Von Miller potential witness in bar murders case

[Denver Native (Carol)]

DENVER - It's not entirely clear why Denver prosecutors have decided to list Denver Bronco linebacker Von Miller as a potential witness in a high-profile death penalty case, but newly released court documents indicate the Denver District Attorney's Office is reserving the right to call Miller to the stand during the sentencing phase of the trial should it see fit.

The case involves the deaths of five people inside Fero's Bar and Grill on October 17, 2012. Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty against Dexter Lewis, 23. Two co-defendants have already pleaded guilty and are awaiting sentencing.

Von Miller's name appears along with dozens of other names in a court filing obtained by 9News. The motion is part of a standard disclosure to the defense of people who could be called to the stand during the trial. It is filled with police officers and firefighters names, but near the end of the list Miller's name and correct date of birth appears in a subsection labeled "lay witnesses." In the motion, Miller is listed as "a possible acquaintance of (a friend of Lewis) and may testify about prior events and the Defendant's attire." 9News is seeking clarification of this line from the Denver District Attorney's Office.

Jimminy ******* Christmas.

[Northman]

What the ****?

[slim]

What in the world is going on with Von?

[Poet]

Okay, I highly doubt he was involved with the murder.

Story on what happened at Fero's - scary if Von was a friend of Lewis

[slim]

Okay, I highly doubt he was involved with the murder.

Yeah, me too. But why is he friends with this scumbag?

His decision making is really bizarre. I wonder if he understands how much he has to lose?

[Poet]

Bronco players and night clubs have a bad track record.

[Northman]

Okay, I highly doubt he was involved with the murder.

Yea, very true. BUT..... he was recently buying a gun (not a crime) but shit if he is hanging around with people committing murders that isnt a good sign. I just dont get it.....

[Poet]

Yeah, me too. But why is he friends with this scumbag?

His decision making is really bizarre. I wonder if he understands how much he has to lose?

Maybe he kept him around for protection? Or maybe he met the guy and the guy was a good friend to him. I had a buddy who was always there for me whenever I needed him. Good, loyal friend and had a lot of respect for the guy.

Then he had a life crisis, started to sell crack and ended up killing a guy.

Shit happens.

[Denver Native (Carol)]

Okay, I highly doubt he was involved with the murder.

I don't think he was either - however; as the article says - if he was a friend of Lewis - what kind of people are he hanging out with????

Some guy is on talking with dmac and Al right now, and this guy knows every thing that went on, and he is saying that Von was not at Fero's that night.

[camdisco24]

Von needs counseling on decision making and the idea of "guilty by association".
I dont get how someone of his profile is even attached to stories like this. Time to grow up Von, you become who you hang around. Time for a change.

Yeah, it may be nothing. But with everything that's happened in the last month or so, I don't know what to think.

I totally understand. I think Von needs a white woman.

Witness=/=suspect. Being a witness means he didn't do anything wrong. Nothing to see here folks. :coffee:

I am done with Von Miller. Let's move on. Draft other Stud LB.

Association is the problem here, IMO.

No.

It sounds like he is more a friend of a friend of the guy that killed those people.

[Poet]

No.

The league definitely wants to play against a team with Von, Atkins, Dunlap, Johnson and Harrison.

It'd be fine! FINE I TELL YA!

[Devilspawn]

We'll take him. Our pass rush is abysmal. It'll be the perfect matchup since he is acting like a typical Raider, yes?

[Denver Native (Carol)]

From the 9 news article:


In the motion, Miller is listed as "a possible acquaintance of (a friend of Lewis)

http://www.9news.com/news/article/351104/339/Von-Miller-on-witness-list-in-death-penalty-case

The guy who called dmac/Al, stated that Von was NOT a friend of Lewis, but Von was a friend of the youngest victim. They have not yet posted the segment yet on the fan website, but this guy knew all about this. I was just not able to listen to everything he said.

[Denver Native (Carol)]

Also, from 9news article - updated from original article


The Denver Broncos said they are aware that Miller has been listed as a potential witness in the case. The Broncos have been told Miller had zero-direct involvement in the Fero's Bar murders.

except he has talent-- not a good fit in oakland. . . :wave:

[Dzone]

Von has let down his teammates , the Bronco Organization and Bronco fans. He should be utterly ashamed of himself. Problem is, he probably isnt and will get in trouble again. Sounds like he has a dark private life that few know about.

Relax. There's conflicting reports. Lots of people know people who get killed, which is a sad reflection of society, not just Von Miller.

Totally agree - they now have it posted on the fan website with the guy who called dmac/al, and who knows about all of this

[jhildebrand]

I wouldn't necessarily equate acquaintance and friend from the article. For all we know he could be a target of extortion and other BS. Either way, he has got to do a better job insulating himself.

[Nomad]

Put yourself in a bubble, Von, or at least, until your BRONCO days are over:lol:..........no weed either:D

[Devilspawn]

I will give you props for that witty comeback, you *******. :laugh: We're working on it.

[Nomad]

Von has a message for all us worry warts. :D


http://youtu.be/zaGUr6wzyT8

I'm not worried because I've become numb to the NFL players of today, I guess a player like Champ Bailey is rare.....outstanding player and stays out of trouble.

BTW, I can't stomach Bob Marley, what's his message. Most weed smokers I know worship Bob Marley:lol:

[CrazyHorse]

At least he's not a suspect. *cough* Hernandez *cough*

[WTE]

Okay, I highly doubt he was involved with the murder.

Yeah, like I initially thought Hernandez was an innocent bystander too.

[Nomad]

Yeah, like I initially thought Hernandez was an innocent bystander too.

Von didn't go to Florida or Miami, so he was just a bystander.

Do you think someday he will kill multiple people like Hernandez?

As many good things that have happened in the past couple seasons shit like this just messes it up.

I am ashamed of Miller right now. Had nothing but respect for him and now he just makes the Broncos the laughing stock of the NFL.

I bet this story just made your day didnt it?

[ShaneFalco]

BTW, I can't stomach Bob Marley, what's his message.
Took many stands against gov corruption in Jamaica, i believe one time they actually tried to kill him before he went on stage.

His message was strong individual rights and peace through music and celebration.

Bob Marley sucks! Bring it beer snob.





I actually really like Bob Marley's music. Redemption Song is arguably one of the finest songs ever written, it is an amazing example of brilliant song writing. But, I can't pass up a chance to knock the beer snob around a little, so my little white lie was worth it.

[dogfish]

so, hopefully von is just incidentally invloved in the investigation-- but it kinda feels like being kicked when you're down for the news to come out today. . .

given the darren williams tragedy, i hope that all of our young guys are bright enough to avoid gangbangers, and spots where they hang out. . .

[Al Wilson 4 Mayor]

Bob Marley saw him self as a civil rights activist for black people. Seeing mostly white people when he toured the world was a source of disappointment to him.

Many moons ago I actually wrote a paper in college on Marley. He was very passionate for his people.

"... nothing but respect"
what was there to respect about von other than his football skill?
His vision for children campain was nothing but a self indulgent 'look at me' promotion that celebrated his DANCE instead of the actual SACK.
he couldnt just give money to a charity for each sack, he had to draw attention to his sef-indulgent dancing on the field.
what is 'respectable' about Von?
really, enlighten me.
he wears A BRONCO UNIFORM ?

I wouldn't wish Marvin Lewis on you. I'll give him this, when Mike Brown finally let him have more say on the type of player we signed, he got control of the locker room again. When he first showed up, he cleaned out the locker room and the next year took a poorly talented team to a .500 record. It was awesome. Over time, the owner forgot that the successful rosters mostly had decent guys. Hence the influx of douche in the 04/05 draft class that lead the Bengals to their reputation. Now that it's not as bad, Lewis and Zimmer can really drop the hammer/mentor on character issue guys.

Initially yes. He starts going all BMarsh on us then I lose respect. Every Bronco starts with a clean slate....they f#$k up again and again and again then I lose respect.

I don't expect them to be choir boys when we draft them but I do expect them to honor their contracts when they don the great orange and blue. Fair enough for you?

Good for him. I don't care for reggae music, so I don't know what bob Marley sang about. I don't have a personal problem with him or that he smokes.

great athletic talent should not garner respect, only admiration.
an O lineman and QB should respect his talent, but fans blur the lines of respect and admiration in their hero worshiop and loyalty.
