Timing of Drug Arrests

Does anyone think that there is any alterior motive to the timing of the drug charges that were announced today. Here is one possiblity. The Gallatin County Attorney really likes Mike Kramer and does not want him to leave MSU. Therefore, he does whatever he can to undermine Kramer's chances of receiving an offer from another institution.

Think about it. There was no immediate urgency in the charges since they apparently stem from a lenghty investigation. Thus, the charges and the arrests could have occurred on Thursday or Friday of this week or even sometime next week.

If Kramer does not get the Idaho job, all of Mike's supporters may want to give a big, gigantic hug to the Gallatin County Attorney. Timing is everything.

that is really, really stretching it....give me a break!

O.K. If that's BS, then how about the flip side of the coin. Why weren't the charges brought 10 days ago. Was there any intentional delay in bringing the charges in order to allow the starting corner to play?

In short, is there something critical in the case that just developed in the last 24 hours that triggered the charges. The timing - after the end of the season and while Kramer is considering another position - seems strange given the apparent lengthy investigation.

Remember: Subject to a statute of limitations, a county attorney has discretion as to when to charge a crime.

I would be lying if I didn't admit that the timing of this whole thing made me cock my head a little. Original arrests six months ago, and now after the season has just finished up, three more arrests that pertain to the same case? I may not be yelling "conspiracy" from the tops of the buildings. But, I did have the thought.

I can assure you that Marty Lambert would not do something like this. For reasons that are both admirable and not so admirable.

I know Marty fairly well and I'm sure you're correct. It's just been a crazy week.

Marty Lambert doesn't even know that the Bobcats exist...................he's on his own little ego trip.

The sad part of this situation is that we don't know if there are more involved or not. This is one of the stories that will continue to grow and possibly could be cancerous to our athletic department (even more so than other situations have become). As sad as this sounds I truly hope that it was just Andre, Eddie, and Derrick involved and that there is no one else out there.

TB is right. This thing could be devastating to the program if there are more players involved.

Air Griz is also correct in the fact that the timing seems to be of question so I think you guys need to lay off a tad bit. This gossip board has more than a tendency to get out of hand with rumor and innuendo, but then again, thats why its so fun to read.

The good news for the players is that Lambert is a bumbling idiot, so even if they are guilty, they have at least a 50/50 chance of walking, so they have THAT going for them.

You hit the nail on the head - this has to be our biggest concern!!!

That is the smelliest line of ****** that has appeared on BN in the last several days.

I think the timing probably had more to do with it being finals week and 2 were still students, whose permanent residents are listed out of state.

Bad timing, yes. Correlation, No.

Lambert doesn't want cases he can't win. This case is higher profile because of the suspects involved and he doesn't want to bring charges if he doesn't have a solid case; so they take their sweet time building evidence.

When they arrested Davis for beating his girlfriend they did it in the locker room in front of the whole team; that certainly didn't help Kramer or the team that day.

No conspiracy here; at least not on behalf of Kramer or MSU

??? - Gus is just referring to the people out there (And there are quite a few actually) that think the U.S. Government orchestrated the 9\11 attacks. Not sure why you jumped on him?

I have to admit that I thought it was interesting how they waited until after the season as well. But after the way the city Attornies bumbled the first part of this case last June it would make since that they would wait until they had established a good case. What I mean by bumbled is the free flowing leaking of names that may or may not be tied to this thing. I know some who were mentioned to the press as possible people of interest and then they were cleared but that never made the news are already considering suits against the city.
