From Rotoworld, Patriots WR/KR Julian Edelman will be arraigned on charges of indecent assault and battery in Boston Municipal Court Tuesday. Per the Boston Herald, Edelman allegedly "reached under" a woman's party costume and grabbed her between the legs while on the dance floor. The incident occurred in a Copley Square bar. Edelman has appeared in four games this season, catching three passes and serving as the Pats' primary return man when active. He was a healthy scratch in Week 8.
I highly doubt anything will come of this. They were at a bar on Halloween, the girl was probably dressed scandalously and also intoxicated. The defense attorney will shred their case apart.
True...all girls who dress slutty and drink on Halloween should just expect to have a random guy grab their box. I think I saw that on the Peoples court once.
Not that it's right for that to have happened, if it did, but it has no legs in court and will end up being dropped. He said she said with a decent defense attorney gets killed anyway, add in slutty Halloween costume in a bar and it's a no brainer.
agreed...however shit like this with professional athletes never usually makes it that far. Theres usually just a payout of some kind.
Maybe he is a really bad drunk dancer and was swinging his arms around with his thumbs up while she was dancing in a slutty outfit and happened to bend over right when he raised his thumb up? Thunk. Your Honor, I submit that this sort of misunderstanding could happen to any one of us as we are all white and extremely awkward on the dance floor.
ill be honest here. he probably was wasted drunk, grabbed a girls ass, or something. but i'm going to troll, and say he is a scumbag filthy bastard who should go to jail for 10 years.
The thread on Edelman's arrest at patsfans.com is hilarious, some of their posters are coming out as professed ass grabbers in defense of Edelman. These commentary on the frequency and acceptability of assgrabbing is priceless!
