Beck Water Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 6 minutes ago, 1ManRaid said: Being 17 doesn't automatically make a statutory rape charge stick in California. If she is lying (and I'm not saying she is) about him knowing her age/telling him her age beforehand, that is a defense. I don't think anything "automatically makes a charge stick" anywhere, but according to the attorney interviewed in the clip linked above, not knowing the age of the alleged victim is not apparently a defense.

jkirchofer Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 1 minute ago, Airseven said: Bills said they "conducted a thorough examination." It's highly likely they learned about it after the draft. But I can't imagine they "conducted a thorough examination" only after deciding to cut Haack - and make a public statement claiming such. If they cut Haack, they're comfortable with their assessment. The Buffalo Bills do not have the same resources as a police department. I would like to know how thorough of an investigation they conducted and what their threshold was for keeping him on the roster. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not a bad look. They’re going to release him and move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
What a Tuel Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 Just release him and remove the Buffalo Bills and this distraction from the equation. The civil suit alleges they have a recording of him admitting to statutory rape. We don't need this distraction. She needs justice. Let it sort itself out. Go find a punter/holder. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southern Bills Fan Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 I have to laugh at all the pearl clutchers on here calling for his head before any facts come out. Like no woman has ever made a false accusation before. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the organisation had doubts over Araiza they would not have fit Haack and I refuse to believe the first they heard of this allegation was today. Yeah I agree. If this kid or his agent didn’t give them a heads up he’d already be released. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaCrispy Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 (edited) Silver lining in all of this, though (as bad as it is), if there had to be a player on the team accused of rape, thank God it was the punter, of all positions… Fingers crossed it’s not true though… Edited August 25, 2022 by JaCrispy 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Callahan Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 The fact it's civil and not criminal is telling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndirish1978 Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 The statement the Bills released makes it sound like their investigation determined he is not guilty of the allegation, or else I would suspect the result of the investigation would be his release. They can't make a statement saying they believe him to be innocent because of ongoing litigation. The fact that they say they have already performed an investigation and he is still on the roster should indicate something as far as what they believe to be true.

I won't lose sleep over it as it is far down my list of things that deserve to be outraged over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunnerBill Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 It is obviously a worrying development but he is not charged with anything it is a civil suit we need to let the process play out and not rush to let the court of public opinion decide his fate.
