Beard arrested?

[Gylcomer]

Really we are all just chimpanzees with car keys..whether it be man or woman, Saudi or American. Hairless apes who have acquired technology. Unfortunately, we now have tools in our toolbox, with which we shouldn’t be monkeying around.

When we “ fall in love” we are prone to wild emotions and even cruelty that no other animal would commit. Have a nice day

Which reported police report is the real one?
The one that reported She answered the door and talked to the police at the door
or this one from Fix news?
"The 49-year-old Beard was booked into Travis County Jail around 5:18 a.m. on a third-degree charge of assault on a family/household member impeding breath circulation, according to inmate records from the Travis County Sheriff’s Office.

A disturbance was called in to 911 after midnight, though it was deemed "no longer ongoing" and one individual had left the home. Officers had located a woman later who claimed she had been "assaulted and strangled" by Beard. "
Texas suspends Chris Beard as men's basketball head coach following assault arrest
Either way he is wrong and done here at Texas
but facts should matter when it gets to court.

Was she there and talked to police when they came?
Or was it like it was reported that when the police arrived this incident was no longer ongoing and one individual had left?
Then police located the woman later??

I can't imagine Beard surviving this.

 

[mchammer]

I can't imagine Beard surviving this.

Agreed, but I can’t imagine him being convicted of anything serious.

 

[LonghornCatholic]

Chisme....

 

[LonghornCatholic]

Racehorse Hanyes will get the charges reduced to a misdemeanor and he survives.

 

[2003TexasGrad]

Racehorse Hanyes will get the charges reduced to a misdemeanor and he survives.

Again as a public figure at one of the most high profile universities in the country hes finished. Misdemeanor or not the university has to fire him.

 

[LonghornCatholic]

Then Racehorse will sue the University for unequal application of misdemeanors against University employees.

 

[Driver 8]

That girl must be wicked nasty hot for anyone to put up with the crazy
Some of them can be worth it for a little while IYKWIM

 

[ATX_Horns]

Chisme....

Could be something like that movie .. Thin line between love and hate ?

 

[txlandagent]

BTW the woman with the two knifes was one of the best I’ve ever known.

Best....Lays I'm guessing? or Baker? Accountant? Powerwasher?

 

[Garmel]

Chisme....

If true that does give him a chance if he was trying to protect himself from the crazy.

 

[2003TexasGrad]

Then Racehorse will sue the University for unequal application of misdemeanors against University employees.

What misdemeanor are you comparing assault and battery to?

 

[Garmel]

Racehorse Hanyes will get the charges reduced to a misdemeanor and he survives.

Unless some medium can contact the dead I'm afraid Racehorse can't help.

 

[Sangre Naranjada]

Or was it like it was reported

Do you really believe an internet reporter would get all the facts right? On purpose?

 

[LonghornCatholic]

What misdemeanor are you comparing assault and battery to?

I speculated charges would be reduced to misdemeanor. Thought that’s what you replied to.

 

[Driver 8]

See I can imagine peak Shania Twain girlfriend being all bat **** crazy dangerous and I'm gonna make that work as long as I can ya dig

 

[2003TexasGrad]

I speculated charges would be reduced to misdemeanor. Thought that’s what you replied to.

What would the misdemeanor for Beard be and what other case would you compare it to?

 

[LonghornCatholic]

I was just spitballing lol, I have no idea how this thing is gonna play out, and Racehorse Haynes is dead.

 

[Horn6721]

I don't know how anything gets decided in prosecuting.
USA today reports Police went to residence at 2:07 am on a " disturbance- urgent call
Local CBS reported police went to residence at 12: 15 am.
"On December 12, 2022, at approximately 12:15 a.m., the Austin Police Department (APD) received a 9-1-1 call for a disturbance in the 1900 block of Vista Lane. The caller reported the disturbance was no longer ongoing and one of the individuals had left the house. APD officers responded and located a woman who stated she had been assaulted and strangled by Christopher Michael Beard."
ESPN reported ," Austin police told ESPN they received a "disturbance hotshot" call, and officers were dispatched to the 1900 block of Vista Lane shortly after midnight Monday. The Austin Police Department's website defines a "hotshot" call as "incidents which are in progress are an immediate threat to life and/or public safety. ... These calls are dispatched immediately.


So did the police show up at 12:15 am or 2:07 am
Did Beards finance tell poliece when they got there Beard had choked her
Or had she left? And who then told the police it was no longer on going. And how did the police find Beard's fiance later, where?
The facts here are as muddled as the Paul Pelosi case.
No wonder police reports are considered hearsay.

 

[LonghornCatholic]

I haven't read the police report, but thought I saw somewhere it was 4am when they arrived.

 

[LonghornCatholic]

What would the misdemeanor for Beard be and what other case would you compare it to?

You don’t see the possibility of reduced charges? If yes, how low do you think his attorney could get them? I don’t know, sincerely asking. Agree though, it’s gonna take a miracle for Christopher Michael to survive this mess.

See I can imagine peak Shania Twain girlfriend being all bat **** crazy dangerous and I'm gonna make that work as long as I can ya dig

My son had a roommate who loved having girlfriends who w/could go a little crazy...until he got a REAL one...who, in a drunken, screaming tantrum broke virtually all his **** then shattered glass in his bed. That took all the fun out of crazy girlfriends. He grabbed her, wrapped his arms around her to stop the crazy. She called 911, reported that he beat her, showed the grab prints on her wrists...he was charged & had a hell of a time/costing a small fortune/taking over a year to get his name cleared. She even tried to drop the charges after she sobered up, but the DA wouldn't let it go.

 

[SabreHorn]

LC,

I liked Haynes, but if we're going to pull someone out of Greenwood, I'd go with his mentor Percy Foreman. Has there ever been a better defense than Percy defending Candy Mosler?

 

[LonghornCatholic]

Forgot that name. Did he defend Jack Ruby?

 

[SabreHorn]

No, Jack Ruby was defended by Joe Tonahill, graduate of The University of Texas and country lawyer in Jasper.

Tonahill's other notable victories were but not limited to:

1) Some 580+ indictments handed down from FBI investigation into organized crime (full gambling casinos, prostitution, etc). Tonahill was defense counsel for all the defendants. Results - Tonahill 580+, Feds ZERO

2) After the Supreme Court ruling on Impact, Tonahill incorporated the all black community in Jasper. City charter allowed A (only one) liquor store in dry East Texas. Guess who owned the liquor license; a Jasper lawyer.

 

[EDT]

Racehorse Hanyes will get the charges reduced to a misdemeanor and he survives.

LC, you must have some really good Holy water. Richard Racehorse Haynes died in 2017.

 

[SabreHorn]

Once the Sofka family sold the property on Memorial, and there was no longer the Otto's hamburger location, Haynes figured no lunch, no life and checked out

 

[2003TexasGrad]

You don’t see the possibility of reduced charges? If yes, how low do you think his attorney could get them? I don’t know, sincerely asking. Agree though, it’s gonna take a miracle for Christopher Michael to survive this mess.

Yes I can see reduced charges but did he choke her? Did he bite her? If that is true I dont care if its a misdemeanor or not. You can't have that representing the university. You just can't.
