ESPN’s Adam Schefter Blasted Over Deshaun Watson Being Cleared!
On Friday, it was reported that Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson, who was accused of multiple sexual assaults by multiple women was not indicted…
CelebnSorts247.com reports that Deshaun Watson will not face charges on the nine criminal complaints following a police investigation into 22 civil lawsuits alleging sexual misconduct in massage sessions.
A grand jury in Harris Country, Texas, determined Friday Deshaun Watson‘s fate.
However, ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter took to Twitter with a highly condemned reaction to the news that Deshaun Watson would not face criminal charges over allegations of sexual assault and harassment.
Schefter wrote:
This is why Deshaun Watson, from the beginning, welcomed a police investigation: He felt he knew that the truth would come out. And today, a grand jury did not charge him on any of the criminal complaints.
He followed it with a better explanation:
This was a poorly worded tweet that deserves a proper response. It was intended to provide insight into the strategy of Watson’s legal team from its POV. I should have been clearer. As legal experts have explained, a lack of an indictment alone does not mean someone is innocent.

Watson still faces 22 civil lawsuits over those allegations stemming from massage sessions, so Schefter’s tweet is misinformed due to his legal troubles not being over.

This is an extremely bad tweet for a reporter.

Proof that there is a fine line between sports journalist and gossip columnist. My God take this down.

Maybe Adam should listen and remove the Tweet?
