The Texas Family Code defines Family Violence as an act by a member of a family or household against another member that is intended to result in physical harm, bodily injury, assault, or a threat that reasonably places the member in fear of imminent physical harm. The law excludes the reasonable discipline of a child and defines abuse as physical injury that results in substantial harm or genuine threat; sexual contact, intercourse, or conduct; or compelling or encouraging the child to engage in sexual conduct.

By definition and for the purposes of family vio- lence reports, ‘family’ includes individuals related by consanguinity (blood) or affinity, marriage or former marriage, biological parents of the same child, foster children, foster parents, and members or former members of the same household (including roommates). Senate Bill 68 of the 77th Legislature amended the Family Code to include “Dating Violence”. The “Dating Relationship” means a relationship between individuals who have or have had a continuing relationship of a romantic or intimate nature.

The definition is so broad it could be anything from compelling a child into sexual conduct to assaulting a former roommate.

It’s almost always the woman with those charges.

Looking now, he’s still married but has been separated from her for years and a couple years ago had a baby with actress Candice Patton. I’d bet money it was one of those two or even a new baby-momma.

That’s probably what it is, but it still is pretty serious if it got to the point where police had to get involved

Why do I keep seeing Smashing Pumpkins references everywhere? Did Billy Corgan die, or possibly perform a spell

Excellent comp. Its exactly like that. Fraudulent persona on camera

How is it weird to be complimentary of someone going back to school and getting an education

“He’s grown so much and matured. How can anyone hate this guy? Like you guys never regretted or did dumb stuff? At least he’s learned from it. You’d be amazed how how many of these players are actually smart. For him to be doing that well is crazy. I don’t think I could do that 😂😂😂”

Comments I’ve seen about this dude on here. What’s with this sub thinking every player is actually some intellectual? Remember when this sub used to go crazy talking about how Jaylen Brown had a genius level IQ?

yeah any time he’s in jail for beating his family we should think about his close relationship with Brad Hennefer.

he’s earned the pass on the hating thanks for reminding us

Chill, dawg. I use mensch all the time because I grew up in Pinecrest, Miami surrounded by Jews (shout-out to Temple Beth Am basketball league).

I didn’t know anything about JR’s connections to Judaism (although I knew about Amare). I certainly was not trying to imply anything anti-semitic–I have a Jewish half brother, Jewish brother in law, and Jewish nephews. Mensch is just a great word!

Did you forget to take your meds this morning?

lmao

Future astronaut

Wtf is JR Smith doing at Lake Tawakoni?

(I’m new to Collin County, if I’m missing something please educate me!)

I think it’s one of those “jokes” I’ve been hearing so much about.

You see that?! That’s someone who has died and been to heaven bitch! And you wanna test God?! You fucking come get it, shit stack!

lmaoo word wtf

I was literally just telling my mom about him and how well he seemed to have been doing since that finals blunder💀

“Hey Honey, was just counting my money, whats up?”

Wasnt he jetting over the europe with lebron and others, helicopters to golf course and everything

Clearly lebron wont be able to afford those by himself :)

He literally killed someone with his driving and never changed, the information has always been there

Redditors never do

Caitlin Jenner, Barbara Bush, etc.

Lol I meant Laura Bush.

24 days in jail for killing someone is insane. I’m sure who he is had a role in why he only got 24 days. It’s sickening what you can get away with if you have money and fame.

Matthew Broderick got 0 jail time for killing someone driving on the wrong side of the road in the UK

Maybe it’s not a societal deficiency to recognize that car accidents tend to be exactly that, especially in a place that tends to be draconian like America

That Netflix documentary “The crash” is based on a case like this.

Spoilers: justice was served in that case.

Exactly. Use a weapon or your hands and go to prison for the rest of your life. Intentionally run over someone with a car and say it’s an accident? Go to jail for the rest of the week. Maybe.

Canada as well

Really disgusting comment lol. The guy who died was JR’s childhood best friend

Karen Read as well

its cause u have a chance to die as well

Jim Brown

If it helps, this is literally the first time I’ve heard of this.

“this is how I’d handle it”

What are you doing in the nba sub, Subject? You’re supposed to be in the Carti sub

You throw a punch with your base. make sure your feet are square.

He would’ve if it were just a minor offense

[deleted]

You trying to get the pipe?

I think the narrative on JR really turned around when he started golfing and enrolled in college. It really did seem like he was trying to better himself, but when I would see clips of him on podcasts or whatever, he still seemed like the same ol’ JR to me.

He also fucking killed somebody so there’s that

You can’t fix stupid.

To many of us he was our favorite player 😩

People love leaving stuff out that doesn’t fuel their narrative.

There’s no context where going out of your way to express support for the state of Israel these days is acceptable behavior lol.

well you’re a fool then, seeing as he wasn’t paid to play in a charity golf event, he PAID to play in it.

and it was a charity for inner city kids in NYC, not a fundraiser for israel, so it looks like you are lacking the IQ capacity to even do a microscopic amount of research.

Absolutely disgusting that anyone even likes this guy. Every time I would see him it would fill me with anger how big of an asshole and idiot he was and people thinking he was some funny, great dude.

Hating a country that is actively committing genocide is a pretty reasonable thing to do, you familiar with world war two?

Any chance to shit on Israel I’ll take

it was not an athletes for israel event, that guy is lying. It was a CC Sabathia Shootout golf event called PitCCh In Foundation that had a sponsor called Athletes for Israel, one of hundreds.

It’s an annual charity golf event that has nothing to do with Israel and that guy who said that is full on lying.

not really, that guy is lying.

Amare? The guy from Florida who hasn’t said anything supportive of Israel regarding the war?

He is Jewish and has been to Israel to study his religion if that’s your issue, I guess…..

Killed someone in a car accident back in 2007

LMAO I haven’t laughed at a comment in a while

Social media man…people think they know them because they have a tad bit of access.

Fr they acting like he was on the streets 😂 he’s not Delonte west who’s been struggling.

Life’s hard when they take 15m out of your 35m deal

Yeah, but he played for NY

He was just a kid. Wow.

lmfaoooooooo fr😭
