Ex-Michigan Football Coach Sherrone Moore Appears In Court
Former University of Michigan football coach Sherrone Moore herself got into a lot of trouble over some on-the-clock philandering which ended in crimes, suicide threats, arrests, and at least a week of deeply embarrassing public humiliation.
Cassius previously reported on the incident that began when the football team staff with whom Moore had an affair told the school of the tumultuous relationship and was prepared to leave town. As they packed their belongings, Moore broke into their apartment, grabbed several knives, and threatened to kill himself, allegedly saying, “I'm going to kill myself. I'm going to show you. My blood is on your hands. You ruined my life.”
According to ESPNMoore appeared in a Washtenaw County district court today alongside his wife Kelli, who clearly won't leave him for cheating on her, and his attorney, Ellen Michaels. Michaels says she filed a motion to have her client's arrest report and will make her case on Feb. 17 before Washtenaw County 14A-1 District Court Judge J. Cedric Simpson. Michaels says the report is “full of omissions” and that Moore was arrested because of “misleading statements.”
“The arrest must be quashed, meaning the arrest is not valid, and any evidence taken or received as a result of that arrest must be quashed and suppressed,” Michaels said. “We ask that the complaint be dismissed. It is our belief … that without these misleading statements and omissions, there would be no probable cause for these charges.”
There is no doubt that many eyes will be on this case, as Moore's inexplicable reckless behavior has received an explosive response across sports media and beyond. If his lawyer finds a way to get him off all these charges that he looks extremely guilty of, she will make enough money to retire early.
