Seahawks Insider - Mini-camp and Rocky Bernard

Thursday, May 29th, 2008

The Seahawks will have four days of one-practice voluntary mini-camps starting next Monday. Defensive tackle Rocky Bernard will not be present for at least the Monday session because I have confirmed that he still has a pre-trial hearing on his domestic assault arrest in Seattle Municipal Court at 10 a.m. Monday morning, a half hour before practice begins. According to the Washington state courts web site, Lofa Tatupu still has not been charged with a DUI.

when this story cracked everyone said it smelt really fishy. It didnt add up. I havent heard anything since. Frank is there any info on this. I remember everyone saying it sounded hard to belive that if Rocky hit a woman let alone anyone there would be a mark or something. I am a big guy like 6'6 260 if Ryan Plackamier {spelling} hit me I would get a shiner or something. Probably a concusion lol.

So what is the normal time between arrest and charges in Washington state for DUIs? Is Lofa even going to be charged? I'm a little shocked that someone who blew what he blew on the test is not already indicted for the crime. Does Lofa have a lawyer yet? Is he dragging this out?

Frank-
I've been seeing a number of f/a's coming to the headquarters----any word on who they're looking at?

I heard the police officer didnt properly read him his rights until after he was already heading to the police station.The officer had to pull over and read them after the fact. If that is indeed true i would bet he is never charged with DUI.
