Maurice Washington Faces Charges

[Nebfanatic]

@knapplc I had forgotten the details, thanks for clearing that up. But like you said, unwise but not heinous to keep the video most likely. I agree with everything you said. @CapoValley I understand where you are coming from. It gives people the opportunity to talk bad about Frost and Nebraska. I think what RedDenver suggested would have been the best course of action in my mind. Issue a multigame suspension because of this incident then reserve the right to punish further if new information comes to light. 

 

@4skers89 that is exactly how I see it. Seems like common sense to me but I understand the courts complicate the matter.

I'm going to say that an adult keeping a video on his phone of a 15 year old girl engaged in any kind of sexual act, consensual, coerced, or otherwise is pretty damn bad.  Even if that adult is 18 years old

Severe and Benning gave a rough summary of the text messages between Mo and the girl.  Mo and the girl used to date when he lived in California.  She texted him in Spring 2018, congratulating him on signing with Nebraska and turning things around and heading to college.  Mo thought that she was being nice to him and texted something about hooking back up again.  She denied Mo's advances, Mo got mad, and texted the video of her sexual act.  Her parents then got involved and had her text to Mo to send the video again.  That's when Mo sent the video again, and her parents started working with the police and prosecutors.

 

Do you know if this is in some kind of public documentation? How was this account obtained?

 

In other words, that's exactly what I remember hearing on the interwebs originally but now I'm trying to understand the source of this info.

Mike'l Severe has seen the text transcripts and the video, and was discussing it with Benning on today's show.  Mike'l was able to see the transcripts from the California charges, as they were released to the OWH, and Severe read them when he worked there.

When he is 17 its not that bad but he better delete it on his 18th birthday or his an awful person. A child pornographer in fact. Please. It isn't right but stop with this. What he did is teenage stupidity not a heinous sexual act.

There is a logical reason for the 1st half suspension. While Mo is waiting for his legal proceedings to move forward, he has been advised to keep his nose clean. He did not. Bam - suspension.

 

Is that what happened? Who knows. But it's another logical explanation for what happened, and why the same didn't happen to the other weed dudes.

 

That's an excellent reason why the university failing to make a statement about the suspension is ham-fisted.

I was going to edit and say that the 3-4 game suspension could be increased based on the severity of the legal outcome for appearance sake.  Unfortunately, if too serious Frost may have no other choice than to kick Mo off the team.  I believe there is enough known about this case nobody would fault Frost for issuing what seems to be a reasonable punishment now.  It's possible that this case finishes in November at which point such a punishment would really hurt the team and I'm willing to bet money that Frost will not hesitate to do so and Mo will be missed when he is needed most.  If Frost was only concerned about winning games he would have issued a 3-4 game suspension now.

It's likely that there will be no true trial or judgement until 2020, which will be well after this season is complete.

So if a minor gets nudes at age 17 and later breaks up with that person while still 17 but still has the nudes on their phone when they turn 18, is that the same thing or different to you?

You keep making that assumption but it doesn't make it the truth.
