Former Raiders wide receiver Henry Ruggs, who has pleaded guilty in connection with a fatal DUI crash, faces a sentencing hearing at the Regional Justice Center in Las Vegas.
What a joke of a sentence. Doesn’t matter that he had no priors. He murdered someone. When you drive that fast nothing is accidental. Shame on Clark county for accepting this ridiculous plea deal.
Just another black criminal. No surprise. He'll serve his time, lose his money and end up back in the ghetto. Let the ghetto serve his real punishment.
You can be certain that bribes were paid on this one. Most likely Ruggs' black former teammates came up with the money where Ruggs' own funds had already been spent on legal bills. Remember, this is Vegas, where prostitution is legal.
We live in a society where those in authority treat power and money like it's everything, and love and freedom like it's nothing. Ruggs represented power and money to the court, while Tina Tintor and her dog Max "only" represented love and freedom. And so the crimes and the injustice in the wake of these crimes continue. And so the rest of us live in perpetual fear of becoming victims of those who worship power and money – those who commit the crimes against us, and those in power who make sure they get off with the least punishment possible.
There’s no doubt in my mind that Ruggs won’t somehow be back in the league if he gets out in 5 years or less. Similar to Vick, probably gonna get a cheap deal with a team bc of his speed and if he lives through prison, he will be shredded so of course someone will take a chance on him. Just gonna have to wait and see
This is so sad I remember when this happened that poor girl was burning alive in her car the people on the scene said although they heard screams the fire was so intense they couldn't help her 😢 May she rest in peace 💔
He was drunk driving celebrating something he accomplished. Plus he was a top 5 Receiver in the NFL. he made 1 simple mistake, and all you WHITE people wants him to rot behind bars but will let a women walk away with a free body🫤USA weird asfk
Now if it would have been a white man killing a black girl – well then you would get your 20 to life sentence and that still wouldn't be enough – sorry to get racy but that's the truth.
Not enough time for driving like he was crazy!! Being pissy drunk and driving 100 miles a hour is plain homicide!!!!!!! The video showed that girls car burning and everyone trying to help hisA$$ from his car. Saying “ Help him he’s a famous football player!! Get him some help!”!!!!! Nobody tried to help her.There should be more time given to him.
That's it. Smh
This guy went from being a potential superstar millionaire to being a prisoner all because of alcohol.

When does he get sentenced for killing the dog?
Is that separate?
What about the neighbors that had to hear the screams of the victims as they were barbecued alive?
Isn’t Henry the fastest man alive?
They have tons of money. Call a friend, player, uber, taxi, anybody. Just call for a ride.
