Second degree murder conviction, the girlfriend also was found guilty of second degree murder.Reaches a plea deal on murder charge of his girlfriend’s 5 year old child. Entered an Alford plea. Sentenced to life with possibility of parole after 10 years. Also, sentenced on felony child abuse, sentences run consecutively.
His lawyer has Weis's elite recruiting ability.How do you get a plea deal for that
Ouch!We were told he’s a RKG!
If you followed the OJ murder trial, you understand.How do you get a plea deal for that
I don't think CW was like a problem guy, was he? From a bad upbringing, I thought he was pretty middle class. Something just clearly went very wrong for him. America's a pretty insane, evil society, it certainly can be. Somewhere or other he lost his ability to keep walking the line. But I guess it was drug addiction that got him started down that dark path. I wonder what the whole story was.Very tragic indeed and disillusioning because I would like to believe his time at ND would have been enough of a positive influence on him to make such acts impossible. That poor child.
They say woman sometimes cry at weddings and men sometimes cry when they get invited to one. That was the case for me when I got invited to my wife's cousins' wedding on the night of the Oklahoma/ND game. My best memory from the wedding was sneaking out to the bar and seeing Cierre's long run. Just a shocking turn of events years later. It is hard to believe he can get parole in 10 years.
I wonder too.I don't think CW was like a problem guy, was he? From a bad upbringing, I thought he was pretty middle class. Something just clearly went very wrong for him.

Cierre has maintained innocence the entire trial, and the "Alford Plea" he entered maintains his assertion of innocence, while accepting Murder 2.I wonder too.
Great open-field cutback runner. In fact, not sure I've seen a better one at ND in my almost 70 years watching. Pure electricity.Very tragic indeed and disillusioning because I would like to believe his time at ND would have been enough of a positive influence on him to make such acts impossible. That poor child.

The plea allows him to plead guilty while maintaining his innocence. What ever did Tony Alford do to deserve that?Cierre has maintained innocence the entire trial, and the "Alford Plea" he entered maintains his assertion of innocence, while accepting Murder 2.
That said, I followed his career through HS, a pretty normal upbringing.
Simply sad all the way around.

Statistically speaking, I'm sure someone who attended Notre Dame is less likely to be a "bad" person than someone who did not. That has to be a fact. To not acknowledge it, would be weird.You did the disillusioning to yourself if you seriously believe that oh just because someone goes to Notre Dame, they're incapable of being a bad person.
Some of you are just really, really weird man.

Far less likely. Notre Dame isn't Georgia or Florida.Statistically speaking, I'm sure someone who attended Notre Dame is less likely to be a "bad" person than someone who did not. That has to be a fact. To not acknowledge it, would be weird.
Besides, the post in question did not convey the sentiment you put forth here.
Thanks Wigglesby. Much appreciated! I spent three years at ND and it is a place of special positivity--so these sorts of things are all the more discouraging. But as you point out there is difference between what someone would like to think and what they must acknowledge.Statistically speaking, I'm sure someone who attended Notre Dame is less likely to be a "bad" person than someone who did not. That has to be a fact. To not acknowledge it, would be weird.

Both are the products of shopping in a different aisle !Maybe Cierre can bunk with Sergio Brown.
You stated that: “America is a pretty insane evil society”I don't think CW was like a problem guy, was he? From a bad upbringing, I thought he was pretty middle class.

The charges were about Wood being a stupid man. I did not see anything from the article that indicated he wanted to kill his own child.You did the disillusioning to yourself if you seriously believe that oh just because someone goes to Notre Dame, they're incapable of being a bad person.
