Sapp Slapped With Domestic Battery Charges
June 25th, 2015
Bucs icon Warren Sapp’s legal fees keep soaring while his chances of making big money in media again are plummeting.
Per TMZ.com, Sapp was just hit with all kinds of “battery constituting domestic violence” charges in Las Vegas stemming from an April incident. He’s due in court, per TMZ, on July 23.
There are loads of accusations by Sapp’s girlfriend, including grabbing, pulling and margarita throwing, which appear to be backed up by resort surveillance, per the report. Other accusations, including biting, face-stomping and more, are alleged to have happened when they were alone after leaving the resort.
There are plenty of missing details — for now.
What is clear is that Sapp is extinguishing his media career. And for those who forgot, Sapp needs the money after going bankrupt. Sapp was fired by NFL Network after a 2015 Super Bowl incident revolving around $600, a threesome with hookers, and accusations of violence against him.
How long before Sapp ends up with his own reality show, assuming he’s not serving time?

Actually Joe that’s not a bad idea. A reality show is probably all that Sapp has a shot at any more. Don’t know that he’s interesting enough to carry it off though.
TO certainly didn’t last.

“How long before Sapp ends up with his own reality show, assuming he’s not serving time?”
Zing!
Folks tend to get out of life what they give. Now that the protective cocoon and riches that protect that due to NFL stardom are gone, Warren is now left with trying to figure out how to make life work. And until he becomes enlightened to the fact that how you treat people is how life treats you – he will continue to be fodder for TMZs special type of “reporting”.

Someday God forbid we may see Sapp at some intersection in Tampa holding a sign looking for money….

It makes me very disappointed to even say this. Maybe it should be renamed “The Ring of Performace” instead of the “Ring of Honor”. I used to be a huge WS fan. Now he is just out of control. Mentor? Please.

Unless there is visual evidence or witnesses, the charges will be dropped.
It could be the girlfriend is mad and trying to get revenge because he cheated on her with hookers.
So far as the hookers thing…I really don’t get why anyone would want a hooker. I’ve never paid for sex, and I had no problem getting it. Married now 21 years, turning 50 and I STILL get it when I want it…from my wife.
That said, after reading the story at the time the hooker thing happened, I felt he was within the right. Hooker named a price before they entered his room. He paid. And one in the room she raised the price. He said get the F out, she refused, so he tossed her out.
She made a scene, tried to force her way back in, and he shoved her to keep her out.
If all that is true, he was in the right. If it’s not true, I stand corrected because I haven’t read anything on it since then.
I’ve seen many women claim they were abused when they were not, just to get revenge. (Not against me because I’m cool)
The problem with Sapp is because of his personality, most everyone will believe he is an abuser, even if he isn’t…and he might actually be one. Who really knows?

@Bonzai….i must admit i am woefully short of facts….just like you. Evidence, if there is prosecution, will bring it out…pretty sure Rodney King and a host of others will support my opinion…lol

@B-A-N….grew up in Otown. 2nd Light was a Hotspot. Unfortunately for me my friends always wanted to go to Patrick or Smyrna. Depending on whether it was more important to drink or be seen and surf.

Warren please stay away from women… They just don’t get you… And next time don’t leave a shoeprint on her forehead, that looks as if you shit stomped her face… I recommend you use a pillow case filled with oranges next time… It gets the job done without those incriminating marks and bruises…

Maybe instead of mentoring GMC on how to be a great DT, he should have GMC mentor him in how to not be a terrible human being.
