Newton Family Lawyer

" I am 100 % certain that CAMERON NEWTON did not accept any money." He never said he was 100% certain that CECIL didnt accept money.
Him hiring a lawyer doesn't let me know any of that. It only tells me that he's wanting to protect himself and his son. People hire lawyers all the time without being involved in some huge conspiracy. That's a reach.EClass04 said:
no no no what the lawyer actually said what "I'm a million percent sure Cam didn't accept no money." I'm not the best english student but i'm pretty sure thats a double negative and he threw a lot of them out there in that interview. So if we take that and diagram it, what he really said is Cam did accept money.
AED,
1. It may just be my own ignorance getting in the way, but I've never encountered a circumstance where I had to hire a lawyer just so I couldsay, "Hey, I didn'tdo it". I could be wrong, but I don't think the owner of the radio station could send you to jail for that.
2. As I and many others have posted in recent days, the presence of the FBI should put everyone on notice that this situation is more than just a possible NCAA rules violation. Not to mention the recent federal indictment of several AU boosters on money laundering and gambling charges.
So while the Newtons may have done nothingillegal by allegedly getting "paid to play", the fact that the payment in question is tied to AU and possibly the same boosters mentioned in point #2 gives that family greater worries than the NCAA.

but you are showing an amazing level of ignorance as to how the world works. There is a level in society where you just use lawyers for things. When I owned my own small business in Jackson I used lawyers for lots of things. We had them look over employment agreements, just to be sure the language was right. We had them look over our incorporation papers, just to make sure everything was right. We had them look over contracts and other agreements as well. If I were dealing with a cloud of controversy that was playing out in the press I would hire a lawyer, just as John bond did, just as Bill Bell did and just as Cecil Newton did. That does not at all mean that you are involved in some huge conspiracy.EClass04 said:
I want Cecil and Auburn to go down as hard as anyone else but you are reaching by assuming that Cecil hiring a lawyer means he's guilty of a massive conspiracy that the FBI will bring down. Maybe he is, but hiring a lawyer doesn't tell you anything. If I had to guess Cecil is guilty of asking for money which Auburn paid. the rest of the stuff going on at Auburn was way above Cecil's level and he probably isn't even intelligent enough to understand the level these Auburn guys were operating at.
I'm not speaking to his illegal actions, I'm just saying that hiring a lawyer doesn't mean a damn thing other than he's being cautious. Everyone involved in this thing has a lawyer so by your reasoning they are all going down!

By the way, Cecil's statement that he would not "confirm or deny" anything being reported about money for Cam, I thought that there was no way that there was someone educated that gave them this advice.? I was wrong, that attorney would easily give them this advice.</span>
