The government does still have the burden to prove that they knew [the firearm] was stolen, or should have known. But if they can prove they didn't know, then that's an affirmative defense. The district attorney office here [in Ouachita Parish, Louisiana] is very good about trying to keep somebody from having a felony on their record, so it's imminently possible this could be worked out to either a misdemeanor or possibly a dismissal." http://www.sbnation.com/college-football/2016/5/18/11700092/cam-robinson-arrest-alabama-footballTitle: Re: 2 players arrested Post by: McBaman on May 19, 2016, 08:20:04 AM Somewhat disturbed by response of some teammates.

These guys are making excuses for breaking the law. Whether you agree with the law or not, it's still the law and if you're going to break it, then be prepared to pay a price. CNS said this will be a learning experience for the whole team, and he is evermore right about that. Sounds to me like these guys are in serious legal trouble. I will not be surprised if they have to sit out half the season, maybe all of it. Or they may end up in jail for a while. Like I said earlier, this is not going to end well.
