just finished reading it. marvin harrison needs to be in jail. it will be a travesty if he's allowed in the hall of fame.

[CrustyRedskin]

What does it say? Mu filter wont open it!!!

[BigHairedAristocrat]

it basically says that harrison is a murder, and that he wouldn't have been able to commit murder if the Philly DA had done her job and arrested him for attempted murder when there was a mountain of evidence against him.

we've known marvin harrison was a bad guy for a while now. i had the displeasure if meeting him once in a store. needless to say, not the friendliest person. and after all this crap in philadelphia, really proves what a piece of crap he is.

[SolidSnake84]

Wow.....i still have my doubts but this seems pretty cut and dry

[CrustyRedskin]

What exactly happend during the incident?

[Redskins_P]

Crazy! Who would've thought Marvin Harrison was so gangster. I hope he doesn't get away with this.

If this is proven to be untrue this slander at it's greatest. Why run the risk of printing this that is why you do a exclusive interview on tv you don't print this. Sounds like Mark Price ex-coach of Alabama and SI. Not saying it's not true but it's too much to risk.

He got in a pro-longed argument with a drug dealer from his neighborhood and ended up pulling a gun and firing at the guy in his car a bunch of times during which he accidentally shot a bystander. Police investigated, found the weapon at Harrison's garage, where the incident took place, and Harrison swore it had been in his safe at home until the day the police had shown up. Despite a mountain of evidence and the serious disbelief of the police the DA decided not prosecute. So eventually the guy he shot at sued him in civil court and magically that guy got murdered about a block away from Harrison's bar. Sounds pretty clear that Harrison and/or his proxies perpetrated some serious illegal shenanigans and the DA did nothing.

My respect for Harrison is seriously diminished.

the vast majority of the article comes directly from police reports and comments from public officials. its a matter of public record. i'm not a lawyer but i dont see the potential for slander at all.

good synopsis. on additional piece of evidence: there was a video camera outside harrison's bar that had the entire thing on tape.... except 3 minutes where the shooters face would have been visible... harrison or someone in his employ deliberately erased that portion of the video.

there's a reason no team in the NFL even considered signing harrison after the colts released him... everyone knows he was either directly responsible or complicit in a first-degree murder.

I guess it's easy to understand why Robert Nixon didn't see anything. Wonder if the Police ever questioned him about his reportred version of the story.
