It will be the ripple effects of the tape that will likely change things

At this point... Cmon. I don't want it to be true. This isn't a choir boy who finds himself in a gray area. This is a guy skating on thin ice already. Whether he's guilty or not. No doubt whatsoever he still has anger issues. I think anyone defending him at this point is clinging to a thin reality.

This recording really proves nothing except Tyreek has whipped his son with a belt. My Dad whipped my ass with a belt many times. I’m going to need more proof before I jump on the release Tyreek bandwagon.

And yet the DA saw the evidence of abuse and thought a crime was committed.

But everyone can keep acting like getting your ass whipped as a child entitles you to ignore what a DA has labeled abuse.
[Reply]

That was dishonorable for the DA to not cite the statute or ordinance and the mental state required for the "crime"

If he is bound by confidentiality to not cite the statute or ordinance and the mental state, then cowardly claiming "crime" is just race-baiting the portion of the mob that is susceptible to race baiting.

I felt from the beginning the need to have a press conference to announce no charges were being filed was kind of odd. And that it was more of an implication of guilt.

but that's not in my wheel house and could be perfectly normal. :-)

Curious (because I don’t know) but would the police have asked his boy who broke his arm and if the kid said Daddy would they be able to act on that? Not commenting on the case but was interested to know if police actually interview minors in situations like this?
[Reply]

they would have alerted DFS which would have done an investigation and determined if it was just like an injury that a kid got from falling off a bike or a trampoline or something or if there were signs of abuse.

On a related note: DFS removed the child from Hill and his fiancee's custody.

I get that they found evidence that something happened — I’m asking if they will ask the child point blank if one or the other parent abused him?
[Reply]

The police maybe not but DFS would. Maybe not a 3 year old but they would ask age appropriate questions to understand from the child's point of view what happened.

Sometimes you can't ask a child a question directly but you can ask the same question a few different ways to get an answer.


Note I'm not a social worker but my mom was, and worked in the group that did abuse investigation.

Thanks for sharing — it’s appreciated.

Well, after what has most assuredly been a shitty day in which I've questioned the mental capabilities of more than one poster on this forum, I am at last greeted with an unexpected ray of light.

Mr FAX, I may have disagreed with, insulted, and perhaps even said or thought nasty things about you or possibly even your kinfolk in dim times past, but as of today I finally see and understand why you are cherished and held dear around these parts.

I humbly bow in amazement at your courage, and thank God for your wisdom and humor in this darkest of times. I have come from grudging respect, to respect, to absolute admiration and amazement sir. I wish you the greatest of evenings and hereby declare that you are in fact one of The Greatest Posters of Chiefsplanet.

Salute!

If I'm FAX, I'm absolutely mortified with myself right now.
