Well, I pretty much understand right now that’s he’s in a position where he’s almost entirely at the mercy of the DA, so any time he is or is not sentenced with rides on their disposition, but to date Rice has not put forth a good look at all regarding remorse or cooperation despite his admission.Dynasty DeLorean wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2024 7:25 amYeah, the ppl who think he’s going to do years in jail don’t quite understand our justice system.

Re: Rashee Rice or Justyn Ross?
I'm no lawyer, I'm not from Texas, I've got no answer for you. I just read way too much DFF related info and I'm seeing this sentiment a few places. I'm also a skeptic as far as expecting the "right thing" to happen leagally and politicaly, so it's not a big leap in my mind that the good old boys and the NFL and everyone all up and down the line will move this along and get Rice back on the field.Bronco Billy wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2024 7:29 amThis is just out of curiosity and not to be argumentative, but what incentive do you see for the DA in the case to plead the charges down? They have the video and Rice’s confession that fully support all the charges, which pretty much precludes the need for a trial. If the DA were to sustain all charges, what defense would Rice put forth?yinzername wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2024 6:21 am charges are set up for an easy plea down, bet he get's 4 games max from the NFL

The video shows callous disregard for all others as the group walks calmly from the scene as well as potentially removing other damaging evidence. Rice lawyered up immediately yet refused to communicate for days, providing Rice and his crew to coordinate and rehearse their responses, delaying to the point where warrants had to be issued.
It seems to me that the DA strongly holds the position of leverage in a high profile case where appearing soft in what looks like a slam dunk could be damaging to them. On the other hand, if the DA is a Soros backed DA Rice and his attorney might be gambling on getting a small fine and walking away clear beyond any further legal consequences. I don’t know if anyone here is familiar with the jurisdiction.

Re: Rashee Rice or Justyn Ross?
lol, i get that, fortunately both my leagues are pretty good groups of friends, low-balls and potshots fly around all the time, but trade activity is robust all the same. we love to deal, most of our intereactions start with owners very far apart, one guy comes way high, one guy comes way low, everyone makes a big demonstrative case defending their ridiculous offer, averyone has a chuckle, business ensues.FiremanEd wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2024 7:46 amThose offers are brutal.

howvere one of the Rice owners in one of the leagues has openly come off as pretty panicky about the Rice situation, so while I don't expect my opening offer to fly, I still think there's a chance to buy very low there

Re: Rashee Rice or Justyn Ross?
Cases do not go to trial, they reach plea deals, specially when the DA has to go against a high priced skilled lawyer. They are plenty of defenses Rice can use to the specific charges.Bronco Billy wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2024 7:33 amWell, I pretty much understand right now that’s he’s in a position where he’s almost entirely at the mercy of the DA, so any time he is or is not sentenced with rides on their disposition, but to date Rice has not put forth a good look at all regarding remorse or cooperation despite his admission.Dynasty DeLorean wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2024 7:25 amYeah, the ppl who think he’s going to do years in jail don’t quite understand our justice system.
Rice's lawyer is Senator Royce West. I am sure there will plenty of incentive given to the DA to reach a plea agreement. And I'd argue, the DA is at Royce West's mercy.

Re: Rashee Rice or Justyn Ross?
I have not dug into the details of this story, so correct me if I’m wrong. But the only thing easily proven is rice was driving a car, crashed, and left the scene. Nobody is going to jail for this for any substantial amount of time when they have the type of money Rice does. The rest of the stuff is not a slam dunk and will be hard to prove unless I am missing something.

Re: Rashee Rice or Justyn Ross?
Had a friend in high school, drive drunk and kill his best friend. He fled in scene in panic, was eventually convicted of manslaughter. He served less than a year. I bring this up solely, because I'd be utterly shocked if Rice sees jail time outside of the quick turn around from him turning himself in to bailing back out.
I''d have to agree with Drew Davenport. The guy has a solid track record of predictions on these things. Hell, he's a criminal defense lawyer, not some divorce attorney just chiming in. This is his area if expertise. The charges will likely get pled down. Police reports stated only 4 with minor injuries.
He'll likely get 2-4 games max and we'll be on to the next idiot's public screwup. Kamara was on video beating someone nearly to death and got 3 games. Watson settled a case of over a quarter HUNDRED sexual assault victims and got 11 (and originally was only slated to get 6). History isn't on the side of extensive punishments for these players. The NFL doesn't give a damn about mortality, they do just enough to get people to quit talking about it and keep the profits coming in.
The system isn't fair or equal across the board. Money, power and influence can sway damn near everything to a certain extent. One of my best friends is a former assistant DA in one of the larger cities in the US and he left to do tax law, because of these very types of inequalities.

Yeah. Thanks guy, I didn't mean to go overboard, but clearly my personal experience has shaped my view on this situation, and how I feel about people that do this type of stuff. I will do my best to reel it in from this point forward, and maybe just try and avoid this thread as much as possible.Shcritters wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2024 10:34 amX3

Pour one out for OJ
Re: Rashee Rice or Justyn Ross?
I own Rashee Rice in a league. I hope he gets punished severely. If I could trade him for an early 2nd, I would. In another league I'm in, someone traded Rashee Rice and 3.12 for Darnell Mooney, 2.07, and a 2026 4th. So maybe that's the going rate?
If you have the money to hire a competent attorney, you can really buy your way out of trouble. To be determined in this case...
Also, I hope Ruggs sees nothing but darkness for the rest of his life and or gets used as currency in prison.

Re: Rashee Rice or Justyn Ross?
If Rice gets significant jail time, I think the fact that he is a professional “receiver” will help him make many new friends on the inside… however he may need to work exclusively out of the slot.
