Title: Allen Iverson in Trouble
Post by: themovie on July 10, 2002, 11:03:18 AM
Philadelphia police want to charge Allen Iverson - 76ers superstar, corporate pitchman, and cultural icon to the hip-hop generation - with aggravated assault, a felony, and making terroristic threats while armed.

Police Commissioner Sylvester M. Johnson said last night that investigators would recommend to District Attorney Lynne M. Abraham today that an arrest warrant be issued. The recommended charges stem from a confrontation at the West Philadelphia apartment of Iverson's cousin early last Wednesday when he went in search of his wife, Tawanna.

"The affidavit is going to spell out everything the Police Department knows," Johnson said without going into detail.

How can you say that.  You don't even know the real deal.  Only thing you and most everyone else including me knows about it is what the media portrays, and they usually twist things and don't tell the whole truth.  Don't believe everything you hear.

Prosecutors decide to charge Iverson

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Associated Press


PHILADELPHIA -- Allen Iverson will be charged with assault and other offenses for forcing his way into an apartment with a gun and threatening two men while looking for his wife, authorities said Thursday

The NBA All-Star, no stranger to trouble on and off the court, will be allowed to surrender to police Tuesday morning after his lawyer returns from vacation, police Commissioner Sylvester Johnson said. Iverson must remain inside his suburban Philadelphia mansion until then.

"If Iverson is seen on the street or out partying, we will arrest him,'' Johnson said.

Iverson will be charged with criminal trespass, simple assault, terroristic threats and gun offenses, District Attorney Lynne Abraham said. Four of the counts are felonies, and Iverson faces up to 54 years in prison if convicted of all the charges.


Damn, my boy might get 54 years in prison! Damn! I hope he dont get charged wit this shit!! His ass cant leave his house until Tuesday, if they see him out they gonna arrest him! Damn this is fucked up shit!!!!

Yeah, a "known" defense attorney on ESPN just said that he doubts that he'll even go to trial. Says that at the earlier, it will be more than a year before it would even get there, so it won't affect next season.

True, but he;s been in trouble before. So its more likely to be true.
