Ray Rice Released, Suspended
Here’s a sampling.
Warning: this is graphic, disturbing. RT @TMZ: Ray Rice -- ELEVATOR KNOCKOUT ... Fiancee Takes Crushing Punch (Video) http://t.co/va8ljn7djX
— Cindy Boren (@CindyBoren) September 8, 2014 Just saw the Ray Rice video and now I feel sick.
— Caitlin Kelly (@atotalmonet) September 8, 2014 At what part of that attack (because how else to describe it) does the criminal justice system think "Oh, pretrial diversion program"?
— Caitlin Kelly (@atotalmonet) September 8, 2014 The elevator knockout punch from Ray Rice is beyond disturbing and stomach turning. http://t.co/Ok0jmK6wUW
— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) September 8, 2014 My source in February who told me they had watched that Ray Rice elevator video said then, "It's bad... He's going to jail."
— Robert Klemko (@RobertKlemko) September 8, 2014 i am kinda curious what that video showed people that they didn’t already assume was the case, though.
— Bomani Jones (@bomani_jones) September 8, 2014 The new video brings up a lot of questions.
Did Roger Goodell watch this video of Ray Rice knocking out his wife before giving Rice a 2-game suspension? Really? http://t.co/n7wML7uUXY
— Don Van Natta Jr. (@DVNJr) September 8, 2014 Another great question in the wake of Ray Rice tape: why didn't prosecutors go forward with the assault case? Got pretrial diversionary.
— Jane McManus (@janesports) September 8, 2014 If this Ray Rice video had been revealed at this time yesterday, would it have been discussed at all on the NFL studio shows?
— Chad Finn (@GlobeChadFinn) September 8, 2014 One question, in particular, is about passing the video around in the first place.
I'm not ok with release of the video bc you know it didn't come with her consent and could possibly put her in more danger.
— Jessica W. Luther (@scATX) September 8, 2014 That it takes THAT video and not the aftermath video (or the grand jury charge) to see the crime for what it was says a lot.
— Jessica W. Luther (@scATX) September 8, 2014 We chirped over release of nudes of white movie star and are passing around video of beating of black woman...we need to talk about consent.
— Jessica W. Luther (@scATX) September 8, 2014 And much of the reaction centered around the length of Rice’s suspension.
This is what a two game suspension looks like?! http://t.co/Gx5FbNqQ5p Sickening, Ray Rice. Sickening, NFL.
— Stephanie Haberman (@StephLauren) September 8, 2014 One other thought on the Ray Rice video: If Rice did that on the field, to an opponent in between plays, he'd surely get more than 2 games.
— Sam Borden (@SamBorden) September 8, 2014 I don't know who is more gutless -- Roger Goodell, the Ravens or law enforcement. Ray Rice shouldn't be playing at all this season.
— Jemele Hill (@jemelehill) September 8, 2014 The final word, for now.
It looks like National Jump to Conclusions Week will be superseded by National Justifiable Contempt for Ray Rice Week.
