The charging documents facing former Washington running back Derrius Guice have come out, and according to a report from The Washington Post, he allegedly strangled his girlfriend until she was unconscious, and then later woke her up crying.
The Post got a hold of the charging documents for Guice, which revealed that on several different occasions, the running back allegedly pushed the woman to the ground, strangled her, or threw her phone into the street. The woman reportedly took several photos of her injuries from the incidents, which are being used as evidence.
Guice was released by the Washington Football Team last Friday after the allegations came to light, and Guice turned himself in to the police in Loudoun County. On Sunday, the third-year running back cleared waivers, and will now become a free agent in the NFL, though his future is uncertain as he continues to deal with the legal system, as well as a potential punishment from the league.
On Monday morning, Washington head coach Ron Rivera stated that it was his decision to release Guice from the team, but he wished not to discuss the situation in much detail.
