And yet, Terrell Owens is considered a bad guy and has done nothing like what the previously mentioned WR's have done.

I remember reading early on in the proceedings that Plax was working on a plea bargain, until Mayor Bloomberg got his nose into the case & pressured the DA to go for a more applicable penalty. He wanted the city to set an example. If that were you or I my brother, you can bet your life we'd be spending the maximum time under the law in prison. We would not have gotten off that easy - even if it was a 1st time offense.
