So, if I'm reading this right, you're saying that half the world's wealth being in the hands of 1% of the population is a bad thing?

Why does it matter as long as they earned it?

Nope.

Exactly.

Libtards think it's supposed to be redistributed.

Sounds like it could be a while before we see Deionte Thompson back with the Tide based on new information.

Anniston Star is reporting that a video exists of Thompson kicking the victim.

He'll be done if this is true, and rightfully so. Folks will never learn, never freaking learn.

The collateral damage described to the guy's face was hideous and beyond a human thing to do. Not hard to see some jail time out of this.

So hard to understand....so much talent...and risking it.....
Much like the dirt bag running back for Oklahoma

 

[UAgrad93]

Do stupid things, win stupid prizes!! I hope that the video exonerates him, but if it incriminates him in any way, BYE!! Coach Saban's hands are tied on this one!!

 

[rolltide66]

Mr Thompson where did you go to school?
TPI
TCU?
No, TPI - - Texas Penal Institute!!!
All kidding aside, hope the video(s) sure there are many show he was not the one... and he was in the wrong place at the wrong time... and he can get on with his life, having learned a hard life lesson. But, if wishes were wings....

Alabama coach Nick Saban says safety Deionte Thompson is back on campus, cooperating with police


University of AlabamasafetyDeionte Thompsonis back on campus and cooperating with law enforcement after his arrest for felony aggravated assault, coach Nick Saban told reporters on Thursday afternoon.

Thompson, a redshirt freshman, is one of four men charged with assaulting 18-year-old Noah Frillou while at the beach during spring break in Texas. All four alleged assailants played football at West Orange-Stark High School.

According to court records obtained by the Anniston Star, police have a video showing Thompson's involvement in the assault, which resulted in a concussion. The video allegedly shows Thompson kicking Frillou in the head during the incident.

Thompson turned himself in to Tuscaloosa police last Friday and his status for Saturday's spring game is unclear.

"I still don't have a lot of facts surrounding this circumstance and situation and what went on," Saban said. "And until we find that out, I really have no intentions of taking action until I know what I'm taking action for or about.

"We're just going to let him continue to take care of those issues and we'll address it when we get more information."

Thompson, a former four-star prospect in the Class of 2015, played in 14 games last season and tied for the team lead with eight tackles on kickoff coverage.

According to a document filed last Thursday in Galveston County 122nd District Court and obtained by BamaOnLine.com via the county's online database, an October trial date has been set for Alabama redshirt junior safety Deionte Thompson, one of four individuals indicted on second-degree felony assault charges stemming from a spring break brawl in March 2017.

Thompson's trial is scheduled to take place in his home state of Texas on Monday, October 8, two days after he and the rest of the Crimson Tide football team take on Arkansas in Fayetteville. Other important dates leading up to the trial include a motion to suppress (request by the defendant to have certain evidence excluded from trial, which sometimes leads to dismissal of charges) -- set for Sept. 21 -- and a pre-trial conference (establishment of ground rules for trial and another stage where resolution can occur) on Sept. 28.

Along with Rufus Joseph, Daletredricc Wolfford and Morris Joseph, Jr., a defensive lineman who spent the 2017 season at UT-San Antonio, Thompson was charged with allegedly beating Noah Frillou in Crystal Beach, Tex., on March 18, 2017 to the point of causing serious bodily injury. The quartet were then indicted by a Galveston County grand jury in October 2017.

Since the indictment proceedings, Thompson's legal representation has filed an order of continuance (Dec. 7, 2017) and he has met conditions of a $20,000 bond that included drug testing every 30 days, an obligation Thompson was required to pay for himself.

While the wheels are in motion for Thompson to have his day in court, the possibility remains for a resolution to Thompson's part in the case prior to his trial date. That said, Thompson's attorney, Sean Villery-Samuel, has stated that his client is set on being fully exonerated.

"Racial slurs were used and drinks were thrown at the people that were with Deionte Thompson," Villery-Samuel said in a statement to the Beaumont Enterprise on Nov. 2, 2017. "Thompson maintains his innocence and looks forward to having his day in court, so that he can clear his name."

Thompson, who was recently tabbed as a preseason first-team All-SEC selection at the league's Media Days event in Atlanta, played a large role in the Crimson Tide's College Football Playoff run in January, filling in for an injured Hootie Jones in games against Clemson and Georgia. In wins over the Tigers and Bulldogs in the 2018 CFP, he recorded seven total tackles and a pass breakup.

Thompson followed that up by taking over as an every down starter in the secondary during 2018 spring drills. For his efforts, he was given the Jerry Duncan “I Like to Practice” Award at the close of spring drills.

Alabama is set to open fall camp practices on Friday. Head coach Nick Saban will address the media after the workout.

Ummmmm....wants his day in court.....we need his day on the field in October....

 

[Tidestalker]

Was wondering about this.... Didn't think it had gone away.

Was wondering about this.... Didn't think it had gone away.

I thought it had after all this time. Gracious, I hate when things like this linger on, so I know it has to be eating him up inside.

 

[Crimson&WhiteGecko]

The young man is absolutely convinced of his innocence. I can't say I don't blame him taking every measure to prove it, even if he misses a game.

Some things are just more important. Good for him & I wish him luck.

The other dude got eaten up on the outside.... I'm very intrigued with where this goes and how Saban handles it. Because if it's as bad as it sounded it certain reports, Saban could catch some heat.

But despite what TerryP says, I don't believe everything I read. Just have a knack for reading between the lines :dance:

No, I agree with you. I still think it looks very bad for him again, but that is after I thought this had all been cleared up though.

 

[Shaft Williams]

Deionte graduated today. That's something that will look good in a trial.

Sure took the DA long enough to reconsider the facts.
