Falcons waive Shembo following animal cruelty charge

What the hell is it with failclowns players and abusing/killing dogs?

One more reason I hate that sorry-a$$ franchise like Jews hates Hitler!

The Atlanta Falcons waived linebacker Prince Shembo on Friday following news of an aggravated animal cruelty charge, the team announced.

According to the Gwinnett County (Georgia) Police Department, Shembo's former girlfriend, Denicia Williams, called the police on April 19 to report that Shembo killed her Yorkshire terrier, Dior.

Williams left Shembo alone with the dog on April 15, according to police, only to return and find the dog unresponsive. Per a statement released by the police, Williams said Shembo "made comments to her that he had kicked her dog. At this point, she ended their relationship."

A necropsy performed on the dog determined the cause of death was blunt force trauma. The report said the dog suffered a "fractured rib, fractured liver, abdominal hemorrhage, thoracic hemorrhage, extensive bruising/hemorrhage in muscles in front leg and shoulders, head trauma, hemorrhage and edema in lungs, hemorrhage between the esophagus and trachea, and hemorrhage in the left eye with internal injuries."

The findings were completed May 28.

A warrant for Shembo's arrest was obtained Friday, per a police statement.

"We are aware of the charges that have been filed against Prince Shembo," the Falcons said in a statement. "We are extremely disappointed that one of our players is involved in something like this. Accordingly, we have decided to waive Prince Shembo."

The former Notre Dame player was selected in the fourth round of the 2014 NFL Draft and appeared in all 16 games for the Falcons this past season.

Shembo was last year’s fourth-round pick from Notre Dame, and this isn’t the first time his name has been linked to an unseemly situation.

When he was at Notre Dame, he was accused of sexually assaulting a female student at nearby St. Mary’s College, who committed suicide. No charges were ever filed in the case, and Falcons General Manager Thomas Dimitroff said last spring he was “very comfortable” with Shembo after their pre-draft research.
