Suit: NBA Player Watching Porn, Drunk Before Crash Claim Targets Minnesota Timberwolves' Eddie Griffin (CBS) MINNEAPOLIS On March 30, Minnesota Timberwolves center Eddie Griffin was drunk and masturbating when he crashed his luxury SUV into a parked Suburban outside a store in Minneapolis, according to a lawsuit filed Thursday by the man whose Suburban was hit in the crash. WCCO-TV obtained copies of 911 calls and store surveillance video of the incident, along with an accident report the police submitted to the state, reports WCCO-TV's Caroline Lowe. Several of the 911 callers that night said Griffin was drunk. One witness said Griffin told him he was watching pornography in a DVD player mounted on the dashboard of his Cadillac Escalade SUV when he struck a Chevy Suburban parked on University Avenue Southeast. http://cbs4.com/topstories/topstories_story_180174619.html And video link compliments of Chris Porter's Hair http://wcco.com/video/?id=18021@wcco.dayport.com
uhhh....yeah. St. Jean should be praised for dodging Griffin and picking up Richardson during the draft of 01. Unbelievable this guy chooses to rub one out in his car while driving. Jesus...
Must be one helluva dvd movie to be like, "Shhiet, I gotta get my groove on while I'm driving, yo." Haven't seen anything that good yet.
How were the shop owner's civil rights ignored because Griffen wasn't charged with drunk driving? Cops are funny, some of them give athletes breaks because they're athletes and others want to charge them with everything in the world.
If I was furiously beating off while driving, I'd probably say I'm drunk just to avoid explaining the real reason why I crashed. "Uhhh yeah officer, that fifth of ripple went straight to the dome! It's too bad them empty beer cans got in the way of the brakes or I would have stopped! Oh and I forgot to zip myself. How'd that happen. Tee hee" Who knows maybe the victim is lying to get frivolous lawsuit money or maybe cops let Griffin go because he's a semi-famous guy. In the end, any guy attempting to round up the tadpoles while driving and trying to bribe his way out of a crash probably knew if he couldn't get himself off while driving, nobody would get him off in the court room. "uh, your honor, my client was not guilty of being drunk nor was he guilty of doing the five finger knuckle shuffle in public. He's just stupid."
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting CABANGBANG:</div><div class="quote_post">If it's Alba, I don't blame him.</div> Oh yeah. I'd probably run over a sidewalk full of sleeping hobos if I was watching Into the Blue or Honey. Just because something might have gone over the hood and over the top of the roof, doesn't mean I'm going to stop.
The resale value of that Escalade took a real dive. If you see a used Escalade on E-Bay and features include a dash mount paper towel dispenser and Windsheild Wipers on the inside,that's the one. Cruise conrol does not STEER the car. Dummy. Next time pick up a street hooker and let her drive The cops would only drive him home if he was handcuffed Eddie G claims the coach asked him to work on his dribbling.
