Denver Broncos receiver Brandon Marshall was found not guilty Friday by an Atlanta jury on misdemeanor battery against his former girlfriend. Brandon had faced two counts of simple batter before on his ex-girlfriend Rasheedah Watley in his Atlanta condominium that they shared together.
"I'm just happy now that legally and emothionally we can move past this."
Brandon Marshall also said he plans on celebrating Frida night by watching his teammates in an preseason game against the San Francisco 49ers. Brandon's lawyer, Harvey Steinberg, expressed that he was happy that Roger Goodell waited until the verdict of the case came out before he decied on Brandon's punishment. Brandon was suspended last season's opener after a series of domestic disputes, and Goodell stated that a conviction of in the Atlanta courts would lead to a second suspension.
I guess since Brandon wasn't found guilty then maybe he won't get suspended, and if he does maybe it might be like 3 games or less. I guess we just have see and wait. But, believe that I will keep you guys posted on the case. Hopefully he finally learned his lesson and he will stop fighting with his girlfriends, well now his fiance.
