Stallworth is innocent until proven guilty, in case you forgot this is still America.
if the guy walked out in front of him and wasn't in a crosswalk, and Stallworth wasn't drunk or on drugs, then it's not Stallworth's fault.
don't hang the man, before all the facts are known.
i wish people like you would make better decisions when they post.

not looking good for Stallworth. Looks like he's in a lot of hot water.
Outlets report Browns' Stallworth was drunk at time of fatal accident
March 19, 2009
MIAMI -- Cleveland Browns wide receiver Donte' Stallworth was driving drunk when he struck and killed a pedestrian, according to published and broadcast reports Thursday.

WSVN-TV reported Thursday that unnamed sources with knowledge of the investigation said Stallworth's blood-alcohol level was between .08 and .16. The legal limit is .08. The Miami Herald also cited an unnamed source as saying that Stallworth's blood-alcohol level was above the legal limit.
The Miami Beach Police Department refused to confirm the reports. Ed Griffith, spokesman for Miami-Dade County prosecutor Katherine Fernandez Rundle, would say only that the investigation is focusing on whether alcohol was a factor in the death of 59-year-old Mario Reyes.
Reyes was struck and killed by a Bentley driven by Stallworth about 7 a.m. Saturday morning. Reyes, a crane operator, had just gotten off work and was trying to catch a bus when he was hit.
No charges have been filed against Stallworth, 28. His agent, Drew Rosenhaus, nor his attorney, Robert Switke, returned calls from the Associated Press seeking comment. Stallworth issued a statement Wednesday saying he was "grief stricken" over Reyes' death.
If Stallworth was drunk, he could be charged with DUI manslaughter which carries a maximum 15-year prison sentence.
Stallworth signed a seven-year, $35 million contract with the Browns as a free agent before last season but was injured much of the year. He previously played for New England, Philadelphia and New Orleans in the NFL and played college football at Tennessee.

Granted... different people react different ways to alchohol, maybe he was okay. Then that man steps in front of him and whammo.... BAC over the legal limit(that's the smoking gun the didn't have with OJ or Ray-Ray) and he's done. He's not in as bad of shape as the family of the diceased, but he's done none the less.
i didnt see that ^^^ i though manslaughter was life even if DUI
whatever the senerio... these players think they are untouchable...
its such a shame when things like this happen but it happens all the time unfortunately...sigpic

The police have not released their report yet.
Best to wait untill the people that actually took the test release their report. The media did not take the test. The police did.

So basically if Donte were to make a post on FML (www.fmylife.com) it would probably read something like this:
Over the last few years I have screwed up or underachieved almost everywhere I went. I cried out of a good job in New Orleans playing with Joe Horn and I got shipped to Philly where I actually played pretty well with an amazing QB in Donovan. After my one year of decent work I signed with the powerhouse of the NFL in the Pats, in which we went 18-1 and I basically did nothing except watch Wes and Moss light up defenses. Being expendable there I go to a mediocre team with a lot of potential in the Browns, and catch like 18 balls all year and the other night in Miami I was so proud of my 2008 season I decided to get behind the wheel drunk and go driving, sadly it's not like GTA where you can outrun the cops, I got caught, my football career is over at 29 and I had the opportunity to play with great people and never won anything, well it was a good run, FML
