MOST WANTED |
Prosecutors on Wednesday dropped resisting arrest and
perjury charges against the Florida State cornerback and return specialist who
was arrested on Monday.
State Attorney Willie Meggs said he decided not to pursue
the case because Tallahassee police didn’t really need information Reid had
been accused of falsifying. (Insert joke
here about Meggs being a Forida grad…We don’t know if he is or isn’t, but you
get the point.)
“Our position is that
he should never have been arrested,” said Tim Jansen, Reid’s lawyer. “He’s not
happy that he went through this. He still believes he did nothing wrong.”

SEAL IN MEGGS' OFFICE? |
“I’m very relieved,” said Fisher, who had not previously
commented on the arrest. “Like I said, you never make a statement until you
find out all the facts.”
Reid, 21, had been charged with lying to protect a friend
from his hometown of Valdosta, Ga. Police stopped Rontel Frazier while he was
driving Reid’s motor scooter because it didn’t have a license plate.
Frazier also didn’t have a driver’s license, and he escaped from the officers before they could identify him. Officers later contacted Reid and he met them at the scene.

FUTURE CRIMINALS: MD, WAKE, UVA and DUKE |
Really? In Florida, the state attorney says “dime out?”
Nothings says “good use of the state’s resources” like going
CSI Tallahassee to catch a kid riding a scooter. We're sure there are some murder, rape and robbery
victims in the area who are delighted with how the local constables are
spending their crime fighting time…
