Suggs doesn't talk with Phoenix police
By Bob Moran, Tribune
Former Arizona State football star Terrell Suggs has returned to Los Angeles without being interviewed by Phoenix police who are investigating a brawl Suggs was involved in last Saturday.

Suggs, accompanied by Phoenix attorney Darrow Soll, on Wednesday night had photos taken by Phoenix police of wounds he received during the brawl.

"I can't comment on the specifics," of the face-to-face meeting, Soll said.
"We have provided them with the identification of witnesses. We have provided them with photographs. We have permitted Terrell to be photographed."

Gary Wichard, Suggs' Los Angeles-area based agent, had been speaking for the ex-Sun Devils standout since the brawl, which took place in the parking lot of Phoenix Municipal Stadium at a 3-on-3 basketball tournament.

Thursday, Wichard referred all inquiries to Soll.

"I'm out," he said, before confirming that Suggs wasn't interviewed by the police.

Wichard said Suggs has resumed preparation in Los Angeles for the April 20-21 NFL draft. Suggs has another workout for NFL scouts scheduled later this month. In a workout at ASU last week, he ran a slow time in the 40-yard dash that may have an impact on where he is drafted. A police spokesman had said on Tuesday the police needed to speak with Suggs to determine "if a crime had been committed." Weapons were used in the brawl that may have had as many as nine participants.

Earlier Thursday, Phoenix police were telling news outlets Suggs wasn't cooperating with investigators.

"We believe we have been cooperative and will continue to be cooperative with police," said Soll, who has represented boxer Mike Tyson and former ASU quarterback Ryan Kealy. "We have provided them with information that will be exculpatory towards Terrell."

Phoenix police have yet to file an official report on the brawl.

Sounding more ands more like he will be there at #6.

Unfortunately for us the Dallas Felons have never had a problem with having players who were in trouble with the law. And they have reportedly coveted Suggs since early on. The poor workout that Suggs had might have more effect on Dallas than the brawl. If at his next workout he doesn't significantly improve, I definately think that he will be available when we pick at #6. Come on Suggs tank your next wokout and you can stay in AZ., play pro ball, and stay around family and friends.

E tu Dr. D? Gosh-darnit! I can't say anything - this is killing me! It's nice seeing such a harmonious board - kind of like Nazi Germany (is sarcasm outlawed for me also?).

FIX THE D-LINE!

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

beef, enough with the "dr.d" - and you're really not making any friends with nazi references, just copy whatever tango or lex writes and paste it onto the end of your biting commentary. that should de-negatize it.

ALL THIS IS SAID IN JEST!!! PLEASE DON'T BE THINSKINNED. WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Isn't that a George Costanza quote?

That's what I would've said several years ago. But, I saw my uncle have a horrible experience with the Tempe police department that has forever changed how I view police. In any situation, I'd always be very cautious if there was even a remote chance of me being charged unless someone's life had been taken or was threatened. Since that isn't the situation here, and publicity hungry Rick Romley has aggressively gone after athletes in the past to get his face on TV, I don't blame Suggs for not doing more than he has to.

With my uncle, I witnessed the "incident", and these guys flat out lied. Then, they concocted and rehearsed false testimony. Except they screwed it up in court and the judge threw the case out in less than 2 hours. Everybody thought my uncle should've sued, just to drag those jerks out into the public light and get his legal costs back. But, he wanted to be all Christian and forgiving and stuff and not have to hassle with it anymore as well by traveling between California and Arizona.

For a white boy from the suburbs, it really opened my eyes. Because of this, whenever I hear about any criminal case, I always believe there is a chance the police are lying.

wow, you and iverson should chill together.

seriously, that sucks. i understand. what kind of society are we that when most of us see a cop these days we immediately get uncomfortable. they are supposed to be there to "serve and protect," but instead of feeling protected, i tend to feel intimidated. that just ain't right. a cop hassled us the other day down by the beach. we were four 30-something-year-old attorneys. how "bad" could we have looked?
