Former Giants RB/return specialist Dave Meggett, a former Pro Bowler, Super Bowl champ and 10 year NFL vet who also played for the Patriots and Jets, has been charged with rape in Greenville, NC.
In 1988, Meggett was arrested in Toronto and charged with the sexual assault of a prostitute. During his Giants tenue, Meggett was charged with lewd behavior after soliciting sex from an undercover officer. In 2004, a warrant was issued for his arrest following his non-payment of child support.
A December 2005 auction of Meggett’s Super Bowl XXV ring ended unsuccessfully.
There’s not much else to say other than Lawrence Taylor would really prefer not to see Big Blue’s reputation dragged thru the mud.
Well, I have to say, I am not surprised at another charge of rape. In 2001, I had my own encounter with meggett that ended in the same way..rape. Charges were dropped however, I won in a civil trial and hope now justice will finally be served and send him to jail.
