Mike Preston is infamous for starting rumors and writing non-factual articles. Noone in Baltimore takes anything he says as fact... so should it be removed? Sertman 23:15, 2 March 2006 (UTC)Sertman
[edit] Interesting Story
Nothing of importance, but I remember my elementary school art teacher telling me about how he used to teach Ray Lewis when he was younger. His name escapes me right now, but he was a good teacher. I believe he had also once taught Warrick Dunn --Zeerus (ETC) 20:14, 24 March 2006 (UTC) --um, ok, but that has absolutely no place in the article, TBH Jedck 15:15, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Plea Bargain
This is rediculous. I probably hate Ray Lewis as much as anyone else does, but to say there was a plea bargain in the murder case was rediculous. If you can't get the facts straight, then just leave the article alone. We don't need your blatant bias. The charges against him were dropped because there was absolutely no evidence that would support the idea that he murdered the two guys. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Jedck (talk • contribs).
- No, he plead guilty to a misdemeanor. Source:[1].--M@rēino 19:30, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, but that doesn't mean there was a plea bargain Jedck 21:41, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
- There absolutely was a plea bargain. That's exactly why one pleads guilty to a lesser charge, the definition of a plea bargain. If the murder charge was simply dropped due to lack of evidence, then Lewis would not have plead guilty to a lesser charge. Google for "Ray Lewis Plea Bargain" and you will get a ton of relevant results. Please keep YOUR blatant bias out of Wikipedia and do your research next time. - 66.93.144.171 04:48, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

It clearly was a plea bargain. Here is a link to both audio and text on this matter reported by NPR. http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=1075055
Here is another link. We should be clear that Lewis would have been charged not with murder, but certainly a charge of conspiracy or the lesser charge of obstruction of justice.
Here is a link from Sports Illustrated based on an interview with Lewis's attorney.

Also, let's get in the habit of learning to spell ridiculous correctly. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.39.115.162 (talk • contribs) on 15:21, 22 January 2007 (UTC); Please sign your posts!
