Larry Johnson: "I'm going to kill your boyfriend."

by Chris on Oct 20, 2008 4:12 PM CDT in 2008 Campaign Comment 83 comments

Larry Johnson allegedly said those words to the woman who filed the police report about the recent incident that's been widely reported. H/T to KMBC for the incident report (Click the image for a larger version and click here for the PDF version of the police report).

Excerpt:

On 10-14-2008 at approximately 2154 hrs the listed Victim responded to Center Patrol Station in regard to reporting an assault which occurred on 10-10-2008 at approximately 0215 hours.

...

The listed Victim stated the Suspect [Larry Johnson] then laughed and stated "All I wanted to tell you is I'm going to kill your boyfriend."

The story doesn't end there. Larry Johnson says he's "going to kill" the boyfriend because the victim had "been talking." After that threat was made, apparently Larry Johnson spit a drink in the victim's face and his bodyguards escorted her outside. When Larry Johnson was walking to his vehicle, the report states that he then tried to spit on the victim three more times.

If this is true, if it is, this is truly despicable behavior by a Kansas City Chiefs player who has had "similar" issues reported in the past.

For so long, people claimed Larry Johnson was a bad apple without much evidence and now it's tough to disagree with those accusations if this recent incident report turns out to be, for the most part, true.

Terrible judgement by a player who is becoming more reckless by the week, in his words and his actions.

Wow, just wow

Great find Chris.

Can’t believe a professional athlete doesn’t know how to act in public. If this is all true, especially with the reports coming out about this being the second incident this year and fourth overall, I would be amazed if Goddell doesn’t step in and slap a heavy suspension on him.

Alleged Incidents

Coming from a Broncos fan, there weren’t any charges filed in Brandon Marshall’s cases (at least three of them) and Goodell initially suspended him for three games with the possibility of reducing it to two games if Brandon followed the rules of the suspension and attending league appointed counseling.

Marshall was able to get the suspension reduced to a single game (with two games pay forfeited) because he (and Rod Smith) were able to convince the appeals board that he learned his mistakes and was going to straighten up and fly right.

My point being, despite LJ having several alleged incidents doesn’t absolve him from getting punished by Goodell.

Nobody

People who cannot handle their alcohol should not drink in public. Hell, they shouldn’t drink at all ! Do you think Larry can handle his alcohol? (sarcastiscally speaking)

The good thing about this is that Larry never did step up to be a team leader. It would have been worst on the young team members if he had. As it is, it’s bad enough.

Calling The Victim Personally

And backing her story in court if charges are pressed are two different things. Club owners enjoy having celebrities come into their establishments because it helps business…even if Johnson was a problem, they don’t necessarily want to do anything that might drive other Chiefs players away.

If He Screws Up That Much

He’ll have bigger problems than what he’s got now…Goodell has been very consistent in cracking down on this sort of behavior with suspensions. And teams have no interest in adding more baggage unless they’re completely desperate. Also, if he was making threats and engages in behavior that violates his contract, he could end up being forced to repay guaranteed money.

Plus, if Johnson were to get cut, his reported history of negative behavior this season towards the coaching staff and team in general is going to severely hurt his ability to find another job. So I doubt it’s a gambit. I think Johnson’s just a moron.

He Was A Young Guy Who Made A Few Mistakes

And he seems to have overcome them. He can’t really be equated with Henry, Vick, Johnson, and Jones who’ve screwed up repeatedly well past the age where it could be described as youthful indiscretion or who’ve done things that can’t really be pawned off on “being young”.

T.O. probably falls into a different camp since he’s generally stayed out of trouble off the field except for that overdose (which may very well have been accidental). But I don’t have a problem with him being on the list because he’s a team-killing cancer who’s only been quiet in Dallas because they let him do whatever he wants (even if it hurts the team).

Look at how many chances Pac-Man has gotten. Plus, Herm (being the “player’s coach”) that he is, he won’t cut him. He’ll probably let him serve his suspension and learn from it. I don’t think L.J. has ever had to deal with the league to this degree. I mean, I know he got fined for pulling Troy Palamalu up by the hair, but this is huge… Hopefully he learns his lesson and seeks to redeem himself.

LJ is plain ol’ trash. There is NO excuse for his behavior and unfortunately, I know of other incidents that didn’t get reported either.

I saw him early on the night that this happened and he was hammered drunk and talking crap to everyone that would listen to him. I promptly got my drink and went the other direction to avoid his sad display. Not only did he have the problem reported but he was talking crap to another friend of mine who left the club rather than be around his behavior.

Just drop him…no one like that is worth having on a team no matter how good they are!

Why not cut LJ now?

We have approx $40M in cap space this year that is not going to be used. We will surely have a lot of cap room next year.

We absorb the hit with no consequence this year, are able to function normally under the cap next year, we cut LJ, and we don’t wait until we are competitive and need every dime of the cap.

DO IT NOW…please.

The hit would come in 2009

And it would be around $16 million. That would be like 15% of our total cap space on a player that isn’t on the team. Let’s run his ass into the ground so he can’t get another job.

I like that idea… As a matter of fact, we kinda have a situation where we don’t really have a qb. Larry complained he wasn’t getting the ball enough why don’t we cut everything out of the playbook and and every play we hand it of to Larry and run him to to the right side every play.

In any case, LJ has two options….make a complete turnaround(ala Brandon Marshall) or continue being a crazy abusive loser. BMarsh is young and impressionable and is surrounded by the right people….LJ is a veteran and less likely to be guided by other veterans. My take, LJ is just an a-hole and will never change.

Another difference….BMarsh dropped the crazy girlfriend that was causing all of this problems…LJ stalks his ex girlfriend and threatens to kill the boyfriend. Good luck Chiefs fans…lose LJ, keep Gonzalez. I can’t believe your coach tried to trade him…he’s only 32!! Shannon Sharpe was effective until he was at least 35. It just feels like the Chiefs organization wants to stay bad for at least 5-6 years….that is Raider-like, not Chief-like. Come on!

He did smack her, but she also smack him.

If you know as much about the reports as I do, you’ll realize that his girlfriend was crazy nuts who had known BMarsh since 8th grade and knew all the right buttons to push to piss him off. BMarsh has NOT gotten into trouble with the law since he dropped her once and for all. That to me is the important thing…when he served his suspension he moved into Jay Cutler’s basement and stayed at his house for the duration of the suspension. From my perspective, BMarsh has done all the right things to become the player he wanted to become. LJ….I just don’t think he is essentially a good person like BMarsh is…therefore I don’t see LJ changing into a better person down the road.

The Chiefs won’t be losing much by dumping him…though I think it would be a mistake for Herm the Germ to get rid of Tony Gonzalez.
