This guys rap sheet is way too long for me to have any sympathy for him

Does he even know what remorse means? Thanks for the memories Plax, but I hope they lock you up and lose the key. You’re an idiot

I know we’re all anti-Plax because he helped blow up a promising season, but consider:
Burress does not have ANY “rap sheet” whatsoever. He’s never been convicted of a crime, and as far as I can find, before this he’s never been charged with one.

And from ESPN:
Only about 14 percent of the people charged last year with the same charge that Burress faces were ultimately convicted of it, said John Caher, a spokesman for the state Division of Criminal Justice Services.
Of the 1,248 people in New York City initially arrested on second-degree criminal weapons possession in 2008, 184 were convicted of the charge. About half were convicted of a misdemeanor or violation, and the remaining convictions were usually lesser felonies with some jail time.
Prosecutors, in offering reduced charges in gun possession cases, consider past criminal history, arrest circumstances and the reason for having the weapon.
The 31-year-old wide receiver, who caught the winning touchdown pass in the Giants’ 2008 Super Bowl victory against the previously undefeated New England Patriots, has no criminal record. The gun he was carrying had a Florida license that only recently expired; it wasn’t licensed in New York.

Stupid, yes. But honestly, it’s not what I’d call a major crime, and apparently in the preponderance of cases, the DA’s office agrees.

He should have just gotten drunk and killed somebody with his car. Then he wouldn’t be facing jail time.
