You can find the name of any legal owner of property through property records. If I was in that position, I'd have my property held in the name of a business entity or trust that didn't bear my name.
Look, there have actually been a number of professional athletes that have been victims of home invasions this year. I believe it was Antoine Walker and someone else that actually got tied up and robbed even. It's possible that this relates to his previous incident, but there is no evidence of that yet and it's very possible that this was simply a robbery attempt by some thugs.
Eddy Curry, apparently, they might have been linked. There have been several other similar incidents though, which raises the question of whether surrounding themselves with these kind of people/lifestyle is the smartest thing for some of these millionaire athletes to do, but that's for another thread.
Do they have $700K houses in the bad parts of Miami?
If I saw a nice house for $700K in a major metropolitan area like Miami, I'd assume it's not in a nice neighborhood. That's not a lot of money for a really nice house.
Considering where most of the money in Dade county comes from, the richer houses hold some of the worst criminals in the country.
JLC just reported this:
Seems there's some varying reports on whether he's actually out of surgery yet.
I love Iowa
$700k would probably buy Iowa, huh?
Well if he's still in surgery...he probably is in a coma. Duh.It could also be a medically induced coma for recuperative reasons.
Most likely until his blood pressure is up he will be in a medically induced coma to keep his body's requirements down and allow the fluids they replaced to get back up to full speed.I personally can't stand the guy on or off the field, but I really hope he pulls through and can regain his life and possibly even his career. If he lives then the Miami Metro-Dade EMS crew deserves all praises because you can bleed to death in minutes with a femoral artery injury. And I really hope they do a better job at finding the assailants than they did with the Darrent Williams shooting.
not sure about the MLB .... but can anyone , let alone criminals, recognize anyone in the NHL now a days..???Besides.... I believe a lot of foriegn players do have problems being robbed in Europe.
The Russian Mob's hold over young hockey players is out of control, not only Russian players but former Soviet republics and other Eastern European countries.Whoever hit Sean Taylor at 1:30 AM wasn't doing it because they recognized him, unless it was designed to hit Taylor in which case his past would be a lead into who did it.
The above incident is just part of the story. Let me fill you in on some details you seem to have left out.- Gang banger thugs broke into Sean Taylor's house and stole two ATV's worth over $20,000- The gangbangers made it known in the neighborhood that they stole the two ATVs from Taylor and were blatently making it known that they had two ATVs for sale.- Taylor originally called the cops to bust the punks but they were busy and weren't going to put a high priority on a crime involving property.- Taylor rounded up his posse and went to the gangbangers brandishing a weapon.- Taylor fired one shot into the air after he recoved HIS ATVs so the gangbangers did in fact steal his property.- The gangbangers had a LENGTHY criminal history.- The upset gangbangers who got roughed up went to Taylor's home while brandishing weapons. They fired hundreds of shots at Taylor's home and vehicle in the driveway. Taylor and his posse were in the residence but did not return fire. This happened right after the altercation.- When Taylor reported the incident to the police they turned the case over to a young prosecutor.- The prosecutor was a 26 year old who had his own MY SPACE website that showed him out dancing without a shirt and spinning records. He made it known on his website that his night life as a DJ was what he wanted to pursue.- The 26 year old prosecutor who was earning a six figure salary as prosecutor.- The 26 year old prosecutor had picturs of him with and many correspondences on his web page with UNDERAGE GIRLS. - The 26 year old prosecutor made it known on his web page that he was was prosecuting Sean Taylor in order to boost his image as more than just a DJ.- The 26 year old prosecutor made a deal with the gangbangers who broke into Taylor's garage where he would not file ANY CHARGES agasint the gangbangers who originally stole $20,000 worth of property, who had a lengthy criminal history, who fired HUNDREDS of rounds into an occupied residence. The prosecutor wanted to make a name for himself and went after Sean Taylor.- Taylor was facing TEN YEARS IN PRISION for firing ONE SHOT into the air while recovering HIS PROPERTY from known gangbangers with lengthy ciriminal histories. - After the facts of the case began to surface and the embarrassing photographs and correspondences with UNDERAGE females were made known the 26 year old prosecutor took down his MY SPACE page and was subsequently FIRED as a prosecutor so he could pursue his DJ occupation full time.- Sean Taylor was acquitted of all charges but the prosecutor. The gangbangers were still open to prosecution for many charges but that part of the story was never made public.If anything I would put the gangbangers who had stolen Taylor's property and who shot up his vehicle and residence as people of interest in this shooting.
He did but not far enough.
Ugh.
that really friggin sucks man..hopefully he's not too bad
Wow. That's probably due to blood loss and shock. Scary stuff.
If this is true, it breaks my heart. He has sounded to me like a guy who got his act together in his personal life in the last year-plus, and his athletic abilities are simply phenomenal. Man this sucks.
From the same link, people might want to read this before they start to throw stones...
full article is posted above and just says they don't know what happened. they're not denying the robbery angle but they aren't confirming it either.
"Can't find any evidence of a robbery" (apparently aside from the gunshot wounds
) seems like a huge negative pregnant, along the lines of "I didn't beat my wife last night". I guess they mean nothing was taken. A more plausible explanation at this point would seem to be that someone attempted to break in, was confronted by Taylor at some point early on, and shot Taylor and fled before stealing anything.Why are we even speculating about this?
Benign theorizing. Why shouldn't we?
Trying to connect the dots with the little information we have daveandken.
Sorry - just seems like a sensitive subject that we'd actually want facts on.
