New reports are surfacing about the Larry Johnson incident with a woman during the Chiefs' bye week and they aren't looking good.According to the Kansas City Police Department Incident report, obtained by KMBC, Johnson was belligerent towards the female victim, calling her back inside Club Blonde in Kansas City and telling her, "All I wanted tell you is I'm going to kill your boyfriend."
If you can believe it, the story gets even worse.
"The listed Victim stated that the Suspect (presumably Johnson) then laughed and stated "All I wanted tell you is I'm going to kill your boyfriend." The Victim replied by saying "Ok." The Suspect then stated "I'm going to (censored) his world up because I can't (censored) yours up." The Victim replied by saying "Ok...why?" and the Suspect stated "Because you've been talking (censored)."Now here is where the class really spills out of Johnson. According to the report, Johnson then spit his drink in the lady's face before his bodyguards tackled her.
"The Suspects two bodyguards then tackled her and then the Club Blonde bouncers escorted her outside. The Victim stated she talked to the club manager, who stated he would go get the Suspect out of the club...While the Suspect was walking to his vehicle with his two bodyguards he attempted to spit on the Victim three more times."If we were allowed to cuss, this is where I'd let out a, "Are you (censored) kidding me?" If this report is true, Johnson should be history. Not only is he (allegedly) saying he's going to kill someone, but for the fourth time in his short career he assaulted a female for what can only be assumed was a petty reason.
Athletes get breaks on everything. They get to the front of the line in life, and have since the day they stepped foot on campus at that top-tier university. They are made to believe that the things they do are acceptable and that the real world rules don't apply to them. Well, this is one situation where such standards need to be broken.
Roger Goodell, I know you'll put your foot down if this is true, and I sure hope you aren't the only one to do so. Despicable is too soft of a word to use in this instance, if the reports are true.

Nothing like a good old fashion professional athlete role model to give kids someone to look up to. When does the Larry Johnson/Pacman Jones United Way commercial air?

Considering all the problems Larry has with the women, the only thing more disappointing than his stats most be the thing between his legs.

As if I needed yet another reason to not go to Club Blonde...god that place sucks. YOU'RE IN MISSOURI, PEOPLE...YOU'RE NOT THAT COOL.
Incidentally, this is not the first time LJ has had some lady-roughing practice there. Just the first time he's gotten busted. Hell, for all I know it's the same woman. Hint - if she was recently in med school at KU Med, it probably is.

We all know how this ends...
Johnson is guilty but gets off with a slap of the hand when his high powered attorneys pole-axe the locals yocals
KC fans turn sour on him and demand the Chiefs dump him
Dallas or the Raiders pick him up
He has a couple more good games on the downside of his career and then poisons the locker room
He is waived and blames the media, fans or pulls out the race card
More of the same....................

Shane, if you are correct I hope they send this guy to the big house. The problem that I have with the story is that you NEVER once mentioned if anybody backed up what happened.

HOLD THE F UP.....WHAT IS THIS? WHO THE HECK ARE YOU TO SLING MUD, INUENDO, REPEAT UNSUBSTANTIATED ACCUSATIONS AND ULTIMATELY ASSASSINATE WHAT LITTLE CHARACTER MR. L.J. MIGHT HAVE LEFT. LET ME TELL YOU. THERE'S ALWAYS TWO SIDES TO A STORY. LET ME REPEAT: THERE'S ALWAYS TWO SIDES TO A STORY. FRANKLY, I DON'T REALLY CARE ABOUT THIS STORY BECAUSE IT IS UNDOUBTLEY BIASED AND PRINTED ONLY TO SENSATIONALIZE AND ULTIMALEY SELL. THERE SHOULD BE A LAW ABOUT THIS TYPE OF JOURNALISM....LET THE CASE PROCEED TO TRIAL AND THEN YOU CAN WRITE ABOUT THE OUTCOME. BUT DON'T ATTACK THE DEFENDANT BEFORE HE HAS HIS DAY IN COURT....IM SO TIRED OF THIS CRAP.

Bobby - first off, the caps lock button is your friend. use it. you do not get your point across anymore with capital letters. secondly, this is a blog. it's not a piece of journalism you will find in the newspaper or a magazine, the guy can write what he wants. if this was the first time something like this happened with LJ, then maybe you could defend him...but it's the FOURTH TIME! how many times do you need to assault a woman before you get your a** locked up? this guy is a piece of trash who thinks he is above the law, and obviously has a horrible temper. who spits on people?

ben, you could'T BE MORE CORRECT....THIS ISN'T JOURNALISM. i WILL use CAPS WHENEVER I WANT. NO ONE EVER MADE THE ASSERTION OR ARGUMENT THAT USING CAPS MAKES FOR A BETTER ARGUMENT -- THAT'S YOUR STRAWMAN AND RED HERRING ROLLED UP INTO ONE GIANT SUSHI. MOREOVER I WENT AND REVIEWED THE PRIOR ALLEGATION AGAINST L. JOHNSON AND THE FIRST TIME HE WAS ACCUSED...ONE OF HIS FORMER GIRLFRIENDS SAW HIM OUT ON THE TOWN WITH A NEW GIRL AND THE OLD GIRL ATTACKED THE NEW GIRL...LARRY HAD TO RESTRAIN HER DUMB BUTT. GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT. OH YES, REMEMBER THAT A JUST BECAUSE ONE BLOGS OR WEB LOGS AS IT IS MORE APPROPRIATELY CALLED, DOES NOT INSULATE FROM LEGAL ACTION FOR DEFAMATION, LIBEL, OR SLANDER.

Larry Johnson has a problem with his huge ego. He came in to replace Priest Holmes and for his 1st year did a great job, but that is when the ego came into play. Now, he is a sorry running back. I am not surprised by the accusations brought up against him by these women. Professional athletes and celebrities think that once they start making millions they can act and do whatever they please. As a Chiefs fan, I think it is about time we tell Johnson and Coach Edwards to take a hike.
