As soon as word came down of former Seahawks defensive lineman Michael Bennett’s felony arrest warrant Friday, outkickthecoverage.com’s Clay Travis — who has been critical of Bennett for months — took to Twitter to gloat.
“Lying, racebaiting fraud Michael Bennett indicted for felony charge involving injury of an elderly paraplegic person,” Travis tweeted. “NFL man of the year locked up for 2018.”
Just a few minutes later, Intercept writer and Black Lives Matter activist Shaun King weighed in with a different point of view.
“Sure. An officer saw Michael Bennett brutally assault a sweet old woman, said nothing, did nothing, then they decided to charge him with felony assault…14 months later,” King tweeted.
