3 Football players arrested

Tennessee beat just reported that they did have a arrest warrant.
Well then, they were looking for a particular individual who was wanted for some reason or other by the police before they even went to the party. Only reason to have an arrest warrant in hand upon arrival.

A warrant for a college party? Somebody needs to bust Knox Co Sheriff's Dept's heads. You know the fine organization that had a sheriff with a dui and recently shut down all of the main roads during rush hour to take an officer who was not wounded enough to require an ambulance to the hospital.

so they were just coming by to tell them to turn the music down, gave them a warning, didn't like the response, and pulled a magic warrant out of their asses? With 12 cars in tow?

Changing my tune on this one. Sounds like police were looking for a blockbuster story from that news.

I agree completely. It should have been handled by campus police. It's beyond ridiculous that it took that many police officers to bust that party.

I've only been to Knoxville about 20 times to football games and such and have been confronted by Knoxville's finest on over half of those trips and was arrested my first time in Neyland stadium for doing absolutely nothing but standing in the stands looking at the field for the first time.

This was not on campus therefore it's outside of their jurisdiction. This happened at Quarry Trail, which is across the river.

Good to know the KCSO was in charge of that stupidity and not some of my friends in the KPD.
 
We need to get the players in every Sat/Sun/Mon 6am to drink the fancy apricot health drinks and start running sprints...party/hangover cure, no doubt.
 
Wbir reported that AJ tried to leave the scene after the police was told he was the cohost of the party.
 
It was Knox County Sheriff Office

The KCSO included this description of the incident in the release:

"Just after 12 a.m. on Sunday morning, officers with the Knox County Sheriff’s Office responded to Quarry Trail Apartments located at 1410 Sandstone Drive for a loud party complaint. Officers spoke with Sapp, who lives at the apartment, and he assured them that he would quieten down the party. As the officers left, someone turned the music back up and the party was again warned to be quieter. About 30 minutes later, KCSO officers were advised of a fight outside the apartment. O’Brien presented officers with a fake ID, signifying that he was over 21-years-old. According to the arrest warrant, officers noted that he 'had a very strong odor of alcohol on his breath and became combative' as officers took him into custody."

O'Brien's bond was set at $1500. Johnson and Sapp's were set at $1000 each.
 
For all we know, AJ smarted off and got slapped with "resisting arrest." I've seen it happen with my own eyes. We weren't there so we don't know. Doesn't sound like he pushed a cop or anything so the definition of resisting can be pretty broad. I've smarted off a few times myself when "authorities" are just being douchebags. And I get along just fine in life without being a total sheep.

It's all butch's plan. He had the Knoxville police arrest the three. Now some of the faster better players can be on the field.

I was asleep in my bed

Plus, I would have given them a warning first and the " If I have to come back, everyone is going to jail" speech

I bet as soon as they were on the ground handcuffed You would turn into mr tuff stuff.

It wouldn't surprise me if CBJ sent O'Brien packing.
