Didn’t take ESPN very long to find out that Roethlisberger would not be charged. Here is what they had to say:
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger will not be charged after an investigation into accusations of sexual assault by a 20-year-old woman in Georgia, sources told ESPN.
A source confirmed to ESPN’s Kelly Naqi that District Attorney Fred Bright will announce on Monday that charges will not be brought against Roethlisberger.
If true, Roethlisberger skates on the criminal charge, but what will Roger Goodell do?
That will be the interesting thing to monitor. I want to listen to the reasons why Roethlisberger isn’t charged before I give my opinion on what his punishment should or shouldn’t be.
Nothing is ever as cut and dry as it seems, so I assume more details will come out, giving a clearer picture of what really happened.
Stay tuned.
