Yesterday, former NFL player Ray McDonald was charged with felony false imprisonment stemming from a domestic violence report on May 27, 2015 during which he allegedly assaulted his ex-fiancee.
McDonald's driver reportedly tried to stop him from entering the house and breaking into the room where his ex-fiancee and mother of his child was sleeping. She had a restraining out against him (he and his attorney claim he wasn't aware of the R.O.). McDonald had reportedly been drinking before he went to the home. The woman captured part of the incident on cell phone and called police immediately afterwards.
The Chicago Bears cancelled McDonald's one year contract after the May 27, 2015 arrest.
McDonald had been previously arrested on domestic violence charges in San Jose stemming from a fight with the same woman while she was holding their 2-month old baby. But prosecutors decided there wasn't enough evidence to charge him in that Aug. 31, 2014 domestic-abuse arrest, chalking it up to a messy, drunken fight between the two.
The 49ers reserved judgement on that arrest, but ended up releasing McDonald in December 2014 after San Jose police revealed the defensive lineman was under investigation for "rape by intoxication" with a different woman after a night of drinking at the Willow Den bar in San Jose. McDonald claims the sex was consensual and is suing the woman for defamation.
The driver's witness account and the cell phone video of the latest incident will be evidence used against McDonald to support the new felony charges. If convicted, he could face up to 3 years behind bars.
