bauman Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Late Thursday-early Friday arrest; the P-D Mizzou drumbeater lives in Columbia; as of late Monday afternoon the St. Louis arm of SPUMAC has still failed to report. I thought the justification for Matter living in Columbia was so he could be on the scene quickly to report on all things SPUMAC. Maybe he was just re-reading for the 22nd time the glowing tribute to Michael Porter Sr. and was unaware of breaking (negative) news.

They said he passed the sobriety tests but didn't give him breathalyzer so can't know how drunk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well passing a sobriety test can give you a pretty good indication of "how drunk" (The answer is: not drunk). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure but just piecing the story together, it gives me several questions. He was pulled over for a lane violation. Officers said they detected the odor of alcohol when they approached which sounds strange to me. However, they said he said he was drinking. So either Tilmon admitted he was drinking, or perhaps he was drunker than they let on and let him get away with just an MIP? This was Friday, can a theory not be that he was pulled over because he was drunk and behind a wheel, they were going to book him for DUI hence the arrest but somebody influential stepped in? If the answer to those are no then yea I agree, it's a very odd story to get arrested for having beer in a car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not reacting with glee, I've been booked for the same offense. I wasn't a scholarship athlete, nor driving a vehicle, but to each their own Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, given the MUPD's history of arresting athletes; I doubt it. Again, if he was actually drunk, I doubt he would've passed a sobriety test.

willie Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 It seems like almost all of Missouri's legal problems take place in automobiles. We might have an advantage that an auto isn't necessary to go to SLU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old guy Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 There are other reasons for driving around like you are drunk and not have alcohol in your system. For example Tiger woods was recently jailed overnight for a DUI and driving erratically. He had no alcohol on board, what he had was a cocktail of pain killers on board. Tiger went into rehab following his "DUI". Time will tell if Tilmon has recurrent episodes of erratic driving and arrests. I hope he does not, this would be a way to ruin his future.

Not saying it can't or won't happen (look at The Incident). But Mizzou recruits basketball players, period, and could care less about the character of the person. Tell me I'm wrong. SPUMAC. Still Producing Unwashed Miscreants And Cheating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
