Well done, only a few people will get it, but well done.
Chris Beard arrested
- Thread starter UKDemarcusWall
- Start date
I’m not exactly sure but indictments officially have to come from a grand jury per the US Constitution, which means the DA will pursue getting them. But each state has weird procedural laws before it gets there.
Lucky man. My girl is cute, here is a pic of her few years ago. She’s a great cook, and always up for a party…..
She drive a Tahoe?
I don’t think that’s true across all states, but I know it’s been adopted in a lot of them. I hope Texas is this way.
Remember to tip your waiter.
That’s what she calls it. Yeah. Drives it so good.
I’m Tennessee they can’t drop the charges anymore, but the problem is that doesn’t mean ****. If she won’t cooperate then a lot of the time they have to drop the charges because without her there’s no evidence.
Were you waiting for this one too... If Greg Marshall gets arrested, I get it.
Don't get offended if I never reply to anything you say again. Arguing with an someone acting like an idiot would make me an idiot. TIA
Trust me, I won't lose any sleep over it, hoss.
**** man, probably……….ahhh nevermind. Can’t type it cause I’m afraid of the blowback. That one is kookoo.
Accuser said he bit her threw her off the bed, etc.
Beard says he has recordings showing he was not the primary aggressor. Asked if he would share those recordings, Beard said "no."
......So he's saying it's ok to beat her up since she pushed first? lol

Unless there’s physical evidence. Or he was caught in the act. And it sounds like it was both. Dude is done. And should be. If body cam footage surfaces, he will be and should be out of a job faster than you can say howdy.
Yes. It does. Has to officially. For a felony anyways.
Fifth Amendment to the United Staes Constituion:
“No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury”
Felonies are Capital offenses.
You cannot be tried before a judge and jury until the DA present his case before a grand jury. When the grand jury says “Yes you have enough evidence and cause” to proceed. They levy an official indictment (meaning your *** is officially in deep ****) and the case proceeds to trial.
Now how strong an indictment is always up to debate (hence the old phrase a DA can indict a ham sandwich) but you cannot be officially indicted and formally charged with a felony until the grand jury says so.
The rest before is probable cause and investigation.

No.
Not all states use a grand jury. They are only required for federal felony charges.
Felonies are only capital if they carry risk of the death penalty.
We’re talking about Texas though. They use grand juries. And so does Kentucky.
24 states use them. So in this case it applies.
You're still wrong my friend.
"Not all states use the Grand Jury system in their State prosecutions, but (due to the 5th Amendment of the US Constitution) all federal cases with serious felonies require federal court indictments. Georgia law only mandates the cumbersome indictment process for the most serious crimes that can result in execution."
Defendant can waive it. It also won't be convened if it's pled to a misdemeanor. Which is likely.
I agree. You can't make Cal look good no matter how often you attack other posters for having an opinion.
Ok, but that isn’t what you originally said. Yes, on looking it up, Texas requires a grand jury indictment for all felonies.
I doubt this is getting plead down in this day an age. 10 years ago maybe. If that gets plead down it looks like rich white privilege. Not happening.
And if you waive it you go straight to trial. That’s stupid. Let the grand jury have it. It might get tossed before hand. Worst case you’re gonna end up in the same spot.
Why are you ordering others to do it …too lazy to do it yourself? And you better hurry before he deletes them first.
But, yes, ole Morg/Grom was the board’s Beard guy. We remember. But I don’t think his denial here is sincere. He’s just messing with ya.

No choke marks?. Interesting.
She said she was choked though. Meaning it may been from behind with an arm. Wow. If so he’s a double piece of garbage.
There’s no way he’s fishing again. Even if he gets his job back who in their right mind would let their kid play for a potential Bobby Knight 2.0? If he had any balls he’d resign. Nah, who am I kidding. That would require guilt and shame.
It's his first offense and the victim isn't wanting to press charges. It's going to get pleaded down. That's how the legal system works.
No it doesn't. If goes to the judge to determine if sufficient evidence exists to move to trial. It also go through discovery, plea bargaining, preliminary hearings, pre trial motions and then trial.
My bad. I’m on hour 15 today. And I’m upset about Coach Leach.
If this gets pled down and he’s back on the sidelines, then Texas becomes the new LSU. Bankrupt of morals. Eff them. I still don’t see this getting pled without backlash in this day and ESPECIALLY in Austin. If it does get pled down, he’s still done. No way anyone is going to let their kid come near him. And if they do they’re idiots. Again, abusers are usually not one and dones. He will do it again. Bet on it.
Ohh, he's done at Texas. This will take 2 - 3 years to rehab that image.
I am just saying how the legal system works. By all accounts he has no priors, and no evidence of violence in his past. He was, until this point, a respected member of the community. He has money and good lawyers. Trials cost a lot of money for the state and have low success rates. Not to mention the victim seems to be siding with Beard and would likely not testify against him. It will definitely be pleaded down as it would be for anyone in similar situations.
Welp, it's looking pretty bad. Talk about throwing your career away.
