Francisco Rodriguez Officially Charged With Criminal Contempt; Released On Bail
Mets closer Francisco Rodriguez was charged Wednesday with seven counts of criminal contempt for sending his girlfriend dozens of text messages begging for forgiveness, violating a restraining order issued after he was accused of attacking her father at Citi Field.
Rodriguez paid bail and left without comment. A new restraining order, effective through at least next February, was issued to protect Rodriguez’s girlfriend and family from further contact.
