Yeah, I'd say that anybody rolling around with a pound of weed in their car which has expired tags counts as the "wrong crowd" to be around DGB

Perhaps this will end some of the speculation of what was or wasn't found, who was or wasn't released.

Arrest of Dorial Green-Beckham

Springfield Police confirm the arrest of Dorial Green-Beckham (M/B, 4/12/93) and two other Springfield men, John W. McDaniel (M/B, 1/27/91) and Patrick W. Prouty (M/W, 3/1/93), in conjunction with a traffic stop that occurred last night. The stop was made after the arresting officer noticed the license plate tab on a 1999 Jeep Cherokee, driven by McDaniel, had expired in October of 2013. When the officer made contact with McDaniel regarding the license plate violation, he could smell an odor of marijuana inside the vehicle. The traffic stop occurred near Sunshine and Jefferson in Springfield.

During the search of the Jeep, officers found approximately a pound of marijuana and assorted drug paraphernalia. All three occupants were arrested and booked into the Greene County Jail for Distribution of a Controlled Substance.

All three suspects were released pending further investigation and the laboratory testing of physical evidence. The release of suspects pending the filing of formal charges, and without bond, based on the outcome of a completed investigation and lab results, is normal procedure in Greene County for non-violent felonies and most drug cases.

The arrest of a person is merely an allegation and should not be presumed as conclusion of guilt. All parties are assumed innocent until a finding of guilt in a court of law. The case continues to be under investigation and no further details will be released at this time.

Only a pound?

That's not too bad.

**TribalElder** · 01-12-2014, 02:19 AM

Hooptie with old tags and a pound of bunk

3rd rounder yet?

Pablo · 01-12-2014, 02:22 AM

Seriously, a pound?

That can't be right.

Gets dicey. A pound is roughly .45kg. Anything above .5 kg and you're looking at felony sale. 20 years and a fine of $1,000,000

If this happened within 1,000 feet of a school the penalty doubles.

Messier · 01-12-2014, 09:43 AM

A pound you're not smoking, you're selling.

Prison Bitch · 01-12-2014, 11:20 AM

That's why they're under the "distribution" parameters as of now.

Details emerge in Green-Beckham arrest

Gabe DeArmond

Late Friday night, Dorial Green-Beckham was arrested, along with two other individuals, in his home town of Springfield. Green-Beckham, John McDaniel and Patrick Prouty, were pulled over in McDaniel's 1999 Jeep Cherokee, which had expired tags. Upon approaching the vehicle, the police officer smelled marijuana.

 According to a statement released Saturday night by the Springfield Police Department, officers found "approximately a pound of marijuana and assorted drug paraphernalia."

 All three were arrested and booked in the Greene County Jail on suspicion of "possession with intent to distribute a controlled substance." Green-Beckham spent approximately five hours in the jail before being released shortly before 4 a.m. Sunday. No bond was posted.

"All three suspects were released pending further investigation and the laboratory testing of physical evidence. The release of suspects pending the filing of formal charges, and without bond, based on the outcome of a completed investigation and lab results, is normal procedure in Greene County for non-violent felonies and most drug cases," the statement from the Springfield police department read. "The arrest of a person is merely an allegation and should not be presumed as conclusion of guilt. All parties are assumed innocent until a finding of guilt in a court of law. The case continues to be under investigation and no further details will be released at this time."

In Missouri, possession of more than 35 grams of marijuana is considered a felony offense, punishable by up to a $5,000 fine and/or seven years in prison. University policy at Missouri states that an athlete charged with a felony would be indefinitely suspended from the team. If convicted, that athlete would be dismissed from the team.

 However, Green-Beckham's family does not believe he will be charged in relation to the weekend arrest. John Beckham, Dorial's adoptive father, said as much in a text message to both the Springfield News-Leader and the St. Louis Post-Dispatch on Saturday:

"After being interviewed he was released. We feel very confident that the investigation will result in no charges against Dorial. Dorial very much regrets being in this situation and our family looks forward to this being resolved."

 Green-Beckham, a sophomore at Mizzou, took to Twitter on Saturday evening, posting the following message from his account (@DorialGB5): "People judge before knowing what happen. Let's not judge me for what happen and don't saying anything to me to try to bring me down."

 Early on Saturday, Mizzou athletic department spokesman Chad Moller said that the school would not comment until learning more about the incident. Contacted following the release of the statement by the Springfield police, Moller said the school had, at the current time, "nothing more than what I'd said previously."

McDaniel told the Springfield News-Leader that the marijuana in the car did not belong to himself or to Green-Beckham.

 Green-Beckham caught a team-high 59 passes for 883 yards and 12 touchdowns for the Tigers this season. School at Mizzou is out of session until January 21st.

PowerMizzou.com will provide updates on this story as they are available.

Well, he'll be in the NFL with a ton of money in a year or so; so he'll definitely be able to continue to make awful decisions.

Sounds like he won't be charged, or so they think.

Assuming that's the outcome he's been caught twice in the presence of weed in the past yr & not charged.

You do the math.

PS,

What I implied is IMO most likely but not necessarily absolutely. I was in the presence of friends smoking weed quite a bit in high school at parties & such & have never smoked it in my life. With the help of some bad luck I could have been in a similar situation more than once. A mere anecdote, for all I know he could be toking up more than Willie Nelson.

SEC Network’s cost will top that of other college nets

http://www.sportsbusinessdaily.com/J...9cV14.facebook

Distributors in SEC country can expect to pay a rate of $1.30 to carry the soon-to-be-launched SEC Network, according to several sources with knowledge of the rate card.

That fee, paid on a monthly per-subscriber basis, is what cable and satellite companies within the SEC’s 11-state footprint would pay to ESPN, the owner of the SEC Network. Outside of SEC territory, the channel’s license fee drops to 25 cents.

Cable operators are certain to blanche at the network’s price tag, which is more expensive than other college conference channels like Big Ten Network and Pac-12 Networks.

But ESPN could have leverage as it negotiates with cable operators, as it appears to be on the cusp of landing a deal with one of the industry’s biggest distributors. Sources said that the country’s third-largest distributor, Dish Network, has agreed to carry the channel from its August launch. The deal has not been completed and is part of a bigger overall deal that it is negotiating with ESPN. Dish’s ESPN deal expired at the end of September, but the two worked out an extension, and they are still negotiating terms. Sources say SEC Network carriage is not a sticking point in these talks.

Dish Network’s national reach and roughly 14 million subscribers would be a significant deal for the new network. AT&T U-verse, with 4.5 million subscribers, previously said that it would carry the channel. It’s unusual for channels to have distribution deals so far in front of a channel’s launch. Typically, distributors and networks wait until just before or after a launch to agree on carriage terms.

Comcast and Time Warner Cable are the biggest cable operators in the SEC’s footprint, and ESPN is using its schedule to apply pressure against them. The SEC Network’s first football game Aug. 28 will be between two schools based in Time Warner Cable markets: South Carolina and Texas A&M. The second game of its Aug. 28 doubleheader will feature Vanderbilt, which is in a Comcast market, against Temple, in Comcast’s hometown of Philadelphia.

ESPN President John Skipper has said in the past that the network expects the SEC channel to reach distribution on par with ESPNU, which is in nearly 75 million homes.

An in-market rate of $1.30 makes the SEC Network significantly more expensive than the Big Ten Network. BTN launched in 2007 and currently charges up to $1 in its 11-state footprint from New Jersey to Nebraska. Sub fees on average from both inside and outside the footprint average 37 cents, according to researcher SNL Kagan.

ESPN executives have expressed confidence that the SEC Network will get carriage, especially in SEC states, because of the conference’s rabid fan base across sports. It was ESPN’s top-rated football conference in 2012. SEC games account for nine of the 10 most-viewed regular-season college baseball games in ESPNU history, and it holds nine of 10 of the most-viewed college softball games on ESPNU.

David Preschlack, executive vice president of affiliate sales and marketing for Disney and ESPN Networks Group, is leading the talks for ESPN. Justin Connolly, ESPN senior vice president for programming, is leading the creation of the network.

I'm always fascinated MU fans still believe there's still going to be this earthquake explosion of revenues that'll make them (and the SEC) rich ad everyone else a pauper. As if the other major conferences would ever allow such a scenario to occur, or go along with it when they could simply band together and freeze out the SEC, leaving them awful non-con games and relegating them to a true Southern quadrant attraction. NASCAR already proved you can't subsist on that regional support alone. Realistically it's extremely doubtful TV will ever pay for one league to have a size able revenue gap.
