Adam Schefter says Dez tape exists

Big Rick in FL : 2/25/2015 1:53 pm
Says he knows what's on it also, but not sure when or if it will be released. At first I didn't believe there was actually a video. Schefter has a ton of sources though. It has to be real. I wonder what is on it and if it is truly 5x worse then the Ray Rice tape.

Sorry busy at work. No link as I read it on Twitter.

and the video was taken by his (former) friends who are shopping it to the highest bidder (including Dez).

Some places claim to have seen screen shots from the video as proof.
I don't see how it doesn't get released

NFL can't afford another witch hunt. Release the tape, give him his punishment, and move on. If it gets leaked before the NFL addresses it, it will be a shitshow.

that still-shots from the video have been sent to various news outlets already with the full video coming later today. so apparently it does exist...

obviously don't want that to come at the expense of another woman getting KO'd, but if its already been done then drop the hammer.

As the Ray Rice video I don't see how the NFL doesn't suspend him for at the very least a year. He's got known domestic violence issues and the backlash from the Rice video was huge.

Rice, Hardy & Peterson essentially were suspended for the year. It was the 1st time the public knew about a Rice DV issue. People will go insane if Dez isn't suspended for just as long.

UConn4523 : 2/25/2015 2:04 pm : link
is domestic violence. Knocking her out or some woman in a store out is infinitely worse. If that is the case, I don't see how he's not out for the year.
The Cowboys

UConn4523 : 2/25/2015 2:09 pm : link
if Schefter knew in September than Dallas definitely knew. They are definitely going to franchise him unless they think he's gone for the whole season. Either way, I don't see a deal getting done unless he takes a massive paycut to make up for the time he will be suspended for.

If true, what a messed up/complex/awesome situation
With the money he's making, he has to shop at Wal-Mart?

A lot of well off shop at Walmart. Groceries, socks, toy department, etc. It's an easy place to get stuff b/c they have everything. They'll likely have a organ section soon.
I don't know judging from his calm and collected demeanor

NFL is in a tough positon  
Gross Blau Oberst : 2/25/2015 2:21 pm : link
At the moment the NFL does not have a credible source or investigative findings to support taking any action.

Meanwhile the public tolerance and opinion for domestic violence does not have to be based on fact, merely suspicion and accusation.

The NFL must have definitive proof to take any action. In the mean time, the NFL will be subject to public outcry for action.

Damned either way.

That would likely be their argument for a reduced suspension. Try to claim that he was young & foolish and has since "grown".

Is that the type of organ section where you can pick up a new liver, or are we talking Hammond B3's? Either way, still not enough to get me into a Walmart.

thinking the same thing: that this video is from a long time ago. If that's the case I don't think the NFL will have any grounds to suspend him, etc.
that's a really long time to hide a tape  
UConn4523 : 2/25/2015 2:28 pm : link
if he was a 1st or 2nd year player i'd believe it, but this has to be something he did as a pro. I don't see how it would take 6+ months if it was at OK State.
would be crazy if video came out after FA begins

No, an actual organ. Kidney, heart, etc. Anything for a buck.

Pets, firearms, dynamite, HCL on the same shelf as nitric acid, etc.

Welcome to Walmart :)

Where are the criminal assault charges if this happened in front of all those people.
C'mon, he doesn't shop at Walmart  
jcn56 : 2/25/2015 2:37 pm : link
that's just where he chooses to beat up on women.
Could this be one big hoax? Hard to believe Sheftie is involved if it  
GiantBlue : 2/25/2015 2:38 pm : link
is.....but this is really, really strange. Working on it since September and no police or NFL investigation? No-one has surfaced to say anything about this- ie. the victim? Was there a pay-off? This is crazy!


If a tape does exist  
bradshaw44 : 2/25/2015 2:39 pm : link
and it's a "random" woman at Wal-Mart, then this isn't domestic violence, it's assault and battery. And depending on when it happened, the statute of limitations may not have expired. Meaning the woman could come forward and send his ass to jail and collect a pretty big payday. Unless she already was bought off.

That's the difference between a credible reporter and a website blogger. He's filtering his information, cross-referencing and double checking his facts and making sure his story is correct as possible before presenting it.

It's probably killed him that he has had to sit on it so long, but he's doing it the right way.
