I am a huge believer in the principle of "innocent until proven guilty." But this case really bothers me. Hardy was found guilty after a trial before a judge, and sentenced to 18 mos probation. He then appealed to have a trial before a jury (a two bites at the apple rule they have in Carolina if you're convicted in a bench trial - judge only trial). I would even cut the guy some slack if he had been acquitted by a jury after a second trial. But paying the girl money to have her not appear again is a miscarriage of justice imo. I will root for the Cowboys as I always have. But I am not at all happy we signed this a-hole. I am for as lengthy a suspension as possible.
