Mo Washington seems to be in trouble

As unfortunate as it is (If true), why do these type of things always happen to the star players?!?! Why can't it be the back up punter or someone like that.

 

Wtf!

 

This is terrible.

I don’t think there is any way that he’s still on the team after this.

 

Yeah this is really bad, if true.

 

What is the story? Like, some little kid or like an ex?

 

So let me get this straight. When he was a freshman in high school (maybe 15 years old/16 tops) he dated a chick and had video?? And supposedly kept it till he was a freshman in college (3/4 years later) and sent it back to her?? I’m beyond lost here.

 

Ex Girlfriend
“San Jose native Maurice Washington III did not record the video and is not part of the alleged assault involving his ex-girlfriend and two former classmates. But Washington is accused of keeping the video on his phone and sending it to the victim last March, along with the message, “Remember this hoe [sic].”

 

Nope, sounds like you pretty much have it.

 

This is not good. Hope it is untrue.

 

He didn't make it or wasnt in it. He just had on phone and forwarded it?? And??

 

Sounds like you summed it up pretty well. If this is true, he is in a heap of trouble. Not very smart...

 

Doesn’t the article say the school knew about the allegations before last season started?

 

University was made known about this last fall. I guess we will see if he gets in any legal trouble but if not I would not expect him to be released from his scholarship being that he played all of last fall.

 

She was 15. That's distribution of child porn.

 

Sounds like a LOT of stretching there. I’ll definitely shut up on this one till I see how it plays out. Holding a video that you didn’t make, didn’t have anything to do with or a part of but sent it back 4 plus years later. Yep, I’ll stay out of this till I see how it plays out.

 

What disturbing is he sent it to her in the first place after 3 or 4 years later
Instead of getting rid of it..

 

It is technically child porn if she was 15. And he sent it with a message of 'remember this hoe?' Which could be construed as revenge porn or a threat. And again, it is porn of an under aged girl.

 

Can't fix stupid.

 

Right, with another 15/16 year old kid. It was held onto for 4 years and sent back. The child thing is getting twisted around a bit.

 

I think revenge porn is a misdemeanor charge, but the distribution of child pornography is a felony.

What a horrible thing to do.

 

He probably made an honest mistake and accidentally sent the wrong file attachment to the wrong person. If true, than he's toast.

 

A star running back facing criminal charges yet still allowed to play....we really are bringing the 90s back.

 

I wonder (and I know that it is not this case) what laws will be written in the future when it comes to HS students (if you have a HS daughter, god help you) sending naked selfies to other high school boys.

 

Does this mean we go after Bivens again?

 

I don’t see Frost being ok with this and playing Washington still. There is obviously more to it. His biggest mistake was sending it back to her 4 years later (or how ever long it was). This is definitely my last post on this subject till it plays out. There is definitely more to this that we aren’t hearing about.

 

So was Mo still pissed at her thinking she willfully had sex with these 2 other kids? I would think the video evidence would show whether she was actually raped. Not saying it's right that he kept video and threw it back in her face but this seems like it would be hard to actually convict him. Weird deal

 

It isn't bad when he was 16 and had it. It is bad when he is 18/19 and has it. You have delete that stuff. But that isn't near the issue of texting the video and saying, 'remember this hoe?' That is much worse than a 16 year old having a video of his girlfriend.

 

Really, your asking this, he isn’t dismissed from the team up to this point..

 

Looks like he now has a criminal defense attorney who will take the matter seriously, which is what he needed in the first place.

 

Is it distribution if you send it to the person who is in it. Also he sent it to her in reference to her reaching out to him. He’s getting charges against him, yet nothing is being pursued against the men in the video. Is it possible that it was consensual and she was embarrassed when everyone found out about it. Hard to believe that a commonly known video of a rape circulated amongst students and nothing was done. Sounds like there was some sour grapes on both sides. He’s still a kid too. I don’t see this going where several on here think it’s going. I doubt he’s going anywhere.

 

Again, can't fix stupid. He's a football player at Nebraska. Why is he doing this type of stuff? Girls on campus should come easy to him..

 

The kids in the video already received probation for distributing the video.

 

Doesn't really matter. Just having it could be construed as a felony. I don't know if his age of being over 18 even factors in to it.

 

He gone.

 

He gone.

 

This to me doesn't sound like a felony or kick off the team offense. Sounds like a dumb move, probation and keep out of trouble or you're gone offense. JMO

 

He sent it last March before he was on campus and when he was still a minor I believe.

 

Will be interesting to see the precedent this type of thing sets. Unfortunately, you don’t have to be smart to be fast.

 

Want to put a wager on that? Did some if you even read the article or just the title?
