"Per a league source, the Panthers quietly are keeping an eye on Watson. "

 

This is about as vague as you can get.   I would bet dollars to donuts nobody is trading for Watson until the league makes a move on him.

I could see Tepper and Fit moving if we give a 1st and a late round pick next year if we found secure him and keep Darnald. Other than that I doubt we touch him unless the texans down right release him.

But what exactly is the crime? I'm guessing solicitation of prostitution but that's all I can think of. Still each count carries max 5 years so he could serve time for it.

If true - according to several complaints there is much much more than solicitation. I am not sure where you got that idea.

And since this is my field, the FBI is investigating extortion, not Watson, which the feds will often take if it’s interstate and/or conveyed electronically (and this seems to be both), because of the complexity and varying degrees of laws between states and the lack of communication and cooperation there would be not only between states but also in gathering evidence from such entities as websites, email accounts, phone/cellular tower records which are extremely difficult  for one state to obtain for a variety of areas (essentially the fact the crime did not occur in what could be defined in a central location).

I got that idea because you could actually prove that in court. A DA isn't going to pick up a case on he said she said and you believe the woman. I'm pretty sure you could convict that he was trying to solicit sex. Yes there are other claims but like I said solicitation is a federal crime.

To translate, FBI involvement is about possible extortion by a woman against Watson. The action was not even initiated by Watson's team purportedly. So stop jumping to conclusions. It's just another twist in the saga.

That would be a huge twist and I would like to see him prove extortion as well. Definitely an interesting case.

This is currently a civil case, not a criminal case.

A criminal case, however, can stem from all of this.

      FLA showed everyone it’s not about superstars. they bullied the best line in the NHL into obscurity. they played hard, were in the right positions, and ran over everything that got in their way.

      That’s really not what you said and when I even expressed doubt as to your intentions with the post you doubled down and remained unclear on whether you were trying to drag Dean Smith for whatever reason. You just got the facts wrong, which if you don’t follow the local college programs like you say then maybe you just were mistaken and thought Smith didn’t win championships or have legit superstars, and that is ok, but you just doubled down when my first post was more corrective than anything. I’m not sure what you expect posting objectively false things like “RBA has a lot of wins with nothing to show for it like Dean Smith” (paraphrasing) on a message board with plenty of UNC fans. I’m not taking it as a personal affront, we can agree to disagree, Dean Smith’s legacy fortunately will not be affected by this conversation. Screw the (Florida) Panthers?

      Bring in the free agents and trades.  Florida is the best team and unless Tulsky makes it happen, it’s more of the same…which isn’t bad…but it’s time to win a goddamn cup.
