Ray Lewis calls it a career

[EKnight]

It doesn't matter what I think. If someone is acquitted of a crime, they're acquitted. It's why we have a legal system. i suppose you favor a system in which everyone who was ever accused of something was automatically guilty without trial?

And in this case of Lewis, there wasn't even enough evidence to charge him with murder. He didn't "plead down" from a murder charge, because there was no charge to plead down from. So how is he "guilty" of someone else's alleged actions? -EK

Exactly.  The evidence provided only places him at the crime scene.  It doesn't prove he did it.  In fact, it proved that he didn't do it.  Therefore, if he doesn't tell what he knows, he is guilty of obstructing justice, but not of murder.

^^^ So your okay with him helping to cover up two murders committed by his friends, in his presence.  NICE.

What did he do to "cover it up?" Just because you believe this happened and keep making that claim does not mean it's true. -EK

Doesn't make him a murderer.  That's pretty clear.  Even if he did what you say, he is still not a murderer.  Accessory maybe, but to be a "murderer" you have to kill someone.

^^^ Not always true.  If you are with someone in commission of a felony, and someone is killed, you can be convicted of murder even if you are not the one that physically commits the act of killing.

Provided the getaway vehicle, destroyed evidence (his clothes), was present when evidence was discarded, stonewalled police and prosecutors.  I'm not making this stuff up, a simple google search will provide you with scores of newpaper articles.  The fact he paid off the victims' families is well known.

Provided a getaway vehicle? You mean the car they were travelling in to begin with? Destroyed his clothes? Proof or is that what the media is claiming? Fulton County District Attorney Paul Howard alleged the blood-stained suit was dumped in a garbage bin outside a fast food restaurant, but since he had no proof of this, it's not a fact. Yes, he gave inaccurate info to police. That's what he was charged with and found guilty of. That's hardly "covering up" something. You keep mentioning that he gave money to the victims' families as if that's proof of guilt. I have no idea how much you know about Lewis's spirituality and charity work, but if you're familiar with it at all, it's not unreasonable that he simply felt bad for the families that his associates had a hand in their death and wanted to do the right thing. When a whole group of people get into a brawl- which is what happened- and someone ends up dead, you have no way of knowing who did it, whether it was self-defense, or how it even happened. -EK
