BALLS OF STEEL Wild pretrial nugget. Two weeks ago, DA offered TSJ a plea deal down to sexual assault conviction with promise of no jail time. Or, risk trial + maybe serve prison time. TSJ told attorneys, Mark Sutter and Tricia Bath: “No, there is no plea deal. I am innocent.”

Wofford’s Mike Young went 74-103 without a winning season in his first 6 years. Since then, he has been to the NCAA tournament 5 times in 10 years. Sustaining a winning foundation takes time, patience, and losing seasons. Most coaches/staffs do not have that luxury.

Moms are special. The world needs to air-hug @MsTrea (Miss Redding) who is TSJ’s mom. She has stood by her son when so many didn’t. She believed him, believed in justice, + and been to places no mom should have to. Incredible woman + mom. SHE DESERVES ALL THE FLOWERS 🧡💙🧡💙

FIREWORKS - CLOSING TSJ: Mark Sutter, TSJ’s attorney + owner of Sutter Law, just UNLEASHED on the State of Kansas DA’s office + the “awful” investigation to even file this case. “This is not about Air Jordan’s or free stuff. This is about someone’s life. This is not a trial.

MORE GRENADES BY TSJ ATTORNEY: “How about the dollar sign emojis” (i.e., 🤑). He propositions a financial angel here. “There are alot of emojis to use. They could have used praying hands, scales of justice, smiley face, sad face….but instead the group text chose $ signs.”
