An investigation by the Minneapolis Star Tribune details some of the unseemly stories of Peterson’s past, including allegations of money raised by his charity foundation never making it to the suggested recipients.

The story spends a great deal of time on the fact Peterson fathered at least six children with six different women. While unfortunate, it’s also not criminal. There was also the salacious bit about one of his relatives paying for hotel rooms for a sex party which involved Peterson and a group of women was paid for with a foundation credit card.

But they also detailed the way his All Day Foundation has filed some contradictory financial reports.

Their 2011 financial report showed $247,064 in total revenue, with just three organizations listed as receiving money. A fourth outlay, entitled simply “clothing for needy families,” said “unknown” for the number of recipients.

Their 2009 report said its largest gift of $70,000 went to Straight From the Heart Ministries in Laurel, Md. But Donna Farley, president of the organization, said it never received any money from Peterson’s foundation. “There have been no outside [contributions] other than people in my own circle,” Farley said. “Adrian Peterson — definitely not.”

The 2009 tax filing also listed a donation to a food bank in Dallas, but that group said it hadn’t received any money from Peterson.

So while the charges of abusing his 4-year-old son might have been the thing that got the league to effectively suspend one of its brightest stars, it might only be the tip of the iceberg.

And when the rest of those foo's can't remember their last name Dee Ford will be giving power inspirational speeches about how he eventually conquered is fear of the color gold.
