Roethlisberger understanding the seriousness of the accusations against him has hired defense attorney Ed Garland.
You may remember Garland as the man who represented Ray Lewis in his double murder trial. Garland was able to get a plea deal for Lewis that got the most serious charges dropped (Lewis ended up admitting to Obstruction of Justice).
The investigation is still on going. Roethlisberger is currently in Pittsburgh now and there is no word if he would be summoned back to Georgia for a second interview with authorities.
Hat tip to ProFootballTalk.com the only media source who is reporting this fairly and from an unbiased perspective.
Want to remind people that Roethlisberger is innocent until proven guilty. Right now the only thing he is guilty of is being very dumb in putting himself in a bad situation. Until more information comes out that should be the only thing people should be accusing him of.
