Delete Pacman, Insert Moss

Just as one man is being cleared, another one goes on the hook.

Amazingly, the lawyer in the Pacman Jones warrant case related to an alleged punching at a Georgia strip club has decided to drop the charges. No details on why or what happened, but I don't know if this one passes the smell test. Hopefully this is the last we will hear of Adam (Pacman) Jones having run-ins with the law.

Instead, on Wednesday, a woman placed New England Patriots WR Randy Moss in the hotseat. A woman in Florida is claiming that she was battered by Moss in her home on January 6, and he allegedly refused to get her medical help. The woman sought and received a temporary restraining order (TRO) against Moss requiring him to stay at least 500 feet away from her.



Moss, as you can see above, was very vocal about his innocence. I don't say this often, but even without hearing her side, I would tend to believe him. No charges have yet been pressed. People are speculating that this was a scheme to get money from Moss. Who knows.

Once again, the truth will come out and if this woman is lying, this upsets me. Every false claim makes it that much harder for people who have serious situations to be taken seriously. If the TRO was granted, it's likely that Moss was at least with her or nearby her in some capacity, and while I sincerely hope that Moss is innocent, I also hope she had some basis for the TRO.
