Hey, on the bright side at least he didn't have an illegally possessed firearm

No.  No, 10 grams of weed is not a felony in Texas.  Up to 1oz of weed in Tejas is considered misdemeanor.  10oz of green in Texas yes, felony.  Not 10 grams.... Rashee be smoking that 10 grams in a few hours with his homies.  

Possession it's a misdemeanor.

For sale it's enough to be a felony.

Considering the other circumstances of the incident I bet they could charge him with intent to sell if they wanted to

if he didnt have high powered lawyers that may have happened.   but a lot of times the DA wont press charges against someone who will lawyer up unless you are sure you can make it stick.  once the lawyers get involved there is a large cost to the taxpayer and if that large cost doesnt have a good chance of bringing a conviction why spend the money?

Thats what big money gets you.   perhaps a bit more leniency due to the potential of lawyers getting involved and mucking things up.

I don't see this going to trial since there's so much evidence and he's basically admitted to driving the car.

They will likely charge him with as serious charges as they can so they can plea down to something lesser.

They say he's facing up to 20 years, but that's not gonna happen. I doubt he does any time.

That's definitely not happening. 

He's going to spend some time in jail but probably not much at all. These are still pretty serious charges. It sounds like they already negotiated on the Fleeing charge, unless I missed it. That's the biggy. 

[Ray_T 722]

2 differing opinions.   I bet Polecatt is right.  I bet he doesnt do any time or if he does it will be very minimal.  but it will cost him a pile of cash to keep his hands clean.

GLENN HEIGHTS, Texas -- Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice surrendered to police Thursday on charges including aggravated assault after he and another driver of a speeding sports car allegedly caused a crash involving a half-dozen vehicles on a Dallas highway last month.

A spokeswoman for Rice's attorney, Texas state Sen. Royce West, confirmed to The Associated Press on Thursday evening that Rice turned himself in at the Glenn Heights Police Department. Rice was booked into the regional jail in DeSoto, and West said he was released on bond Thursday night.

In an emailed statement, West emphasized what he called Rice's "continued cooperation with law enforcement."

"Mr. Rice acknowledges his actions and feels deeply for those injured as a result of this accident," the lawyer said.
 

 

Sure he does. POS

He will do ZERO jail time.  Bet.

If his lawyer got the Felony Fleeing thrown out then he probably won't. That is mandatory jail time. That was the big charge.

You are probably right, but it is by no means a given, and I bet Rashee’s lawyer is telling him that too. This whole thing was way too high profile to just sweep under the rug

[polecatt 472]

They're saying he was driving 119 mph

I agree. There's a lot to unpack. 119 MPH, Reckless Driving causing bodily harm, leaving the scene of an accident, etc. 

Nothing would shock me anymore but I can't imagine him not doing ANY jail time. Even if it's just a week. 

[weepaws 3,035]

I wonder what prosecution one would be facing if they were not a football player.

Chiefs receiver Rashee Rice, who already faces eight felony charges for a multi-car crash on March 30, now is being investigated for allegedly hitting a photographer at a night club in Dallas on Monday night, WFAA reports.

According to the TV station, Dallas police are interviewing witnesses after an incident at Lit Kitchen.

Rice’s availability for this season already was in question after he lost control of a Lamborghini while allegedly driving 119 mph and causing a six-vehicle crash on a Dallas highway. Two victims in the crash have filed a civil suit against Rice and suspended SMU cornerback Teddy Knox, who also was speeding in Rice’s Chevrolet Corvette when he also lost control and wrecked.

What a d0uche.  If true, deserves everything he gets.

Another tragic story of wasted potential because of poor decisions.  Put a fork in him, he's done.

It's not looking good Worms. If this story is true then you'd have to imagine that he's done. 

If anything suspend him a year just for being dumb.

Was this Rashee? 

 

 

[JagFan 132]

Rice will be fine.  I’m sure he took full advantage of having his college paid for with an athletic scholarship at SMU, and probably has a degree in a very high paying field to fall back on just like the majority of college athletes being gifted such a golden opportunity to better themselves at institutions of higher learning.  He’s so much more fortunate than those kids that had to take out student loans which will take literally months for our amazing current elected administration to forgive. 

[LaChup 215]

He changed his name to Rashee Race.

[Maximum Overkill 1,472]

He's a dynasty buy low. I'll be trying, hopefully it's a big suspension

Quote

There are certain objective facts, however, that teams became aware of — and that did not come to light publicly before the draft. Those facts could impact the manner in which his current entanglements are handled by the NFL.

Per multiple sources, multiple teams learned during the pre-draft process about an alleged incident involving Rice while he was at SMU. Rice believed former SMU basketball player Kendric Davis was seeing Rice’s girlfriend. Rice and some of his friends, per the specific information gathered by at least one team, went to an SMU basketball game. Rice (or someone with him), per the specific information gathered by at least one team, fired multiple bullets into the empty car belonging to Kendric Davis.

...

The incident could become relevant to the NFL, if/when it imposes discipline on Rice under the Personal Conduct Policy. The policy states that "[p]layers with a prior history of misconduct, including misconduct occurring prior to their association with the NFL, will be subject to enhanced and/or expedited discipline.”

Yeah, I remember when he came out, a lot of teams took him off their boards because of issues at SMU. I can't even imagine some of the shenanigans that they covered up.

sadly this is far too common.   then the player thinks he can do no wrong.   like hes above the law.... then   they give him millions of dollars.

what could possibly go wrong?

[cmh6476 934]

The trial of Rashee Rice for his ongoing legal case has been scheduled for June 2025. The NFL is unlikely to place Rice on paid leave via the commissioner's exempt list, and the league will decide on a potential suspension once the legal process concludes, a source said, allowing him to continue playing in the meantime.

"He was charged with eight felonies, although the case remains open.Those charges are one count of aggravated assault, one count of collision causing serious bodily injury and six counts of collision involving injuries". 

8 Felonies including Aggravated Assault. We'd be sitting in jail right now. The NFL is a joke.

Not trying to downplay the severity of the incident, but from a fantasy perspective does this news adjust your rankings of any chiefs offensive players?

Nope. He's not getting suspended this season.
