Jones felony charges dropped

[grampahol]

I hate to say it, but I do know people who have done far worse things than anything Adam Jones is accused of and are still walking around as free and prosperous citizens. One of my best friends at one time was the size of an NFL lineman and moonlighted as a gang enforcer .. Some of the things I know as fact he got away with should have put him in prison for the rest of his life, but it all fell through the cracks. He died a few years ago from an asthma attack. Jones's antics makes for big headlines and emotional responses, but in a real court of law they fall short of what many people imagine they should. If Jones wasn't an NFL player his story wouldn't so much as make the news much less front page news.  It would be some plea bargain done by the public pretender , he'd probably get a month in jail and probation for a few years .
That's the reality of our criminal justice system.
As it is the team invested millions of dollars for Jones to play corner back,  not to be some upstanding citizen of impeccable credentials.
