Chris Henry the lowlife (1 Viewer)

Unsure of the source/found on another message board but... ugh. This is more detailed.

NEWPORT, Ky. -- Chris Henry could face another legal obstacle before he hits the field for the Cincinnati Bengals.The troubled wide receiver is the subject of a police complaint filed Tuesday in Newport, where a valet attendant accused Henry of shoving him during an argument.Jason Baker, of Bellevue, told police that Henry became angry when asked to pay $5 for parking at Newport On The Levee, and he said the football player cursed him and asked if the driver knew who he was.According to the complaint, Henry stood chest to chest with Baker and forced him to walk backward, before throwing a $5 bill to the ground saying, “You’d better pick that up, (expletive).”Baker said he picked up the bill, handed it to Henry and told him to leave before he called police.Henry’s companion got between the pair and pushed a microphone into the attendant’s face as he tried to call police from his valet booth, the report said.The attendant said he believed Henry intended to fight him before security arrived and the football player’s friend pulled him away, and police said the pair fled in a vehicle across the Taylor Southgate Bridge toward Cincinnati.Police were called back to Newport On The Levee a short time later when Baker said Henry and Alston Dyneal had returned, and officers banned the pair from the popular dining and entertainment complex.The attendant said Henry and Dyneal walked past him on their way to the parking garage and warned him that he should hope never to see them again.Officers told Baker to file a criminal complaint, and the report indicated that Henry and his friend could potentially be charged with menacing or harassment.Henry was activated Monday by the Bengals, having completed an eight-game suspension for violating the NFL's conduct policy after he was arrested four times in two seasons with the team.There was no immediate indication whether the most recent incident would trigger a probation violation in Florida, where he is on probation on a 2006 firearm conviction, or additional penalty from the Bengals or the NFL.The Bengals declined comment until more information was released about the incident.

What a moron. If the cops got involved and it's documented then he's hosed himself and the Bengals again. Won't be hard to prove this charge with his history and the fact that they came back to get the guy. Getting banned from a restaurant and incurring more legal problems that could affect his current legal problems not to mention get him suspended from the league again...all for $5. Really, the Bengals need to cut him. It's beyond obvious that he's never going to learn. This one has police back up, not like the unsubstantiated assault claim earlier.

 

[mad sweeney]

What a piece of work that guy is... It's hard to pull for a guy team like that. At least for me it is.

They have so many bad apples, keeping this one on the tree just makes them look even more foolish every time he gets into more trouble (legit claims like this one appears to be). I'll be surprised if he plays more than this week's game this year.

CINCINNATI -- Receiver Chris Henry was allegedly involved in an altercation with a parking attendant on the eve of rejoining the Cincinnati Bengals from his eight-game suspension.Henry practiced with the Bengals on Wednesday and will be eligible to play Sunday in Baltimore. Commissioner Roger Goodell suspended him for the first half of the season for repeatedly violating the NFL's conduct policy.The third-year receiver stayed out of trouble during the suspension and was allowed to practice with the team for the last two weeks. He sat out a 33-21 loss in Buffalo on Sunday that dropped his last-place team to 2-6.On Tuesday night, police in Newport, Ky., a suburb on the other side of the Ohio River within view of Paul Brown Stadium, were called to an entertainment district following a dispute over a parking fee.A parking attendant told police that Henry and another man parked their sport utility vehicle without paying. According to an incident report, the attendant said Henry argued loudly with him and said, "Don't you know who I am?"The attendant told police that Henry threw a $5 bill on the ground, but it was returned to him and police were called.No charges have been filed. Police told 35-year-old Jason Baker of Bellevue, Ky., that he could file a complaint with prosecutors if he wanted to pursue the matter. Baker didn't return a phone message on Wednesday.The Bengals were aware of the report but had no comment, noting that no charges had been filed.When Henry talked to reporters after practice Wednesday, he agreed to answer questions about football only. Henry, the team's No. 3 receiver, took some of the blame for Cincinnati's poor showing during his absence."I realize it," he said. "That's why it was killing me not being able to play. I kind of feel I let my teammates down by getting suspended."Coach Marvin Lewis was noncommittal on how much Henry might play in Baltimore. Receiver Chad Johnson practiced Wednesday despite a stiff neck, and receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh sat out with a sore knee but is expected to play.Henry's teammates were glad to have him back and knew what he had to do for the rest of the season."Just stay out of trouble," running back Rudi Johnson said. "He doesn't have to prove anything on the field. We all know what he can do. All we need for him to do is just be on the field and be with us and everything will be fine."Henry worked out with the starting offense Wednesday for the first time since training camp. Quarterback Carson Palmer has sensed a difference in Henry since he got his eight-game suspension."He's on a short leash and he knows that," Palmer said. "He's had to change a lot of things in his life and has done a phenomenal job. It was so hard for him to be standing around for eight games and watching games on TV and watching from the sidelines."It just tore a hole in his heart, and I think he's really realized how much he loves football and how much he's missed it. It's just great to see him out there smiling and running around and to see him happy again," he said.The 6-foot-4 receiver is one of the Bengals' best options near the end zone, scoring nine touchdown last season in only 13 games. He also has the speed to get open deep.Houshmandzadeh expects a more dangerous offense now that Henry is back."Obviously, it would help us," he said. "I think the coaches just might open up the play calling a little more, anyway."Asked what he learned during his suspension, Henry said, "I've been sitting back and going through this little stuff, my little suspension or whatever, and I've had a lot of time to sit down and think about everything. I'll be back out here giving it my all."

Chris Henry is the Juggernaut?

 

[KoolKat]

I'm going to wait for him to have a few good games and trade the moron in dynasty. Morons of this magnitude do not last in the NFL long. Before ten years is up, it will Chris Henry of the Penal System, not of the Bengals.

Recently reinstated Bengals WR Chris Henry is accused of harassing a valet parking attendant after Henry allegedly left his car without paying.

The parking attendant accuses Henry of going chest to chest with him and saying ""F-you...F-this...don't you know who I am?" Henry allegedly also threw a five dollar bill on the ground in front of the attendant and declared "You better pick that up b----". No charges have been filed, but the Bengals issued a statement on the matter: "We are aware of the reports. At this point it's not clear that anything substansive will develop."

I found myself wondering how I'd have reacted if Chris Henry did that to me. Which of course means it's time for:

Top Ten things the valet should have responded when Chris Henry told him, "F-you...F-this...don't you know who I am?"

10. Someone who makes enough to afford $5 but isn't important enough to not have to pay it?

9. I'd tell you to read your name off your driver's license if you need to hear it. But you went to West Virginia, so I

guess the reading part is out.

8. Why would I know who you are? I'm a valet, not a bail bondsman.

7. If that $5 was part of your signing bonus you had better hang onto it. They'll be asking for it back before long.

6. Nope. But I bet it's moments like this that make you glad they put your name on mugshots. Maybe you have a few wallet-sized you could show me?

5. Are you the one who shoots people or the one who gets underaged girls liquored up?

4. Aren't you Roger Goodell's b----?

3. Nope. They don't use people's names on 'Cops'.

2. I can never keep you two straight. Are you Serena or Venus?

And the Number 1 thing to say to Chris Henry when he asks you, "F-you...F-this...don't you know who I am?"

1. "The Defendant?"

 

[sm8680]

It's all about the points. If the guy produces and/or appears to have good projections for points I'll have him on my roster.

I personally don't want a Mother Theresa candidate on my team whose the epitomy of all thats good in this world if his value is less than an easter egg. For it doesn't help me win the league and buy new toys with my co-workers money.

Besides I usually have 2-3 spots for at risk players whether it be an injured guy or conduct detrimental to society guy.

It's about the Points babyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

The third-year receiver stayed out of trouble during the suspension and was allowed to practice with the team for the last two weeks. He sat out a 33-21 loss in Buffalo on Sunday that dropped his last-place team to 2-6.

On Tuesday night, police in Newport, Ky., a suburb on the other side of the Ohio River within view of Paul Brown Stadium, were called to an entertainment district following a dispute over a parking fee.

A parking attendant told police that Henry and another man parked their sport utility vehicle without paying. According to an incident report, the attendant said Henry argued loudly with him and said, "Don't you know who I am?"

The attendant told police that Henry threw a $5 bill on the ground, but it was returned to him and police were called.

Well, at least he learned his lesson...

I could see Jason Baker deciding not to persue the matter and carrying a slightly fatter wallet because of it.

 

[Sabertooth]

Seriously. If I was the parking attendant, I'd have done everything I could to provoke Henry to strike me. Probably a little whisper calling him a ##### would do the trick. Then, I would sue his pants off of him. He deserves something like that to happen to him. It would be fun to laugh at him when he said "you know who I am?"

Ray Lewis on the other hand, I'd say yes sir...no sir.

You don't think he deserves it? People like him think they can intimidate people and are too stupid to have the kind of money they have. A fool and his money are easily parted.

Problem is, he might decide to just come back and shoot you. I try to steer clear of arguments with lunatics.

 

[xenith]

What a fugtard!! Not just to be this big a ##### to begin with, but with all the incidents he's been having, to come back and talk more trash in front of officers (security or police?) is just the dumbest damn thing I've ever heard of.

 

[Joe Bryant]

FWIW, Marvin Lewis was live on Sirius Radio this morning saying he was 100% confident Henry was not in trouble here. The person in trouble was a relative of Henry's. Henry was there but he is totally clear of any wrongdoing. He actually made it sound like there was some trouble coming for the media people playing it up as if Henry was in trouble.

Now Henry does bring this type of scrutiny on himself. No doubt about it. But in this case, it appears (at least from what Lewis is saying) that Henry is totally in the clear here.

He was there, puking out a car window, when Odell Thurman got his DUI and Goodell included that in his assessment for the last suspension.Goodell does not care about convictions exclusively when doling out punishment. Adam Jones has not been convicted of anything.

Not since being in the NFL. But he was convicted of assault while at WVU.
