Funkyalligator Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 Well according to the article i just read....the police were there when the secuirty guard was shot and Arrington was in the process of shutting the party down...I am willing to bet that he was in the presence of a police officer when the shooting went down.....

jimster Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 I don't think he'll get sued by the security guard. - I would think there is a certain amount of assumed risk in the job description, not to mention it was reported this didn't happen on Levar's property. - It was someplace that was rented for the party.

flexxskins Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 I have'nt even heard anything mentioned about an investigation as to who shot the poor guy. Also, was it all NFL players in attendance or just Redskins players? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funkyalligator Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 Well considering the article said that the party was hosted by Julian Peterson and Lavar Arrington I'd have to say that it wasn't just a redskins party...anyway it was for charity...

I believe Julian Peterson of the 49er's co-hosted the party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallntfox Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 One of the wire articles said that the party was to celebrate Lavar's 27th birthday which was June 20th....made no mention of a charity function Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chachie Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 It sounds like a statement "written" for Lavar by a lawyer or rep of some kind. (I'm just glad he wanted that out there.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbooma Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 Originally posted by Reaganaut Lavar is going to get is a$$ sued. If others at the party were in the line of fire to say, then yes. The question we should be asking is why do athletes like Lavar and Peterson throw these parties to make money anyway?? With there names associated with the party you know some fellas are going to try and mess things up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romberjo Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 Originally posted by ReaganautLavar is going to get is a$$ sued. Originally posted by jbooma If others at the party were in the line of fire to say, then yes. Huh? I don't know what "in the line of fire to say" means, but assuming you mean that LaVar might face a non-frivolous suit if people other than the security guard were in the line of fire, please tell us what the cause of action (legal theory) would be. If anyone's negligence contributed to the shooting, it would presumably be that of the security company LaVar hired -- and they would be independent contractors, so there would be no respondeat superior liability so LaVar wouldn't be liable for their conduct, even if it was negligent. (I suppose it's conceivable that LaVar was or should have been aware that someone at the party was drinking too much and waving a gun around (muttering about ATV's) and that LaVar did or should have foreseen that something like the shooting might happen if he did not cut off the alcohol, but he nonetheless allowed the guy to continue drinking, and that drinking was a proximate cause of the shooting. But that seems extraordinarily unlikely.) Of course we don't fully know what happened, but given the statement from the police and from LaVar it seems that he will face no sanctions, criminal, civil, or Redskinal.
