2) Would anyone like to see IOWA take a chance?
Probably plenty of IOWA haters would like IOWA to take the chance. They probably would hope it would increase internal team distractions and dissention well beyond the degree external social media "personalities" could possibly incite regardless of who might pay them.

Before anyone would take a chance, I think they would try to have a conversation with Coach Smith.

I don’t see any big school taking a chance. A small school where wrestling is the sport of greatest notoriety might take a chance.

In this day and age big sport schools likely already have athletic department administrators specifically to monitor all athlete posts, and as a condition of team participation, athletes are likely to allow their accounts to be monitored.

I don't even think Coach Goodale would blindly risk his perhaps tenuous B1G head coaching position by taking a chance that might reflect badly on the larger University and conference.

Before he did, I think he would talk to Coach Smith about specifics. And if he didn't really have a problem with those specifics AND AJ is fully exonerated, well then only under those conditions, it seems more possible.

Maybe we should just call him the hammer. Personally, I just think he wants to get a lot of 'likes" :)

Yeah, people who post things solely for likes are the worst.

Everyone is young and stupid at some point. Young and criminal is something different all together.
If he were in NY, Chicago or one of these other cities he prolly wouldn't even been charged. Thatz where the judicial system is now
 
Really? I think you’re mistaken. Sounds like a Faux “News” bias.
Well, maybe taken out of context. I could've worded that differently so my bad. I'll admit when I'm wrong and I was.

I have a 24 year old daughter at that dude deserves everything het gets. Waz never a a Ferrari fan to begin with.

Gotta admit though - a LOT of crimes in major cities do go unpunished.

It seems the bigger the city the less they prosecute. I live in a small to medium size town. 125000 people. A friend had his car stolen. They got it back the next day all dented and damaged. the cop said, "ok, you got your car back. We are leaving." They did not even look for the thief. The cop said that they don't even bother with those cases.
No money in it for the police or the city (as compared to a DUI or no seat belt) and a lot of work. Then what will they do if they catch the guy? Put him/her in jail and spend more money of them? It is crazy what a person has to do in a big city to get arrested.

Wish you were wrong. When I first moved to Boston, I witnessed a white van going down the street at 4.a.m. cutting bike locks one-by-one and loading the bikes into a truck. Obviously, this was an organized crime ring. I called the Police Department, and they laughed over the phone. The guy said, "You're not from around here, are you." He then said that they didn't have sufficient personnel to investigate every larceny immediately." They did stop by a few days later to get my statement, however, and they do take violent crimes and injuries seriously. Thank God.
 
it actually has a lot to do with it. unless your head's in the sand, you know that in big cities letting people walk for even serious crimes is now en vogue. happens every day. so much so that's it's not even anecdotal anymore. it's 'the way it is'.

*edit - actually - apologies. i haven't seen it much in chicago. but pretty much every other major city.

24 years of Law Enforcement in LA agreed with your last statement especially since 2020

I was merely pointing out that the linked story I referred to involves the ATF and their roles and responsibilities of enforcing federal law. Chicago and other cities aren't likely involved much at all in those cases.

And I don't disagree that larger cities prosecutors and LE may not pursue certain charges for a variety of reasons. Often times there are "bigger fish to fry", much to the dismay of the various victims of these crimes.
 
They took PD3
Serious question. Did PD3 ever have any legal troubles post HS? Serious question. I know he had some assault charges in HS. And I know he was generally a similar kind of arrogant asshole in college, but I don’t recall any specific legal issues during his college years.
 
That's cool and all but it has nothing whatsoever to do with Chicago LE, prosecutors or their judicial system.
When I did a "search", that was the first to come up. The statement is accurate, I just got a little lazy. I can post 20 if needed.

 
As pointed out, this article contains no nexus to big city judicial.

The ATF - federal (not local).

The ATF - part of the executive branch - Cabinet Level Department of Justice (not judicial).

The city mayor highlighted the federal leniency pointing out a nexus to gun crime.
Are you saying that if a guy kills someone with a gun in a city, it is the ATF's responsibility to punish the person and the city has no jurisdiction? I think the original point was that a lot of crimes go unpunished in bigger cities. Of course the mayor is going to blame someone else for the crime rates.

Regardless, many crimes go unpunished and maybe for good reason: No prison safe, not enough man power to catch and investigate, a system of laws that makes it hard to get a conviction (which is a good thing in my mind).

I guess this all relates to my original post. When there are "no bail" laws and criminals are released within hours after being arrested and most cases ultimately dropped there is no deterrent. It's criminal heaven. It's not that way around here but it is in a LOT of places.

No, I am saying the ATF enforces federal gun laws like those against strawman purchases (or chooses not to), and those gun laws violations are tried in Federal Courts. The article talks about the lack of that happening, as the mayor pointed out leads to more gun crimes.

In other words, the mayor was postulating the equivalent of 'nipping it in the bud' or 'a stitch in time saves nine.' You know, one of those ol' timey common sense sayings about being prudently proactive.

I realize enforcement officers are expected to exercise some discretion up front, whether it's a traffic stop or a domestic dispute. Doesn't matter where you are in the USA.
 
There are similarities in the rural area. Meth heads out and about doing meth head stuff. Breaking into farm shops and machines sheds in the middle of the night. Stealing tractor batteries, copper, vehicles or anything else they can make a buck off of to get their next "fix". Tweakers are definitely a problem, but it appears the law just looks the other way. Always hear how they are waiting to catch the "big fish" and not worried about the "little ones", but yet they'll spend their time hiding in a cemetery waiting to catch someone going 62 in a 55. Year after year the "big bust" never happens. Just makes no sense to me.
 
Well when it rains it pours it appears for the Ferraris. This somewhat strengthens my assumption that problems like these often originate due to an inadequate level of parenting.
There must be a lot of hatred for Albert to include him in the headline. Sounds like he has made some enemies in the wrong places, because there is no reason to include him in the headline, unless someone is out to get him or smear him even more than he already has been smeared.

Smear? I respectfully disagree. You get what you earn.

I think if anybody was out to get them, they would only need to report what allegedly happened in both cases.

Aren't you looking for the word "alleged"?
Like most boards, the cesspool is a rumor mill where reports and rumors get repeated, and maybe even amplified. IF he did what he was alleged to do, then Chief is right: he earned it.

If not, then you have a point: he doesn't deserve this vitriol, at least not until the facts become known.

Given all the legal mess, something must have happened. Right now, it doesn't look good. Okie State is not known as a place that would hastily dismiss a National Champion for poor reasons. They aren't oversensitive snowflakes down there in Stillwater.

OR, maybe this thread was intended to be about Italian sports cars, and we're all mistaken. :)

Well, OK State booted Albert and brother off of the team. I doubt it was for allegedly chewing gum in class.
