He threw away all that money just for the love of the game?
My goodness.
Arnold signed a $14-million contract in June 2024 with the Detroit Lions, which included a $7-million signing bonus!
Imagine throwing all that away because you can't control your sinful impulse for violence and skullduggery.
From CBS News:
According to Tampa police, the case dates back to February 4. Investigators say three victims were lured to an apartment, pistol‑whipped, held at gunpoint, and robbed.
Arnold owned the apartment where this happened, which he rents out as an Airbnb listing.
Authorities allege Arnold played a central role in the incident, accusing him of coordinating suspects and directing the attack. Police say evidence includes group chats and livestreamed video that investigators believe tie Arnold to the crime.
Arnold is charged with four counts of kidnapping and four counts of armed robbery.
Some people are providing the context that Arnold and his co-conspirators were trying to get the jump on people who had robbed him out of $250,000, as if kidnapping and pistol whipping people instead of the cops somehow makes it better.
The cherry on top is that he apparently picked innocent victims instead!
From the Detroit News:
The Feb. 24 order stated that the armed robbery and kidnapping were a direct result of 'Arnold and his friends' deciding to 'take matters into their own hands' after Arnold's rental home was robbed twice. 'While traveling in a car with Arnold back from Tallahassee, [Boakai] Hilton orchestrates the ambush,' according to the order.
Arnold was apparently targeting a man named Yan Lopez that he'd hired as his chauffeur.
(Again, you can't just kidnap and pistol whip people you THINK have wronged you.)
After decades, the Lions are finally shaping up to maybe, just maybe, win a Super Bowl one day.
But this guy goes and throws himself and all of Michigan under the bus with armed robbery and kidnapping?
If so, one of the dumbest humans alive!
