I am kind of confused here.
The player is being sued in court for participating in a crime, but he was only indicted by a grand jury on failing to report a felony after observing one?
The incident allegedly occurred on Dec. 6, 2024, when Christian Nshimiyimana, who owns an exotic car rental business and was researching vehicles for his company, was sitting inside the Mercedes G-Wagon at a dealership in Carrollton, Texas. Nshimiyimana alleges Sneed and his personal assistant pulled up to the dealership in a rented Lamborghini Urus and shot at him while he was sitting inside his vehicle.
Sneed is being sued for $1 million by Nshimiyimana. The lawsuit filed on Feb. 20 in Dallas County, Texas, accuses Sneed and a defendant listed as John Doe of "an unprovoked attack in cold blood and broad daylight." Sneed and his accomplice were arrested by the Carrollton Police Department on allegations of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon after the shooting.
Reading between the lines, if the player was arrested for shooting someone, but is only being indicted, does that mean that his co-conspirator is taking the fall, and claiming that the player wasn't aware that a crime was going to be committed? Because if the player did drive there with the intent to shoot at the victim, then the charge should obviously be much more serious than "failure to report a felony", since driving there would, at the very least, make him a co-conspirator in a violent crime.
