WR Donte Stallworth Was Distraught Making 911 Call
Filed Under: , , ,

Sounding distressed and concerned, NFL star Donte Stallworth pleas for an ambulance can be heard in the 911 call he placed just minutes after he struck and killed a man on the MacArthur Causeway. "Ok, listen, listen...This guy just ran in front of my car and he's (expletive) laying in the street dude...I, I," Stallworth says in the call, released yesterday for the first time. "So you hit somebody in the street?" the dispatcher asks. "Yeah, you gotta send an ambulance right now man," Stallworth responds. Stallworth is serving a month in jail after reaching a deal with Miami prosecutors earlier this month after the Cleveland Browns wide receiver was charged with DUI manslaughter. Stallworth struck and killed 59-year-old Mario Reyes with his Bentley after a night of clubbing in Miami Beach in the early hours of March 14.

The last 5 seconds are creepy. I think that's when he gets a look at the dude he hit after getting out of his car.

This is what I have been saying for a long time. I think Stallworth took the deal because he felt somewhat responsible because he had been drinking, but also felt that there was nothing he could of done. If this is the case then he is a standup individual and more of a man then most. We all make mistakes but it takes a real man to admit when he did somethign wrong when he could of gotten off free

Well wasnt there a report also that stated that the prosecuors would have to prove 100% that alcohol caused him not to be able to stop otherwise this case would be thrown out. I dont know about you but I dont think I could stop going 45 or whatever he was going and someone jumped 5 feet in front of my car. This may be stretching it but does anyone know the mental state of the guy who got hit? Could he have done it on purpose? I dont think I have heard anyone question this yet

Wrong - its up to the defense to contradict the police record that he was liquored, or at least introduce reasonable doubt to the degree of the liquoring. As to the mental state of the victim, I can see that your intentions are good but misguided - a drunken professional athlete killed a man (who may have came in front of his vehicle under extremely 'short notice') and we can't work to make excuses for the perpetrator, if we are to consistently hold these guys to Goodell's high standard than Stallworth deserves exponentially more than Mike Vick got.
And as a sidebar - Donte was very respectful and level headed with the operator so I think that will benefit him down the line, but Mike Vick got jobbed.
