Are you ready? &#8220;Embattled NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell continued his push to show the league is taking domestic violence and sexual assault matters seriously, announcing in a letter to teams and staff members Monday morning four women will help shape the league\u2019s policies going forward. Anna Isaacson, the NFL\u2019s vice president of community affairs and philanthropy, will now be in an expanded role as vice president of social responsibility.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The league also has retained as senior advisors Lisa Friel, the former head of the Sex Crimes Prosecution Unit in the New York County District Attorney\u2019s Office; NO MORE co-founder Jane Randel; and Rita Smith, the former executive director of the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RayRiceProsecutePIX.jpg\"\/><BR\/>Those four women are now in executive positions at the NFL to help shape league policy on domestic violence and sexual assault matters. Goodell wrote in his letter, &#8220;We are continuing to develop our organization to strengthen our ability to address the wide range of issues we face and other changes in our office will be announced soon. Our goal is to make a real difference on these and other issues. We know that we will be judged by our actions and their effectiveness.&#8221;<\/line><\/p>\n<p>Joey in Austin, Texas. Great to have you on the program, Joey. How are you?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I\u2019m doing great. Dittos from the liberal bastion of Austin, Texas.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Great to have you with us, Joey. Make it count.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Okay. I hope you can hear me well. I want to know the answer to this question, and I am a longtime listener, so I think I very well do know the answer, but I\u2019m going to ask you: Why has no one called out the prosecutor in this case as &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You mean the Ray Rice case?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yes.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, they have. No, no. The prosecutor has an answer. The prosecutor says, for all the circumstances in this case, this was not a case where the alternatives were probation or jail. Jail was not part of what was possible. Given the circumstances that people who wanted more action from the prosecutor, the law didn\u2019t permit it. The prosecutor\u2019s being very open about this, because people are asking and have been asking for the past number of days in a very focused way, like what you said, &#8220;You know, the real point here is prosecution, the real law. Why did the real law do nothing?&#8221; This prosecutor, his name is McClain, I think, has stepped up and said, &#8220;You people are misjudging what the alternatives in this case were.&#8221; And there wasn\u2019t an alternative where the guy goes to jail. It\u2019s just that simple. Use the tools that I had available to me based on the law.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: The prosecutor is a guy named James McClain, and he said that first time offenders usually aren\u2019t prosecuted, but he did say that the alternatives, that the people out for blood, didn\u2019t exist in his world. I forget what he said. It wasn\u2019t a case of probation versus jail, those are the alternatives. I forget what he said, but he made it clear that he did not cavalierly dismiss the case. And we will be back. Don\u2019t go away.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Here\u2019s what the prosecutor said. The prosecutor is James P. McClain. He\u2019s the Atlantic County prosecutor dealing with the Ray Rice situation. He said, &#8220;What people need to understand, the choice was not PTI [pretrial intervention] versus five years in state prison.&#8221; See, Rice opted for an intervention program.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s where you agree to go into state-sponsored rehab, essentially, to get yourself fixed and do it right. You can save everybody a lot of trouble by not having to send you to jail, and if you complete the program, fine. They expunge the record and do all of that. What McClain says is, &#8220;People need to understand: The choice was not PTI versus five years\u2019 state prison.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The choice was not PTI versus the No Early Release Act on a 10-year sentence. The parameters, as they existed, were: Is this a PTI case or a probation case?&#8221; So am I gonna put him on probation or am I gonna get him into pretrial intervention? &#8220;Without serious bodily injury, McClain couldn\u2019t charge Rice with anything more than third-degree aggravated assault.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;McClain [the prosecutor] said that, in New Jersey, third-degree aggravated assault charges carry a presumption of no incarceration, even with a conviction at trial.&#8221; He responded to this because so many people are like our guy &#8212; the caller from Austin, Joey &#8212; who said, &#8220;You know, you can talk about Goodell all you want in this, but what about the prosecutor? Why didn\u2019t they do anything to the guy?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>So McClain is answering it now. Take it as you will, believe him or not, but that\u2019s what he said. <a href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=8395\">Now, ESPN,<\/a> ever on the case now&#8230; In fact! In fact! In fact! I gotta find it, but stand by starting at audio sound bite number five. Anyway, ESPN is claiming that less than 1% of domestic violence assault cases in New Jersey end with what Ray Rice got. This is pretrial intervention.<\/p>\n<p>This is why people are looking at the prosecutor, Mr. McClain here, and wondering if he wasn\u2019t star-struck and groupie-like and let Ray Rice off easy. <a href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=8390\">Because ESPN<\/a> claims less than 1% of domestic violence assault cases in New Jersey end with what Ray Rice got: PTI. According to ESPN, &#8220;[O]ver the past four years in New Jersey, there have been 15,029 domestic violence cases involving assault.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;A total of 70 &#8212; 0.47% &#8212; have wound up in pretrial intervention&#8221; that the prosecutors gave rice. So ESPN is claiming that Rice got a sweetheart deal, because he\u2019s in that less than 1% &#8212; less than half a percent, actually &#8212; group of people. So the prosecutor\u2019s coming under fire, the prosecutor\u2019s responding, and then ESPN &#8212; the nonpolitical (ahem) sports network &#8212; is responding (paraphrased), &#8220;Well, you know, that doesn\u2019t really jibe here.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Because it looks to us like Ray Rice did get a sweetheart deal. Now, this is from the Boston Herald, and this is from an opinion piece thinking that the prosecutors fumbled the ball, you know, didn\u2019t do the right thing. &#8220;&#8216;Once they\u2019ve made a decision to give pretrial intervention, it\u2019s a promise from the government,\u2019 said Joe Rem, a former New Jersey prosecutor. &#8216;It\u2019s like a contract, and the government can\u2019t start breaking its contracts.'&#8221; The government couldn\u2019t go back on the deal once it was made.<\/p>\n<p>But he didn\u2019t have to make the deal. See, no matter what is said here, they\u2019re still gonna come down on everybody involved, because it\u2019s assumed that Ray Rice got away with it, until he didn\u2019t. It\u2019s clear that there are a lot of people who want Ray Rice in jail, think he should have been in jail, and they\u2019re gonna take the angle that he would have been if it weren\u2019t for sweetheart treatment and groupie-like-sports-stars-get-off-easy treatment, this kind of thing.<\/p>\n<p>Now, the Boston Herald says, &#8220;There are some narrow circumstances when prosecutors can go back on their promise, but they are rare. Basically, Rice or his attorney would have had to lie about what happened, and that assumes that prosecutors didn\u2019t already have the tape &#8212; a huge assumption,&#8221; \u2019cause they did have it. It doesn\u2019t matter. Folks, this isn\u2019t gonna go away.<\/p>\n<p>No matter how much you wish it would, no matter how much you wish you could just tune in sports and see sports, this isn\u2019t gonna go away, because now Goodell has hired four women to oversee the entire NFL policy-making apparatus on sexual abuse or spousal abuse and what have you. (interruption) The Official Program Observer, Bo Snerdley, with a question from the host.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s the question? (interruption) He\u2019s appealing his suspension to the NFL. Ray Rice is essentially &#8212; and I think he\u2019s gotta do this. He\u2019s basically appealing on double jeopardy. He was given a two-game suspension and fined $500,000, and nothing changed in what he had done except a video showed up, and everybody was outraged by the video and a lot of pressure on the commissioner.<\/p>\n<p>So here are the stages: Ray Rice is seen in a video dragging his wife unconscious out of the hotel. He goes through the New Jersey legal system and gets pretrial intervention. The NFL comes along, examines it, examines it, takes some time, gives him two games and a half million-dollar fine &#8212; which means if that had held he\u2019d be playing this coming Sunday. (interruption) Well, Goodell does. Goodell is the&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s Goodell or there used to be a guy named Ray Anderson. There are a couple of people in the NFL now that are appeal judges. Art Shell is one, I think, former coach and player for the Raiders, and I forget who else. Look, I\u2019m really speaking out of school. I don\u2019t know that those are the guys that will hear it. But forget that for a second. The reason Rice has to do it is \u2019cause he\u2019s claiming double jeopardy.<\/p>\n<p>He said (summarized), &#8220;Look, I got two games,&#8221; and the Players Association, they\u2019re the union. They\u2019ve gotta stand up for the guy for future events like this. This is his living. &#8220;Okay, I got two games and a half million-dollar fine, and I didn\u2019t do anything else, and now the next day I\u2019m out of the game forever? Where the justice? The legal system didn\u2019t put me in jail. The legal system didn\u2019t tell me I can\u2019t earn a living anymore.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The legal system didn\u2019t do anything. All of a sudden I\u2019ve got two games. I went and I told the truth to the commissioner! I told \u2019em what happened in the elevator.&#8221; This is his story. &#8220;I told \u2019em I slugged my wife. I did not lie about it.&#8221; Ozzie Newsome, the general manager of the Ravens, said, &#8220;Yep, Ray told the commissioner the truth.&#8221; The commissioner is saying, &#8220;Weeeell, it was ambiguous what he told us. We\u2019re not sure on some things.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But they\u2019re appealing because it\u2019s essentially double jeopardy.<\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s being penalized twice for the same event. The only difference is the appearance of the second video from inside the elevator. I think as a legal matter, the players association, the union, has to appeal this, regardless the outcome. They\u2019ve gotta make a stand on the double jeopardy aspects alone. Even though the NFL is not the legal system of the United States, the same principle still applies. I have no idea how it\u2019s gonna turn out. I doubt he\u2019s gonna win the appeal. I mean, in this climate, to think anybody in the NFL is gonna relent on the permanent suspension?<\/p>\n<p>Snerdley, there\u2019s nothing about fairness going on here. This is all politics now, bud. Every shred of this is politics. What\u2019s it gonna take for people to figure this out? It\u2019s all politics. You turn on ESPN, the NFL Network, it\u2019s all politics now, pure and simple. So that\u2019s why Ray Rice has appealed. People are offended at that, I gotta tell you. How dare he appeal? He should be a man and take it and be glad he\u2019s still alive. Now he\u2019s out there appealing this because he is claiming that he\u2019s been deprived of ever earning a living in this business again.<\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t know if he can sue. I mean, anybody can sue anybody. He could try. I mean, whether it gets anywhere and whether he would do it, I doubt he\u2019s gonna do that. Look, the suspension is not permanent. It\u2019s for a year. He could be reinstated. But if he sues \u2019em, he\u2019s not gonna be. (interruption) What? No, it\u2019s indefinite, exactly. But it\u2019s at least this season. But there have been all kinds of indefinite suspensions that have been lifted after a year. Defensive coordinator for the Saints, Gregg Williams. The coach of the Saints, Sean Payton, every case has been different. But all of this is a sideshow to what really is happening here in the terms of the politics of this.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: By the way, a point of clarification on the Ray Rice appeal. Double jeopardy is a federal proposition. It probably does not apply here in a legal sense, but I have heard an NFL PA, players union rep, say that the reason they\u2019re going to appeal this is that Ray Rice was punished twice for the same event and it kept getting worse when nothing changed. So double jeopardy is a federal constitutional premise, and I don\u2019t know that the NFL even has a double jeopardy premise. You know, the NFL policy manual, the rules of the game are probably, you know, an eighth of an inch thick, and the rest of the policy is probably the Smithsonian library on criminal activity and the sanctions for it. It\u2019s just incredible here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: USA Today.
