In other words? Nothing more too see.

In other words? Nothing more too see.

Not for sure, but certainly good news.

That's kind of a big deal because CA is a state where DV is a crime against the state, not the victim (so victims don't have to testify and there are often cases where the victim is opposed to the prosecution. Happens)

As well, if the facts warranted prosecution, especially in CA, you can bet that it would be due to the local pressure.

If he's not prosecuted, it would seem that the facts didn't warrant prosecution. No DA wants to be protested or be branded a Friend of Abusers...

Means that as usual, we cant jump to conclusions and need to wait for all the facts come out. This doesn't exhonerate him either, they clearly want their ducks in a row

 

[blackbart]

Still waiting to see the pictures and hear/read the details before I lean one way or the other.

Wow

Must not be much evidence....He either struck her, or he didn't.

Report: No charges for Rams’ Ethan Westbrooks following arrest
Posted by Curtis Crabtree on March 15, 2017

The Sacramento County District Attorney has declined to file charges against Los Angeles Rams defensive end Ethan Westbrooks pending further investigation according to Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times.

Westbrooks was arrested last week in Sacramento on suspicion of domestic violence after an alleged altercation stemming from a child custody dispute. The victim that placed the call to police had injuries to her upper body. Westbrooks was found later at a different address and taken into custody.

The Rams placed an original round restricted free agent tender on Westbrooks worth $1.797 million last week. Westbrooks appeared in all 16 games for the Rams last season and recorded 24 tackles and two sacks.

Meh... doesn't sound like there is shit in this case. I hate people who stay on their high horse and detest everything before knowing shit.

 

[fearsomefour]

Thank goodness all the usual hysterics were avoided.

 

[StealYoGurley]

Seems to be some confusion out there about if Westbrooks was extended an RFA tender. Does anyone know for sure?
