It was only a matter of time before this happened. A new report indicates that a Dallas County grand jury has indicted Johnny Manziel on charges he assaulted his ex-girlfriend. The grand jury reviewed evidence in the case last Thursday. From CBSDFW.COM:
According to police records, Crowley tried to jump out of the moving car and get to safety, but Manziel stopped, dragged her back into the car and hit her. Crowley told the valet at Hotel Zaza, “Please don’t let him take me,” according to her police report, “I’m scared for my life!” Instead of arresting Manziel, officials with the Dallas Police Department decided to present evidence to the grand jury to decide if they should pursue a misdemeanor case. Sources also said there was an out-of-court civil settlement between Manziel and Crowley over the issue. But at this time there isn’t any indication what the settlement may be.”
Manziel has been in and out of trouble throughout the last year. He’s been boozing heavily and just last week, Manziel was dropped by agent Drew Rosenhaus.
In a statement to ESPN, after being dropped by Rosenhaus, Manziel stated the following:
I’m hoping to take care of the issues in front of me right now, so I can focus on what I have to do if I want to play in 2016. I also continue to be thankful to those who really know me and support me.”
The kid needs help and I hope he gets it.
