I’ll hold off on judging any of this but it’s definitely not a good look. Hope it’s not true, not cause of football but it’s just a disgusting thing to happen to anyone. 

This is where I’m at.  I see a lot of Bills fans saying “Duke lacrosse.”  Also a bad look…we don’t know enough to say this a false accusation

Not the same situation but yeah he could be banished from the league.  
 

my point was, he’s not facing criminal charges.  Someone alluded to him going to prison - as of now that’s not on the table

1) If he did it, get rid of him.

2) If he didn't then it's a terrible accusation

3) Let due process run its course.

4) If he did it then he's a POS.

 

All of these are true.

There’s so many crimes. Only thing that saves him is if he wasn’t there.

He was there.

Sounds like the Bills knew about this already…possibly before they cut Haack.  So there’s a possibility they investigated it already and still kept Araizia on the team.  Beane and McDermott aren’t the type that will takes these kind of chances so maybe there’s more to the story.  We don’t know yet

If he knew she was 17, even in a best case scenario he is guilty of statutory rape. I don't think he'll be a Bill much longer, and more importantly I hope the claim is investigated fully and the wrongdoers are punished to the fullest extent of the law.

Sounds like this has been an issue for quite some time. I wonder if the Bills knew about it and if not, why not?

 

If there is any inkling to this being true, get rid of him. Immediately.

 

Don't be Cleveland.

Jesus Christ this is bad. Cops have him on tape admitting to having sex with her. Consent in California is 18 and she was 17. Yikes 

 

The only possible saving grace is if he can reasonably claim that he didn't know her age. A lot of title IX cases involve drunken sex at parties. It's really hard to prove wrongdoing in those cases. Obviously a lot more facts will have to come out before we have any idea what happened here.

That is not a defense. Even if she lied to him.
