Not sure if anyone's made this point yet but it reminds me a lot of the Tonya Harding story in the sense that Shady told some friends (either directly or indirectly) to "take care of it while I'm gone" and they went off the deep end with that request.
I have seen and read up on a lot of stuff involving this case so far. A couple things haven't added up with some of the talking heads.
1) She goes into great detail and great lengths on the 911 call to tell the dispatcher about who she thinks did it, how he got in and out of the house, where the cameras were, what he wanted to get, calling it a targeted break in, that he wanted the jewelry, etc. The call goes on and on for multiple minutes. Why would she elaborate so much to a dispatcher? Wouldn't your concern be that someone broke in, I'm injured, my son is missing, send someone quickly, please hurry? It almost seems like she went way out of her way to get all of her accusations and key elements of the attack ON A RECORDED LINE. She seems way more concerned about getting all the info out than getting the police and medical assistance to the house.
2) I don't know if it is shoddy reporting, what was said to the police, how things got transcribed. etc., but some media outlets have reported the assailant asked for all the money and jewelry in the house. She apparently told the police that the assailant saw the diamond bracelet on her wrist and then demanded that too. IMO, that's way different than saying the guy asked for specific items. Demanding a Cartier diamond necklace from a particular store is entirely different than demanding all the jewelry and money in the house. Just asking for those items could make it a random break in.
3) Some women have commented that a woman in bed at 3:30 a.m. WOULD NOT be wearing an expensive diamond bracelet to bed. They mentioned that if it was worth thousands and thousands of dollars, the huge majority of women would take it off and put it away before going to bed.
4) We don't know the full details, but it sounds like the jewelry in question was signed out by her on loan from top jewelers over a year ago but in his name, and he has been trying to get her to return them either to him or back to the stores. That is a completely different situation than if he bought them outright and gave them to her as gifts. She can't claim ownership of something borrowed or rented from a store.
5) There is something that doesn't add up to how the perp got in and out of the house. It was labeled as a targeted home invasion because there was no forced entry. Couldn't the doors have been unlocked? Didn't they find one of the windows open and evidence that someone had climbed through it? At my house, we don't always lock all the doors and we certainly don't latch all the windows.
6) The IG post referenced issues with domestic violence and child abuse. The police had been to the house 3 other times, found no threats or evidence of abuse, and there were no allegations of abuse made. The attorney for the GF just came out today and said there was no abuse prior to this incident and they are not in agreement with what the initial IG posts listed as allegations.
7) McCoy told the police a year ago he was concerned she would make false allegations against him and he was concerned he would face the wrath of the league given their domestic violence policies.
8) McCoy did what the police advised him to do . . . go through the court system to get her evicted, have the court compel her to return any items of his still in her possession, and stay away from her.
9) The incident occurred the day before their court hearing when she could finally have been legally forced out of the house. Why on earth would he then send someone to beat her up after waiting a year to get her out when there was a decent chance the court would have ordered it THE NEXT DAY? (Ultimately the hearing got rescheduled, but the point still stands.)
All that being said, all that is making the news is that she claimed McCoy set it up and he is the one that did it to her. That his career is in jeopardy. That the NFL is going to put him on the exempt list and he won't be able to play. I haven't seen too many places actually researching what the situation is and what is ongoing in the investigation.
Maybe they find that McCoy was behind this and hold him responsible, but the way things are being reported, the reports are making him out to be a total monster.
