A former FBI director hired to look into how the NFL pursued evidence in the Ray Rice abuse case says the league should have investigated more thoroughly before it initially punished the player. “The NFL should have done more with the information it had and should have taken additional steps to obtain all available information about the Feb. 15 incident,” Robert S. Mueller III said in a statement after releasing his report. Mr. Mueller said he can find no evidence the league received the video showing Mr. Rice striking his fiancee in a casino elevator before it was published online in September. A law enforcement official showed The Associated Press videos of the incident and said he mailed a DVD to NFL headquarters in April. The report, which can be viewed below, said a review of phone records and emails of NFL employees in New York backs up statements from Commissioner Roger Goodell that nobody had seen the video before the league initially suspended Mr. Rice. The private investigation with no legal authority did not include any contact with the law enforcement official who showed the AP video of the incident. The officer backed up his claims by showing the AP a 12-second voicemail from an NFL office number dated April 9, in which a woman verifies receipt of the video and says: “You’re right, it’s terrible.” Source: http://www.post-gazette.com/sports/...estigation-Ray-Rice-case/stories/201501080287
just like former fbi director screwy louie freeh's report on the penn state mess a few years ago.so full of holes it looks like swiss cheese.if he found any evidence against the league do folks actually think they would let anybody outside of the league know? that report should be used as toilet paper in the league office.
