Re: Haynesworth Indicted On Sexual Abuse

He probably didn't do it, but if he did it is a big deal. Even if someone is flirting doesn't mean you should grab them. Just because people have done it before doesn't make it right.

Re: Haynesworth Indicted On Sexual Abuse

Im first assumed the government also tried to get him indicted on a 3rd (10 yrs max incaceration) and/or 4th degree (5 yrs max) sexual abuse charges b/c I dont understand why they would go to the GJ to indict him for misdemeanor sex abuse. Both those require either force, threat of force or mental incapacitation (lady was drunk drunk, unconscious, couldnt consent etc).

The only thing I can think is that a GJ indictment makes it harder to try and win on a "lack of sufficient evid to charge" type motion to dismiss before trial.

I co-chaired a 3rd, 4th degree sex abuse and mis. sex abuse (really just simple assault) in DC superior ct last summer. My experience is that the gov't (like alot of st atty offices nowadays) do not offer good pleas for sexual crimes, they are taking a hard stance on those types of actions and seek atleast some jail time which normally means a trial.

From the DC annotated crim code, Ct of Appeals found evid was suff to convict for mis sex abuse when a guy "moved his seat to be near her, repeatedly touched her, and remarked that she should call him for a good time." I think anything that AH might have said to her like "call me for a good time" or "what are you doing after work" or "whats your number lets get together" could hurt him in court b/c it shows his intent to touch was sexual or a physical attraction.

he could still be found guilty of a lesser included non-sexual offensive touching.

Re: Haynesworth Indicted On Sexual Abuse

NFL.com news: Charges against Haynesworth could be dropped with plea deal

Haynesworth: Accuser "Was Just Upset I Have A White Girlfriend"

Yesterday, Redskins defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth was indicted on sexual abuse charges in connection with an incident which occurred on February 13 at the W Hotel. Haynesworth allegedly caressed a waitress' breast during the incident; the court documents, though, show that the encounter was far more involved than simply a wealthy sports player getting a little too handy with the wait staff.

According to the court documents filed by the U.S. Attorney's Office, Haynesworth pulled out a debit card to pay for his table's $811.23 bill, tapped the waitress on the shoulder with the card, then "proceeded to put the card down the center of [the waitress'] bra," and moved his hand near her breast and asked "can I do that?" After the waitress said no, Haynesworth allegedly moved "his fingers in circles around [the waitress'] left nipple." Upon being interviewed by a security guard at the hotel, Haynesworth said he "didn't touch" the waitress, because she was "a little black girl" and he "doesn't even like little black girls." Haynesworth later told police that the waitress "was just upset I have a white girlfriend" and that the waitress "was trying to get with me."

As Amanda Hess comprehensively points out, those suggesting that the woman's charges are bunk would be well-served to curb their victim-blaming for any number of reasons. Haynesworth's been offered a plea deal which would dismiss the sexual abuse charge if he pleads guilty to one count of simple assault, which might potentially save the player jail time -- the deal's on the table until mid-May.

It has been reported Haynesworth would not accept the plea deal offered by prosecutors....link

Re: Haynesworth Indicted On Sexual Abuse

“I didn’t touch her,” Haynesworth said, according to documents. He also explained that he doesn’t “even like black girls.”

Haynesworth even took it a step farther, claiming that the alleged victim was motivated by Haynesworth’s taste in women.

“I know what this is about, she is just upset I have a white girlfriend,” Haynesworth reportedly told detectives. “I couldn’t tell you the last time I dated a black girl. She was trying to get with me.”

There's a difference between preferences and...ummm off limits. If you like women you are capable of making a fool of yourself to any ethnic group of women. Black women may not be his first choice but that doesn't mean he doesn't find them attractive. Certainly doesn't get him off the hook for this.
