mess.

I'm a retired Deputy Sheriff in California so let me put some light on this situation. The San Diego County Sheriff's responded to his residence reguarding a possible battery and kidnapping. She stated to the Deputies that he chocked her and stopped her from leaving his residence. The Deputies saw no signs of phyiscal injuire to her , but she insisted and she made a citizens arrest from what i heard from a Department spokes person. Anyone can make a citzen arrests which forces a police officer to make an arrest. This puts the liablity on her if he is innocent because she made a citizen or private persons arrests. As a retired Deputy you have to advise people that when they make a citizens arrests they can be sued for false arrest. This case will not even get filed by the DA'S OFFICE due to lack of evidence but because he is a High Profile suspect it will get more attention.
He may get suspended by the league if anything and i doubt that if the case doesnt get filed. Any woman or man can call the police and file a criminal complaint that he or she assualted them.
