Quote of the Week

This statement came from Maurice Clarett's attorney in response to Clarett's arrest yesterday: "We're very confident that there was no intent to harm anyone."

His attorney made this statement "a day after the former Ohio State running back was arrested following a chase with police and four loaded guns were found in his sport utility vehicle." Also, "Officers said they could not easily subdue Clarett because the bulletproof vest he was wearing thwarted their stun guns." Another interesting thing is that "Clarett was driving with the guns only a few blocks from the home of a woman who was set to testify against him next week in an alleged robbery outside a Columbus bar." These quotes come from a Sports Illustrated story online that you can read here. Bold italics added by me. Hey, as long as the defense attorney is confident, I'm sold.

I'm with the attorney. I mean, does the world think that driving around with four loaded guns, one underneath your leg, while wearing a bulletproof vest is abnormal? I wear that all the time. It's when I go to physically threaten those ready to testify against me that I leave all of that stuff behind. Idiot. But hey, the bulletproof vest can be warranted I guess. You never know when the idiot Clarett might shoot himself.
