Darrelle Revis turned himself in to authorities Friday after the New York Jets cornerback was charged with four felonies and a misdemeanor stemming from an altercation in Pittsburgh last weekend.
Here’s a video of Revis turning himself in to Pittsburgh police.
Revis was accompanied by his mother, aunt and attorney Blaine Jones, according to Andrew Goldstein of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
“He wanted to turn himself in,” Jones said. “He didn’t want to be a fugitive from the law. He wanted to make this happen.”
Jones is removing himself from the case after the pre-trial hearing according to ESPN’s Coley Harvey, but he believes Revis has a good chance to be vindicated.
“Based on the investigating that I’ve done and the private investigator that works for my firm has done … I think that he has a very promising case,” Jones said, per Goldstein.
Revis had an arraignment hearing and was released with multiple stipulations.
