defense would carry much weight: Under 18 U.S. Code § 875 (d), it is a federal crime to extort “any money or other thing of valu Antworten

Longtime NFL defensive tackle Roy Miller said he did nothing wrong after being charged with child abuse Khalen Saunders Kansas City Chiefs Jerseys , and his lawyer said it was a byproduct of a messy divorce.Miller was released on his own recognizance yesterday, after being charged with a misdemeanor charge of child abuse with a personal or special weapon.Upon his release from jail after 14 hours, he told WJXT there was nothing to see.“Everybody’s fine,” Miller said. “I’m not guilty. . . . I have nothing else to say.”His attorney, Ashley Wells Cox, did.“Mr. Miller did not commit child abuse Kansas City Chiefs Jerseys 2019 ,” a statement read. “He has been involved in a difficult and contentious divorce. We are concerned that Mrs. Miller uses any opportunity to gain leverage in that case, and it is equally disappointing that a parent can be arrested for a felony for a bruise on the buttocks of someone’s own child.”Miller retired from the NFL after he was arrested on domestic violence charges in 2017, and was subsequently released by the Chiefs. He completed a pre-trial diversion program, his wife filed for divorce, and filed for a protective order. He accused her of ruining his career.Miller also played for the Buccaneers and Jaguars during a nine-year NFL career. More information has emerged about the allegations made against Kansas City Chiefs safety Tyrann Mathieu during Wednesday’s bond revocation hearing for Geourvon Keinell Sears.Here’s what we knowS..."WhiteSeries Stagner ThingsLottery Tickets ’19Summer of SpagsMailbagFanposts Fanshots Community Community GuidelinesContactAbout StubHub ✕The latest in the extortion case involving Tyrann Mathieu New,23commentsCDTShareTweetShareShareThe latest in the extortion case involving Tyrann Mathieu Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY SportsMore information has emerged about the allegations made against Kansas City Chiefs safety Tyrann Mathieu during Wednesday’s bond revocation hearing for Geourvon Keinell Sears.Here’s what we knowSears Khalen Saunders black jersey , 21, is Mathieu’s cousin. He is under federal indictment for attempting to extort more than $1 million from Mathieu to prevent Sears from publicly releasing allegations of sexual misconduct against Mathieu. Court documents in the case allege that Sears contacted Mathieu by phone and text, demanding amounts ranging from $1.5 million to $5 million for his silence.Sears is also accused of making threats against Mathieu’s family in those communications.Sears was originally released on $25,000 bond after his arrest earlier this week, but it was revoked after Wednesday’s hearing revealed he had removed the ankle monitor he was required to wear while free on bond.During that hearing, Sears’ attorneys Claude Kelly and Celia Rhoads presented testimony from two witnesses — Sears’ brother George and his mother Toya Robinson — alleging that Mathieu had made threats against them via text and social media as well.While the communications that resulted in the charges against Sears are not part of the public record Khalen Saunders Jersey Mens , the messages Sears’ family say contained threats against them are available.They were published by The New Orleans Advocate on Thursday. The messages are the basis for the family’s claim on Wednesday that Mathieu had threatened them. According to reporting from New Orleans television station WDSU, Sears’ family testified in the bond revocation hearing that Sears’ actions were in response to the threats from Mathieu they believed were contained in these messages.The Advocate story speculated that the messages presented in court may represent a preview of the defense Sears might offer when and if the case comes to trial; Sears has not yet made a plea in the charge against him.Under the federal statute for extortion, it’s unclear such a defense would carry much weight: Under 18 U.S. Code § 875 (d), it is a federal crime to extort “any money or other thing of value“ to prevent “any threat to injure the property or reputation” of another via interstate commerce — in this case, a cell phone. If the Sears family believed Mathieu had threatened them, they could have gone to the authorities themselves — rather than commit another crime.Under the same section of the U.S. Code Khalen Saunders Jersey nfl draft , even the threat to injure another person via interstate communication is also a crime.In conclusionMathieu’s agent Denise White released a statement describing the matter as a “very private and personal family issue,” saying that Mathieu was “dealing with a family member who is dealing with a mental health issue.”Sears’ attorney said in court on Wednesday that Geourvon and George Sears lived with Mathieu during the time he played for the Arizona Cardinals from 2013 through 2017, but moved back to New Orleans when Mathieu went to the Houston Texans in 2018.Mathieu’s attorney Scott Rosenblum released a statement saying, “Once Mr. Mathieu decided to stop assisting these individuals financially, they turned to harassment, slander and extortion to gain financially.”It remains to be seen if this is a case where an actual crime has been committed Eric Murray Jersey , or if it is simply a sad example of a family dispute over money that went horribly off the rails.Sears’ next court appearance is scheduled for June 21.
