Haynesworth Charged With Sexual Abuse

WASHINGTON -- Washington Redskins defensive lineman Albert Haynesworth was charged Tuesday with misdemeanor sexual abuse for allegedly fondling the breast of his server in a hotel restaurant in Washington.

A grand jury returned an indictment formally charging Haynesworth over the alleged incident at a downtown Washington hotel in the early hours of Feb. 13. If convicted, the 29-year-old two-time All-Pro faces up to six months in jail and a fine of up to $1,000.

According to the U.S. attorney's office, the government's evidence shows Haynesworth slid a credit card down the front of the server's dress and fondled her breast.

Haynesworth's attorney, A. Scott Bolden, called the charge disappointing and regretful and said it would be a difficult case for the government to prove. Haynesworth is innocent and several witnesses would vouch that the alleged conduct never happened, Bolden said.

"We maintain his innocence, and now the fight begins," Bolden said.

Telephone and e-mail messages left for Haynesworth's agent, Chad Speck, were not immediately returned. Redskins spokesman Tony Wyllie said the team referred all calls to Haynesworth and his agent.

Haynesworth is also currently facing charges in Virginia for allegedly punching a man during a road-rage assault. His trial is scheduled for May. At one point last summer, he was also involved in lawsuits from a bank, an exotic dancer, a man injured in an automobile accident and complaints from his ex-wife that he wasn't paying for her health insurance or their children's bills.

Haynesworth has also dealt with his share of on-the-field problems over the past year. He had a tumultuous 2010 season with the Redskins that ended when he was suspended without pay for the final four games of the season for "conduct detrimental to the club."

Haynesworth had constantly feuded with coach Mike Shanahan, skipped offseason workouts and failed to pass a conditioning test at the start of training camp.

He did not start a game last season, despite being in the second year of a seven-year, $100 million contract, and is expected to be traded or released by the Redskins this offseason.

This dude is just a mess. It's sad to see a young man waste his promising career like he has. He just has no clue what to do with his life, and it's ending up completely messing not only with his football, but with his own personal life outside of the game. Horrible decision making from this guy.

He's just becoming a train wreck. He also was an issue, but now he is a HUGE problem.

This guy is the definition of "all the talent, no brain"

I hate when athletes screw around their lives like Haynesworth is doing. I'm surprised that Washington hasn't gotten rid of him yet.

This freaking guy. I mean hey, I bet she looked good so it's hard not to resist from doing a little fondling. Hopefully she looked good and it wasn't just grab because they're there. It happens.

As for him though, all this stuff just keeps piling on.

During his recent arrest for sexual assault, Albert Haynesworth reportedly told police that his female accuser "is just upset that I have a white girlfriend."
"I know what this is about, she is just upset that I have a white girlfriend," said Haynesworth. "I couldn't tell you the last time I dated a black girl. She was trying to get with me." The accuser's story is completely different, alleging that Haynesworth fondled the woman's breast. Haynesworth reportedly described the woman, a bar waitress, as "a little black girl."

This guy is a complete fucking retard.
