Charges filed against Sharper - Rape and drug charges

Just like agents broadcasting the overall numbers of a new contract, never believe press reports about the maximum jail term and fine prior to court. Its always high and its almost always wrong.

Sharper might be one of the exceptions, because he is facing charges in multiple states for multiple offenses. It would not be unexpected that one of the jurisdictions won't let their sentence run concurrently. The other problem he has is that as a first time offender, he would be in far better shape. but several of these prosecutions will take likely take place while he is not.

As stated earlier, I'm mostly surprised he's still in the country.

I think the climate is changing regarding rape sentences and rightfully so. Besides being the majority at most universities, women in America have more autonomy and positions of power than ever before. As the poster boy for drugs and date rape, activists will insist that he be punished severely. The general public will as well. Just watch. Gloria Allred is the attorney for one of the L.A. women so you know that this case will be tried in the court of public opinion first. Rightly or wrongly, the public will be convinced that Sharper is a monster before any verdict is given in the first trial.

Sharper's minority status won't help him and neither will his past NFL career. The American public loves to build up its heroes and they love to tear them down too. Other than the fact that he can hire high-priced attorneys, all the advantages that Sharper had before will work against him.

Sharper is a complete dumb ass. He had the notoriety, looks, and money to have a different woman every night if he wanted to. If guilty, to have resorted to drugging nine women in five states over such a short period of time strongly indicates that he's probably been a serial rapist for years. Police across the country need to check their unsolved rape cases and compare the timelines to where Sharper was. If guilty, and he did it nine times, the probability that he did it more than nine times is very high.
