Poor Jameis he seems to have problem remembering to pay, stole soda from Burger King.

Cops: Winston was in trouble before

Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston was involved in two minor incidents unrelated to an investigation into accusations that he sexually assaulted a woman, though he was not arrested or charged in either case, police records show.

In the first case, Winston and other FSU players were questioned by police in November 2012 after 13 windows were broken at an apartment complex near Doak Campbell Stadium after an apparent BB gun battle. In the second case, a Burger King employee called police in July to complain that Winston was stealing soda. The Associated Press obtained the records from Tallahassee city officials after filing a request.

Attorney Timothy Jansen, who is representing Winston in the sexual assault investigation, said he was unaware of the incidents.

Winston, 19, is a leading Heisman Trophy candidate who has guided the Seminoles to a No. 2 ranking. He is currently under investigation after a woman accused him of sexually assaulting her a little more than a week after he was questioned about the BB gun incident.

Police did not hand over information about the alleged sexual assault to prosecutors until earlier this month. The interim police chief said the case was placed on inactive status after police were told the alleged victim no longer wanted to prosecute the case. An attorney representing the accuser has said her client never wanted to drop the charges.

ESPN has reported that a DNA report shows that Winston's DNA was found in the underwear of the accuser. While Jansen has suggested the sex was consensual, the victim has put out a statement maintaining she was raped.

In the BB gun investigation, Tallahassee police records show officers were called to the Legacy Suites apartments on Nov. 27, 2012, two days after management said 13 windows had been damaged by players shooting at each other.

Both Winston and his roommate at the time, defensive end Chris Casher, told officers the next day that they had been involved in a series of "battles" involving FSU players that had been going on for a month. They denied shooting any BB guns themselves but said someone threw eggs at their window and shot at them with a paintball launcher.

Police found BBs littering the ground and saw windows in several apartments with small holes.

Police records show the apartment manager, Dave Sudekum, initially wanted to evict Winston and three other tenants but decided to not press charges after an FSU athletic department official promised that the players would pay for the damage.

Sudekum initially told a reporter this week that a previous management company had been involved. When told that his name was on the report, he then said he couldn't remember the incident, which happened the day after FSU lost to the University of Florida. Winston, a redshirt freshman this season, did not play in the game. FSU athletic department officials have not responded to emailed questions about the incident.

In the Burger King incident, Winston came in with three men but did not order food. An employee, who recognized him, first saw him using ketchup cups to take soda. He asked for a water cup after she told him to stop, but he admitted he would use it for soda and filled it repeatedly with soda over her objections, the report said.

The report says Winston was never interviewed about the incident because the restaurant declined to prosecute.

State Attorney Meggs said Wednesday that he doubted the BB gun incident would have much bearing on the sexual assault investigation.

Attorney Patricia Carroll, who is representing the alleged sexual assault victim, did not return calls for comment.

An interesting follow on question for that would be, "Does he share?  His crabs, I mean?"

 

[Sirhornsalot]

I can just see it now . . . every game FSU plays in someone else's stadium, fans will throw crabs on the field. Florida, for sure.

Alabama store selling Jameis Winston crab legs

Listen, it's hard not to laugh when you hear a story about a Heisman winning quarterback getting busted for taking some crab legs from a grocery store without paying for them. Whether an accident or not, there was actually a press conference about crab legs on Wednesday. The story is just that ridiculous.

And in the world of college football, where grudges last forever, people won't be finished making fun of Jameis Winston for it any time soon. And this is one of the best things I've seen so far, including all the fun Photoshops
