In short: Police say Terrion Arnold coordinated (and watched via stream 😳) a kidnap/beating of men he thought had stolen his stuff, only they hadn’t.

[Ari Meirov @MySportsUpdate]

The full Terrion Arnold story, according to Tampa Police, is stunning:

Police say this all started after Terrion Arnold and several others had property stolen from an Airbnb Arnold rented in Largo in early February. Investigators say Arnold believed some of the eventual victims were responsible, even though police later determined they were not involved in that theft.

On February 3, police say Arnold and Boakai Hilton — who investigators say helped coordinate the alleged setup — directed Arianna Del Valle and Jasmine Randazzo to contact one of the victims and lure him to an apartment in Tampa.

Around midnight on February 4, investigators say the victims arrived at the apartment. Once they entered a bedroom, police say Christion Williams and Lyndell Hudson — who had been hiding in a closet — jumped out, grabbed the victims, held them at gunpoint, and attacked them.

Investigators say the incident was streamed to Arnold, Hilton, and Freddie Hughes while they were traveling to the apartment. Police also say there was a group chat involving the defendants, and that Arnold and Hilton gave directions through that chat while the attack was happening.

About an hour later, police say Arnold arrived at the apartment with Hilton, Hughes, and another person, and that he directed them to go inside while the robbery was still going on. Investigators say property was stolen from the victims during the attack.

At around 1:40 a.m., police say the victims were escorted out of the apartment by armed suspects and forced into their vehicle before leaving the scene. Police say Del Valle, Williams, and another individual then got into a vehicle driven by Arnold and left the area.

The victims later reported the incident to Tampa Police and identified the suspects. After search warrants were executed and the investigation continued, detectives arrested multiple people in the case over the following weeks.

Police say Arnold was the primary conspirator in the alleged robbery/kidnapping plot. He turned himself in Wednesday night and is now facing 4 counts of kidnapping and 4 counts of armed robbery.

Uhhhh Diana Russini's deleted tweet had a Pats logo next to Morgan Moses🤔🤔

[Thor Nystrom @thorku]

The story of Russini’s brazenness with journalistic ethics, described as a bombshell today, was an unmistakable fact of her work in the moment. Even w/o the context of industry rumors.

The story didn’t mention Morgan Moses or award voting once.

Surface level/kid glove reporting

WILD: Dianna Russini revealed she got out of a traffic ticket by FaceTiming the head coach of the officer’s favorite NFL team.

Russini: “What a nasty play… but it worked.” 😳

Did Dianna Russini accidentally leak Morgan Moses to the Patriots? https://t.co/kLMQ0YmQ4y

@eddiemcpigskin The one and only

[Neil Stratton @InsideTheLeague]

Ryan Grigson no longer appears on the #Vikings website. We're told he's leaving his post as Assistant GM in Minnesota for a new opportunity. We're working to confirm his next stop.

Got through Trey’Dez Green’s film recently — whoo, what a ride!

Matchup nightmare — north of 6’6, long arms, ball skills, and a you-gotta-see-it-to-believe-it athlete who is going to break the NFL Combine in February.

"They're going to put teams in a conflict with Trey'Dez Green downfield and I expect this guy to utterly go off this year" 🏈

[Thor Nystrom @thorku]

@Andrew_McBride Yup

[Thor Nystrom @thorku]

Another NBA Draft, another year of needless confusion over which team is picking a player

[Thor Nystrom @thorku]

But not in a serious role — very little personnel influence.

Issue with Grigson is he was the right-hand man to an over-his-head GM. He’d proven with the Colts that he shouldn’t be making personnel decisions, and he comes to the Vikings and has big roster-building say for ~5 yrs

[JP Theodoro @JPTheodoro01]

@thorku Now we have Ryan Pace tho, but a win is a win

[Thor Nystrom @thorku]

@JoeyA226 Until right this moment I didn’t know that a Ryan Grigson Apologist existed. This is cool. Very nice to meet you.

[Judd Zulgad @jzulgad]

Confirmed Ryan Grigson has left Vikings to pursue a role with another NFL team. Grigson was given the opportunity to remain in a different capacity on the staff of new GM Nolan Teasley. He had been around during the recent minicamp. Both assistant GMs under Kwesi are now gone.

@BD97 @InsideTheLeague

[Thor Nystrom @thorku]

@tkothe_nfl He was banned from CFB, his reputation has been tarnished, his career earnings take an incalculable haircut, he finished in-patient rehab, and all of his issues have been aired publicly.

What other not-on-the-books kick-the-dead-horse punishment should we vet out here?

[Thor Nystrom @thorku]

Don’t forget Hunter Dekkers (sports betting).

The NFL is making an unprecedented ruling in delaying (and hinting at the possibility of barring?) the entree of an eligible prospect who applied on time.

[Albert Breer @AlbertBreer]

I can't remember the NFL ever denying a player entry to the supplemental draft. They've let guys in who were ruled ineligible because of drugs (Josh Gordon), NCAA rule-breaking (Terrelle Pryor) and grades (Ahmad Brooks), over and over.

Clearly, the NFL is drawing a line here.

[Thor Nystrom @thorku]

@nebraskanicole1 You’d have to be pretty obtuse to believe that is the precedent set in their history.

[Thor Nystrom @thorku]

Mixed opinion on Sorsby decision.

A football world that could no longer enforce simple rules turned Sorsby into the cautionary tale proving there's still a line ~ may save others.

But the NFL's Morality Police act is a bit rich. He applied in time. Let the 32 teams rebuke him.

[SKOR North - Minnesota Sports @SKORNorth]

NFL declines Brendan Sorsby's supplemental draft application 🙅‍♂️

- Reaction to Sorsby decision
- NCAA's 5-for-5 eligibility model
- Who's Thor Watching?: LSU TE Trey'Dez Green

@BD97 So… let them not pick him? Like every other example of extreme character concern in the history of the NFL?
