NFL Players arrest thread

Marcellus Wiley is back in the news for all the wrong reasons.


The former Buffalo Bills, Los Angeles Chargers, Dallas Cowboys and Jacksonville Jaguars superstar is facing more accusations of rape. This time, it comes from two women who are accusing him of sexual assault in separate incidents from all the way back in 1994.

At the time, Wiley was playing football as a linebacker and defensive end for Columbia University. The incidents allegedly took place in his dorm room.

According to the NY Post, the first accuser claims she was pressured to sleep with Wiley after accepting an invite to his dorm room on October 27, 1994. The lawsuit claims the woman, who is identified as Jane Doe, “repeatedly” told Wiley to stop, but he told her she was “too uptight and needed to relax.” Wiley then apparently turned up the stereo and aggressively moved in on her.


“Wiley then swung [her] legs on the bed, lunged towards her and overpowered [her],” holding her down as he whispered to her “to relax, enjoy it, stop crying, and stop fighting the feeling,” she claimed in the filing.

The woman claims she tried filing a report with a Columbia University administrator, but was urged not to follow through with it because she “would be known as the girl who destroyed a black man’s NFL dream.”



This Is Not The First Time Wiley’s Been Accused Of Rape​

Sadly, this is nothing new for Wiley, who was previously accused of sexual assault by another Columbia student. That lawsuit was filed back in 2023, with the incident also taking place in 1994.

That victim claims Wiley took her virginity while raping her in his dorm room. She revealed that the incident caused severe trauma, causing her severe emotional distress to the point where she attempted to take her own life.


Wiley denied those allegations, calling them “B.S.” at the time. He has yet to issue a statement regarding the latest disturbing claims against him.

Marcellus is currently married to his wife and former ‘Real Housewives of Beverley Hills” star Annemarie. The couple share a son and two daughters, while also caring for Marcellus’ daughter from a previous relationship.
 
Pat Mahomes Sr., the former MLB pitcher and father of Kansas City Chiefs star quarterback Patrick Mahomes, wants to attend an event badly.


Mahomes Sr. is seeking legal permission to travel for a sports card convention next month.

According to TMZ Sports, Mahomes hopes to attend a sports card convention in Minnesota from April 12 to 13. However, due to his ongoing probation following a DUI conviction, a Texas judge is currently reviewing his request.

Mahomes Sr. has to go this route after pleading guilty to driving while intoxicated last year.

TMZ Sports added that if Pat Mahomes Sr. is allowed to attend this convention, he’ll need to abide by the probation rules.

Patrick Mahomes’ father, Mahomes Sr., has often been on the wrong side of the law.

It started in the 1990s when he was charged with an adult misdemeanor. Early in the 2000s, he committed a criminal non-traffic offense.

In 2008, he would have a DWI charge in South Dakota and then a similar one in 2019 in Smith County, Texas.

He faced the same charge twice in 2018, per Us Weekly.

His most notable arrest was in 2024, just eight days before his son and the Kansas City Chiefs’ scheduled Super Bowl game against the San Francisco 49ers.
 
Former Michigan co-offensive coordinator Matt Weiss is facing over 20 federal charges for allegedly hacking into the accounts of thousands of college athletes and students across the country to access their “personal, intimate digital photographs and videos” while he was employed by the school.

Weiss was fired in January of 2023 for alleged computer access crimes and the FBI was confirmed to be involved in an investigation into the allegations in October of that year. Thursday, the United States Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Michigan announced that Weiss had been charged with 14 counts of unauthorized access to computers and 10 counts of aggravated identity theft.

Before working at Michigan under former coach Jim Harbaugh for two seasons, Weiss worked for the Baltimore Ravens under Harbaugh's brother, John. According to federal prosecutors, Weiss began illegally accessing accounts when he was with the Ravens.




“According to the indictment, between approximately 2015 and January 2023, Weiss gained unauthorized access to student-athlete databases of more than 100 colleges and universities that were maintained by a third-party vendor,” a statement from United States Attorney Julie Beck said. “After gaining access to these databases, Weiss downloaded the personally identifiable information and medical data of more than 150,000 athletes. Using the information that he obtained from the student-athlete databases and his own internet research, Weiss was able to obtain access to the social media, email and/or cloud storage accounts of more than 2,000 target athletes. Weiss also illegally obtained access to the social media, email and/or cloud storage accounts of more than 1,300 additional students and/or alumni from universities across the country.”
“Once Weiss obtained access to these accounts, he downloaded personal, intimate digital photographs and videos that were never intended to be shared beyond intimate partners.”
According to the indictment, Weiss targeted female athletes and “researched and targeted these women based on their school affiliation, athletic history, and physical characteristics.”

He’s accused of keeping notes about physical appearances and characteristics of the women whose accounts he accessed and downloaded the passwords they used for their accounts through a third-party vendor. He’s even accused of researching personal information like mother’s maiden names, pets and dates of birth for some women so that he could guess or reset their passwords to personal accounts.




The indictment also accuses Weiss of repeatedly accessing some accounts months or years after he first gained access to look for new photos and videos.

Weiss was placed on leave after he was accused of illegal activities at Michigan’s Schembechler Hall football facility in December of 2022. He was fired after he didn’t attend a meeting with school officials regarding the allegations.

“After a review of university policies, the athletic department has terminated the appointment of co-offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach Matt Weiss,” a statement from Michigan athletic director Warde Manuel said at the time of Weiss' firing. “Consistent with university policy, we will have no further comment on this personnel matter.”
 
Former NFL player LeShon Eugene Johnson is in some serious trouble once again.


The Haskell-native is facing dog fighting related charges again for the second time in his life. He has been charged in federal court for operating a “large-scale” dog fighting and trafficking operation in Broken Arrow.

The U.S. Department of Justice said Leshon Eugene Johnson appeared in court last week and was charged with possession of 190 pit bull dogs used for an “animal fighting venture and for selling, transporting, and delivering a dog for use in an animal fighting venture.”

He was indicted by a grand jury in the Eastern District of Oklahoma for violations of dog fighting prohibitions of the federal Animal Welfare Act.

The DOJ said federal authorities seized 190 dogs from Johnson in October 2024 as this is believed to be the most dogs ever seized from a single person in a federal dog fighting case.


Johnson stands accused of running a dog fighting operation called “Mal Kant Kennels” in Broken Arrow and Haskell.

He previously ran Krazyside Kennels, which led to his 2004 guilty plea on state animal fighting charges.

If convicted, LeShon Eugene Johnson faces a maximum penalty of five years in prison and a $250,000 fine on each count.
