    I expect a level-headed fan response to this statement

    Shocking statement from Hart’s lawyers…

    Let’s see what the facts say when the evidence is laid out. Always wait for the facts – see Matt Araiza.

  4. Welp he won’t play for the Flyers ever again. Guilty or not. Now if this was under Chuck and Co he would be back in a heart beat.

    Multiple players who were actually innocent said so long before the charges were ever announced. They did so because they were actually innocent

    If he’s guilty, then fuck him. If he’s innocent, I hope he goes on to live and a nice life and returns to hockey. This day and age everyone jumps from accusation -> guilty without the process running it’s course.

  7. I’m in a weird spot. I want him to be innocent and clear his name, but even if he is… his career and reputation are wrecked.

    So I guess… I hope he’s guilty and the victim gets her justice.

    Edit: since people seem to think the worst of what I wrote…

    Option A) Hart is innocent and found innocent. His career and life are forever changed/derailed.

    Option B) Hart is guilty and is found guilty. Justice is served to the victim.

    Those are the two outcomes of truth, right? One has a less negative impact, no?

    I’m glad I’m not famous because I was falsely accused of SA and it never got in the news. I was in a holding cell for an hour while the police were questioning her why I would call 911 if I SA’d her. She eventually realized they knew she was lying. I was released and she went to jail.

    I’m so fucking sickened by this. I hope they throw the fucking book at Hart.

    Edit: weird I’m being downvoted for hoping they throw the book at someone being charged with sexual assault, but okay.

    I’ll reserve judgement until the verdict, but I don’t think I’ll be holding my breath over this one. 5 affluent white teen athletes at a party with a drunk girl… we live in a world where Brock Turner is walking free.

    Innocent!!!!

    Welcome him back and support him. That’s what a classy organization should do.

    If your falsly accused come on back with open arms!

    The truth will set him free!

    Carter ❤️
