IMO, all too often people have blinders on when it comes to these situations. If someone commits a crime, and they are good at something, all of a sudden the situation is "different". The list is a long one, when it comes to athletes/actors/celebrities that have been caught on the other side of the law. For some reason just because he can sack a quarterback well, or dunk a basketball like noone else, he is above the law? Society is warped, and some of the people on here fall into that category.

Couple months back Chris Brown(singer) choked his girlfriend until she blacked out, but because the guy can sell his stupid music, its all ok. Do you really think OJ wasnt guilty, or Kobe? Please..........too many people looking through rose colored glasses. It doesnt matter if he is guilty or not, money will get him off. Too bad for Vick he was charged in Virginia, being a commonwealth state, we dont take any crap here.

Why are you trying to compare Chris Brown, Kobe and OJ to Shawn Merriman's incident? Every situation has its on factors and we should not lump him in with those other High Profile Stars. When your in the Media Spot Light no matter how big or small the incident is, its going to be News Worthy. Merriman had other witnesses at his residence who also witnessed the incident . This case isn't going any where, and the victim was highly intoxicated according to SD Sheriff spokesperson.

Maybe you should judge every case on a case by case bases. You sound like a Hater who hates to see people get paid more than you make.
