Haynesworth Indicted for Two Traffic Charges (Police Report included)

Washington Redskins defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth has been indicted in Tennessee on two misdemeanor traffic charges after an accident that seriously injured another driver. District Attorney Kim Helper of Williamson County said Thursday that Haynesworth was indicted this week on charges of reckless driving and having expired registration.

Hogs Haven was able to receive a copy of the Brentwood City police report that was filed for the accident. The two sides of the story are quite conflicting, with the third eye-witness account validating the side of the victim.

The Brentwood City Police report marked that it was daylight, there was no highway construction, the road was dry, and that by observation from the officer, there were no signs of any alcohol or drugs.

Below is the drawing in the police report from the officer. Haynesworth is 'Vehicle 1' and the car involved in the accident is 'Vehicle 2':

Hogs Haven left a message for Haynesworth's lawyer for further details. It's anyone guess how this will end, but the Williamson County DA cannot be happy. Albert was just four days on probation for another carless driving charge when the accident occured, and Albert received another wreckless driving charge in 2006 where he nearly ran someone off the road trying to pass on the shoulder in his Ford F-650.

Excellent detail and reporting!

Isn’t the indictment for violation of his parole for the previous incident?
Which will reinstate those charges which were dropped initally and he was placed on parole.

Dont think so...

The charges for this indictment result solely because of this accident. He has to be guilty of these in order to violate his parole.

I have Al’s lawyer’s number, but I’m sure his phone is ringing off the hook. His secretary has a sweet southern belle accent.

Don't be fooled

Sweet southern belle’s are not always so sweet!

Note..

The picture diagram does not at all bring in all the weaving that was going on prior to the collision. makes sense because then the diagram would probably look like a 4-year old drew it.

Maybe unconfused

The DA had the careless driving charges dropped initially, wanting to take to the grand jury a violation of parole,
A careless driving charge lodged against Tennessee Titan Albert Haynesworth was dismissed today in Brentwood City Court.

Fron the tennessean.com
The dismissal came at the request of District Attorney General Kim Helper, who could bring the case to a grand jury to seek an indictment against Haynesworth for violating probation. Haynesworth was placed on 30 days probation and ordered to pay a $1,000 fine on Dec. 9 as punishment for driving 103 mph on Interstate 65. Haynesworth received the speeding ticket in March.

however as AP provided Haynesworth is being cited for careless driving and expired registration for this accident, no indication of a violation of parole. Again, thanks for being the one insider on top of the Story!

Again,

*probation, NOT parole.

Albert's take

Albert’s side of the accident is pure comedy. “he was driving at or under the speed limit and fish-tailed.” A Ferrari fish tails on a dry road at 65mph???!?! Riiiiiiiiiight! haha.

I just hopes this settles quick for everyone’s sake, including Corey’s.

by Kevin Ewoldt on Mar 12, 2009 3:36 PM EDT reply actions  

I doubt it... on settles quick...

The 103 speeding ticket and probation which occured on Dec 9th, was from a March 08 incident if my reading is correct.

I too think the best thing is to plead and settle, put it behind him and focus on Football. Redskins Football and use the aggression where it belongs on the field….!

Side roads for this guy...

I’m definitely not driving on the Beltway or Dulles Toll Road!! haha.

by Kevin Ewoldt on Mar 12, 2009 3:55 PM EDT up reply actions  

Dry road?

It was an icy road…

Nope...

Al’s agent, Chad Speck, reported it was icy, but he was completely wrong. I have the police report next to me where the cop circled DRY road.

(and thanks, i fixed the ‘probation/parole’ at the end of the article).

Say Cheese!!!!!!

Oh God...

does this make anyone else as nervous as me?

by Rekka on Mar 12, 2009 4:17 PM EDT reply actions  

Not me

two misdemeanor traffic violations.
Stupid..yes!
Causing the accident and injurying someone, unfortunate

Character or anything deeper> no change.
It occured well before his 100M signing, he’s an aggressive driver, who needs to get a driver and stay off the roads.

by dr WNC on Mar 12, 2009 4:27 PM EDT up reply actions  

I'm still not sure about his character...

I’m passed the face stomping thing. But when talking to the victim’s lawyer, Albert has never once visited, called, or asked to see how Corey has been doing since the accident. Seeing the car mangled on the side of the road, it seems like it would be nature for anyone to follow up from what you caused … but Albert didn’t.

by Kevin Ewoldt on Mar 12, 2009 4:35 PM EDT up reply actions  

Character

Yes, if we are speaking of how we think of normal people, but he’s not normal.
He’s a big man,with an angry streak that allows him to play well in a football game.
If he is able to control it off the field and on the field beyond acceptable, I’m ok with it.
The accident was a lack of control and stupid, he should not be driving, so hopefully TN suspends his license which prevents him from getting a license for a long while, he concentrates on football and plays with that chip on his shoulder.

DC Area Fans Should Know Better

I suggest that DC area Redskins’ fans reflect on Haynesworth’s problems.

Those of us who live in the DC area who are Redskin fans know as well as anyone in the country, and better than most, the serious problems with hyper-aggressive, dangerous, reckless drivers. Take a look at the Beltway almost any day. I have been hit by a lunatic driver, and Thank God, I am lucky enough to still be around and healthy enough to type this message. How many aren’t so lucky?

Haynesworth has been charged repeatedly with the type of high-speed, hyper-aggressive driving that results in people losing their lives. I don’t expect Tennessee to laugh this one off, and I don’t think he is going to buy his way out of it. I expect Haynesworth is going to end up doing jail time. Now some fans may say that’s horrible, etc. But you know, if doing some time in the slammer teaches Haynesworth to respect his and other peoples’ lives while on the road — that might teach him the type of control he needs to be a better person and better player.

What we DON’T want to end up happening in DC is that we wind up with a killer on the Redskins football team – and Haynesworth needs to learn a lesson. For his sake and our team’s sake, lets hope he gets a time-out to reflect on what he is done — in jail.

No offense or anything, but,

okay, Grandpa.

Welcome to Hogs Haven, though!! :-)

Explain this statement?

From Redskins 360 at the Washington times

Haynesworth was on probation at the time of the accident.
“It’s not a probation violation per se because we didn’t hear about the new accident until after the expiration of the probation,” Helper said.
Last March, Haynesworth was clocked going 103 mph in a 70-mph zone. He pled guilty to speeding, which carried a $1,000 fine. His 30-day probation started Dec. 9.

Helper is the District Attorney

Wow

Thats news to me. I left a message for Kim two days ago but she never called me back. Albert didn’t report the accident to his insurance or probation officer, the victim’s lawyer did a week later…so that surely pushes everything back of when the DA hears. If the DA allows that to happen why report any accidents???

by Kevin Ewoldt on Mar 13, 2009 8:46 AM EDT up reply actions  

How many $30,000 people do you know…
that go to jail for misdemeanors?
