November 8, 200718 yr When i worked at a restraunt the same stuff happend every once in a while. You didnt see anybody on the news. The media blows this up like it is a HUGE deal. Yes we know he is a punk, and this shouldnt have happend, but Im sick of WKRC's breaking news. Its not just this, other pointless stuff they put on there for breaking news, but this isnt the politics thread. You are correct - the media does blow thing's up. This would not be new's worthy if I didn't pay my parking fee. I'd just be in trouble.
November 8, 200718 yr ESPN.coms story... Reinstated Bengals' Henry allegedly in altercation http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3099320 CINCINNATI -- Receiver Chris Henry was allegedly involved in an altercation with a parking attendant on the eve of rejoining the Cincinnati Bengals from his eight-game suspension. Henry practiced with the Bengals on Wednesday and will be eligible to play Sunday in Baltimore. Commissioner Roger Goodell suspended him for the first half of the season for repeatedly violating the NFL's conduct policy. The third-year receiver stayed out of trouble during the suspension and was allowed to practice with the team for the last two weeks. He sat out a 33-21 loss in Buffalo on Sunday that dropped his last-place team to 2-6. On Tuesday night, police in Newport, Ky., a suburb on the other side of the Ohio River within view of Paul Brown Stadium, were called to an entertainment district following a dispute over a parking fee. A parking attendant told police that Henry and another man parked their sport utility vehicle without paying. According to an incident report, the attendant said Henry argued loudly with him and said, "Don't you know who I am?" ... Asked what he learned during his suspension, Henry said, "I've been sitting back and going through this little stuff, my little suspension or whatever, and I've had a lot of time to sit down and think about everything. I'll be back out here giving it my all."
November 8, 200718 yr I don't believe it! I smell something wrong here, just as he was supposedly accuses of hitting a kid in Florence a few months ago. People just targeting him. I wonder how much the valet thought he delivered for the tip which Henry didn't give him to accuse him of this stuff. Hmmm
November 8, 200718 yr Thank God he didn't pay the 5 dollars to park. He might've gone broke... He's gonna need all the money he has in his savings if this amounts to anything.
November 8, 200718 yr I liked how the ESPN article called Newport a suburb on the other side of the river, within view of Paul Brown stadium. Suburb?
November 8, 200718 yr I liked how the ESPN article called Newport a suburb on the other side of the river, within view of Paul Brown stadium. Suburb? Newport always struck me as being pretty darned urban.
November 8, 200718 yr I'd imagine there would be some security video on this. Big Brother is usually watching.

November 8, 200718 yr On the news this morning they said the valet plans on pressing all charges that he can on Henry. This doesn't pass the smell test with me right now. Could someone have seen a lot of $$$$$ out of this? Possibly.

I wonder how much the valet thought he delivered for the tip which Henry didn't give him to accuse him of this stuff. Hmmm There is a lot more to the one in Florence than was ever released to the public. It was an on-going joke of sorts around the PD that by the nature of our job (being professionals) we actually shielded Henry from a lot of bad press. I agree he got a raw deal on the accusation but there was plenty that went on that would have made Henry look terrible (but it wasn't criminal) so we sat on it. I have said this before and I will say it again, for every "incident" that is released to the public I would argue there are two more the public never hears about.

Could someone have seen a lot of $$$$$ out of this? Possibly. It will be interesting to see if the Campbell County Attorney's Office will accept the complaint and file the charges against Henry. In other words, the valet can "press" all he wants, it is up to an elected official to decide if the complaint goes anywhere.
