A member of the New England Patriots felt compelled to say something after learning of the disturbing situation surrounding former NFL running back Zac Stacy.
Matthew Judon used Twitter to share a statement shortly after the emergence of a video allegedly showing Stacy violently attacking his ex-girlfriend, who also is the mother of his child. Stacy spent three seasons in the NFL from 2013 to 2015.
You can read Judon's statement in the tweet below:
The Oakland (Florida) Police Department on Wednesday issued an arrest warrant for Stacy, charging the 30-year-old with aggravated battery and criminal mischief. The former St. Louis Rams and New York Jets running back allegedly fled Florida after Saturday's incident and was at large as of Thursday evening.
The alleged incident involving Stacy took place at the victim's home, with Stacy's child, as well as a child not fathered by him, present. According to a redacted affidavit obtained by USA TODAY Sports, authorities twice have been called to the same residence for altercations allegedly involving Stacy: one verbal, and another in which Stacy allegedly battered the same woman.
The woman said the most recent altercation occurred after she extended an "olive branch" to Stacy and allowed him to enter the home, per the affidavit, via USA TODAY.
