Colts Linebacker D’Qwell Jackson Found Guilty for “Simple Assault” Charge in Washington D.C.!

Looks like its another week another NFL player getting in trouble and this time its Colts Linebacker D’Qwell Jackson! It is reported that he was found guilty of attacking a pizza man in Washington D.C. over a parking space!

Last year, Jackson was arrested for reportedly beating a pizza driver for Italian Pizza who apparently parked near his million dollar home. According to the Washington Post, the victim claimed that the 6-foot-tall, 242-pound football player had punched him in the head multiple times because he “momentarily” parked in front of Jackson’s home.

Jackson, who was the one who blew the whistle on the Patriots’ football deflating scandal, admitted to police that he told the driver to “get the (expletive) out of my parking space.” He also admitted to putting his paws on the victim but says he did it in self defense!

Now Jackson was found guilty for the simple assault charge and could face up to 180 days in jail and pay up to $1000 in fines. The victim has also filed a civil suit against Jackson which will be heard in court at the end of April.
