Ravens RB Ray Rixe charged with assault on fiancée

Wasn't Rice's case in the hands of the courts as well?

 

Yeah, he plead out to avoid jail time. But that was before this new video surfaced. I don't know if that'll mean anything with the courts or not.

 

He's still in jail.
Rice was given special treatment.
Lots of people who were non violent and begged for the program Rice was given (it's for non-violent offenders) but were denied... are mighty pissed.
The AC prosecutor subsequently altered the AC county"s judicial website and removed the words 'non violent' from the program's description. Cant was for the congressional inquiry now.

 

I heard about that on talk radio. Rice did get a perk that wasn't really applying to him. Why? Because he is famous. Hadn't TMZ leaked that video, no one would know and NFL etc would not have their hand forced

 

He applies for reinstatement tomorrow and hope he gets it. The man's career shouldn't function as the battleground for the issue of domestic abuse. He's run the gauntlet of the courts, NFL, public opinion, and it's time to get back on the field.

 

Oh, please, 'run the gauntlet', he was given breaks and perks he wasn't entitled to in this case. The NFL choose to look the other way while it has been proven they had the video before they made that first ruling. Only after it was made public, the NFL had their hands forced, they had no choice as this issue have been something the NFL has tried toothlessly to combat. Having that said, I don't think his career should be over. I am 100% sure we will eventually see him on the turf again.

 

Agreed it's like people want dude to be killed for it even though his "victim" has long forgiven him and he stood before a judge. If people are truly upset about domestic violence then I'd actually like to see some more volunteering and donating. I didn't see an ice bucket challenge for this shit and it affects far more people far more frequently than ALS

 

Exactly, if you care so much about domestic abuse donate to a shelter instead of running your fucking mouth.

 

Lol. So only the ones that are on the other side of your view are 'running their fucking mouth'?, not the one on your side?
What makes you think they don't donate money or time? And why do they not have a right to state their opinion on here? Why cant they do both donate and voice their opinion? Is it either, or? Do only the ones that is on your side have that privilege to post their opinion? Quite sad. I expected more from you.
And sad if you don't care about domestic abuse. Geezus

 

Just asking , but you do realize their is a huge difference between domestic violence and a couple arguing and fighting all the time?

 

Do you think the Ray Rice situation is just a couple arguing and fighting all of the time?

 

Actually I would think so. I would think it's a very physically abusive relationship, but on both sides. You can tell she's no victim by the first punch. She didn't cower she stepped forward to hit him back. Victims usually shrink in a situation like that they don't expand. Couple that with the fact she actually married him, I assume it's just the nature of their relationship. A lot of physical abuse back and forth, I've seen a lot of couples like this they're fricking hood boogers, it just looks really bad because he knocked her out.

 

Anyone who does, is blind to domestic abuse. He spit on her not once, but twice before they entered the elevator.
Her spitting and pushing him back is a natural instinct when you are spat at 1, then 2 times.

After he punched her in the face and dragggggggggged her with her skirt up around her hips, he didn't call medics, did'nt check her pulse, just said, "she's just passed out drunk".

When she finally came too, she cried out, "How could you do that to me??! I'm the mother of your child!"

 

I think both of them clearly have problems, and problems as a couple. While she's not innocent in this... I still have to look to Rice. We learn very early in life to not hit females. On top of that... Rice is a professional football player who would be much stronger than the typical man. I get that sometimes one can lose their temper, but we also learn to walk away. The way Rice punch his wife suggests to me that it's not the only time they've gotten into physical fights. I can't imagine why some are even trying to justify his actions. Even Rice himself wasn't trying to justify his actions. It's simply inexcusable, and yet another cry that domestic abuse is a serious problem.

Between her taking that punch, and hitting the wall... They're both lucky she's alive, and wasn't seriously injured.

 

Think you have seen a edited version and I'm sorry I can't find it now, but the video I saw clearly showed her spit on him 1st then hit him, tdk is spot on women who are really victims never strike back and if they do the beating would be worse,, go to a women shelter and ask some women who have had ribs broken eye sockets busted up they learn to walk on egg shells,
This woman stepping on the shells without a damn care

 

I saw him spit on her outside the elevator area. When did you see her dpit on him?

 

Gonna see if the mrs can find it for me when I get home, tbh really don't want to look at it again it's sad and as much as I think her woofing caused his reaction a man 100lbs bigger can handle that many ways better,

It's one thing where a couple verbally fights all the time, but as soon as one of them knocks the other one out, that's domestic violence.

It's not a mutual thing.
Now if Janae had pulled out a switchblade and cut RR across his chest before he clocked her, I could believe they were both equally wrong and fucked up.

I've known couples too who would 'arm' themselves with items around the house when they argued and start throwing shit at each other.

But your woman can't cuss you out or verbally attack your manhood after which point you proceed to kick her ass, then say both sides contributed to the violence.

THe sad truth is the man generally has the upper hand when situations like this turn violent and both sides know it.

That's why I always say if a female is making you feel violent impulses towards her because you're getting that mad and out of your character, you need to leave that relationship.

 

I once posted a story about a scene of domestic violence that I had seen first-hand. I will tell it again.

It was a week before Christmas week when I saw a couple arguing in front of my job site. The woman, screaming and yelling at her boyfriend/husband, stomped off and left him in the street. He walked toward a car and the woman drove past next to him and rolled him against a truck like a cigar. The man fell as she sped away. I ran over to him and called 911. His knee was skinned up and bloody. He was in tears of pain and embarrassment. When the EMTs and police arrived, the man did not speak to the police but he let the EMTs do their job. When it was over, the man walked away. The police officer shook my hand and said, "Well, that's another one solved."
I could not really agree with the officer because despite the witness testimonies of myself and others, it wasn't enough information and the man refused to give up her name and address. The victim said that he wouldn't do that to the woman's kids. He didn't want to have her arrested despite the fact that there were witnesses to what happened. For the victim, this was an act of love.
I remember saying to the cop, "If this was an episode of Law & Order, someone would be saying, 'It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.'"
The cop then told me that a lot of crimes like domestic violence and murders occur during the holidays more than any time of the year. He told me a very lurid story about a man whose wife stabbed him in the chest with a steak knife. He told everyone at the hospital that it was his fault and not his wife's. He was stabbed again and again. He repeatedly said that it was not his wife's fault. He was stabbed again and he repeated his assertion until he died.
A month later, the man's widow told his family what happened. She found it amusing that she stabbed her husband and her husband kept her out of jail. She had gotten away with murder. Or so she thought. Her family turned her in to the police.

At my job at the time, I had seen many cases like these(usually dealing with the same couple)with the man getting out of the car and the woman, so angry, she would be behind the wheel and revving up the engine and lurching the car to hit the man. I would see the car she was driving hit the man and his body would be on the hood of the car. The man would see me and say to her," Security's seen you! Security's seen you!"
The woman would yell and scream obscenities at him as she menacingly lurched the car at him. The man would run and she would speed up to follow him(even on the sidewalk). The man, would get in the car and the woman would continue to her loud verbal assault on the man. Sometimes I could still hear her around the corner. Looking back at these incidents with this one couple, it seemed like the guy was to blame for her reactions, as violent as they were. I began to surmise that the Christmas incident was because it was the man's fault that made him the victim of his woman's wrath.
