Denver Broncos’ star linebacker, Von Miller, is reportedly under a criminal investigation. On Friday, Jan. 15, the Parker Police Department confirmed that a criminal probe is underway.
According to recent messages revealed by Von Miller’s ex-fiancée, Megan Denise, Miller allegedly sent violent messages to Denise following news that she was pregnant. However, Denise quickly recanted the private messages and posted this response to the media frenzy:
“…at no point in our relationship was there any type of physical abuse or violence by Von.”
“When domestic violence allegations are made…the police HAVE to make an arrest…they have no choice,” said defense attorney and Court TV correspondent Jeffrey Wolf. But according to Wolf, this isn’t always the case when you’re a beloved, eight-time Pro Bowl player.
“When the police arrive at a scene or get a phone call, and the person being accused on the other end is somebody like Von Miller, who’s a hero in this town for sports, they pick up the phone, they call their sergeant and say: “Hey, I’ve got somebody making an allegation against Von Miller.” And the sergeant says, “Give me a second, I’ll call the DAs office.”
“Anybody who’s lived in Colorado for any length of time knows that we really play by two sets of rules in the court system of our state…there’s what happens to everyone else, and what happens [to players from] the Broncos, Nuggets, and so on…”
