Clips floating around online only show a fraction of the actual footage. You can see that the owner did allow Lesandra aka Junior to hide behind the counter and his killers bursted through the door, finding him and dragging him out. Modesto Cruz said he recognized the boy and he looked so scared. He also let everyone know he called 911, clarifying rumors he didn’t. Lastly, the footage everyone is seeing of him telling the bloody boy to “get out”, he says he was telling him to run to the hospital one black away because 911 was taking too long.

After ALL that has happened in the NFL with players being accused of sexual abuse , domestic abuse and worse, this fool STILL found himself in this situation. According to USAToday , Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ crab-leg-stealin’ QB Jameis Winston will be suspended for the first three games of the NFL season. Why? Because he groped his Uber driver. The league described the incident as “touching the driver in an inappropriate and sexual manner without her consent”. Last year, when this assault became public knowledge, here is what Jameis said: A news organization has published a story about me regarding an alleged incident involving a female Uber driver from approximately two years ago. The story falsely accuses me of making inappropriate contact with this driver. I believe the driver was confused as to the number of passengers in the car and who was sitting next to her. The accusation is false, and given the nature of the allegation and increased awareness and consideration of these types of matters, I am addressing this false report immediately. At the time of the alleged incident, I denied the allegations to Uber, yet they still decided to suspend my account. I am supportive of the national movement to raise awareness and develop better responses to the concerns of parties who find themselves in these types of situations, but this accusation is false. While I am certain that I did not make any inappropriate contact, I don’t want to engage in a battle with the driver and I regret if my demeanor or presence made her uncomfortable in any way. Now peep THIS bulls#!t azz “apology” that Jameis offered today: “First and foremost, I would like to say I’m sorry to the Uber driver for the position I put you in. It is uncharacteristic of me and I genuinely apologize,” Winston added. “In the past 2 1/2 years my life has been filled with experiences, opportunities and events that have helped me grow, mature and learn, including the fact that I have eliminated alcohol from my life. “For the position I put you in”??? Word? Although I am disappointed in the NFL’s decision, I understand the NFL’s process, and I embrace this as an opportunity to take advantage of the resources available to help me achieve the goals that I have for myself. The audacity. Also, wtf is up with the three games? That’s it? Grope a woman and miss 18.7% of the season. Wow.

(Photo by Greg Doherty/Getty Images) Reality Star Erica Mena Was Asked To Move Because She Was Sitting In Execs Seats Here’s a BOSSIP exclusive from the BET Awards. Anyone who’s ever been to the BET Awards knows there can be a lot of moving around throughout the show and shuffling to make sure that the audience is looking right for the cameras. Last night, that caused a bit of embarrassment for at least one reality star in the audience who was asked to move because she and her date were occupying the seats of a pair of high ranking music industry execs — who had been backstage but returned to watch their artist grace the stage! BOSSIP sources in the building say the chairman and president of black music for Atlantic Records were startled to find Erica Mena and Cliff Dixon in their seats after they returned from visiting an artist backstage. Our source says Mena refused to move when the execs returned and security had to be called! “The people who the seats belonged to came back, but Erica kept saying she wasn’t getting up because BET had put her there,” an eyewitness told BOSSIP exclusively. “When security came they asked them to produce their tickets and they couldn’t, she caused a huge scene in the audience and was basically flipping out over it.” “If you don’t have tickets then you are technically a seat filler and required to move when the real ticket holders show up,” the BOSSIP source added. If you watch Erica’s IG story you can see her sitting within the first few rows in her early videos, while later videos are clearly shot from a seat further from the stage. All we can say is, good thing Erica didn’t have a drink with her. She’s been known to get pretty aggressive during some of her past “Love & Hip-Hop” appearances. How embarrassing! Hit the flip for some of Erica’s better BET weekend moments
