This just messy with Dunbar.

Baker and Dunbar showed on Video paying off people.

A warrant obtained by Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News cites evidence, including video footage and direct messages, that allegedly show witness Dominic Johnson oversaw payoffs of the four alleged victims at the office of Dunbar’s attorney, Michael Grieco.

Dunbar's choice of attorney, followed by that guy's strategy in practice, immediately had me worried about claim of innocence being legit. I haven't seen anything that has happened that gives me hope we'll see Dunbar in one of our uniforms.

To be clear..Dunbar is not on video.

He might get out of this whole thing but i guy tells me he's far from innocence.

All signs lead to him being guilty. There I said it. Not messy. Guilty.

Perhaps he'll get off on a "technicality". Either way, he appears to not make the greatest of decisions.

Dunbar has added to his lawyer roster. New guy named Weinstein. Hope he's a little more of a straight shooter than the first guy seems to be. Looks as though the prosecution is putting together a pretty strong case. The tricky part for Dunbar's defense will be defining "reasonable" doubt.

It's messy and he's guilty. If he wasn't, he wouldn't be paying off witnesses. Either he or his lawyer thinks he is guilty. Why would his lawyer do that if he wasn't? At his own lawyer's office to boot. Not very smart. Sounds like shady characters all around to me.

Agreed. At first, it didn't sound logical but...paying them off? Defense can twist that anyway they want but it wasn't conducted as an out of court settlement and 100% implicates them.

Let's pull off a Clowney and Adam's deal out of JS' hat and alleviate some of this nonsense (without coughing up multiple first rounders). Oh, and pray that Tre uses this gift as motivation.

Not a terrible strategy. Makes them appear to be unreliable witnesses

Unless one of them is the one who tipped off police.

I like to see the goodness in folks . The Hawks need to find a replacement for Dunbar. ASAP

If nothing else this whole payoff thing makes Adam's and Clowney's price look more palatable.

No video lol

From what I read , they are being extorted and should be released of charges soon

Yeah, the players' attorneys are claiming that the players are the victims and are being extorted:

https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2 ... aker-case/

"“Law enforcement, both local and federal, was advised from day one and beyond that the alleged ‘victims’ in this case were actively extorting Baker and Dunbar,” said Grieco, who represents Dunbar. “These men fabricated a robbery story after waiting an hour to call police and then immediately began contacting the players demanding money."

This issue of what was the explanation for the change of positions between the oddly delayed initial complaint and then the exculpatory affidavits is the reason for the delay of the prosecution in making decisions to formally charge these two and proceed to grand jury hearing of the supposed robbery allegations. This recent payoff stuff seems kind of like a last ditch attempt to colour this situation prior to dismissal. I think the lead case isn’t very strong However, It will get very ugly if there is any truth to any of it. Given the various reversals can anyone truly say they are clear about what actually happened.

Each one of the complainants is a person of dubious or legitimately unsavoury character, so who really knows what really happened but this latest payoff allegation is not pretty. If they took a payoff to change their story how reliable a witness could they really be? In the end unless there is a smoking gun on the payoff stuff I suspect a jury could never indict these guys, or if so the likelihood of a conviction for the robbery seem slim.

There are other reason why Baker might get axed by the Giants, which have more to do with football than extra-curricular activities. If Dunbar actually was involved he’s not that bright all things considered.

!!!!

What is Dunbar's cap number?
