Here's the biggest point of curiosity with criminal complaint against Watson
WATSON WATCH
05 April 2021
Monday on NBC Sports, Mike Florio and Chris Simms react to the criminal complaint against Deshaun Watson that was reported on Friday. We still don't know if the person bringing a criminal complaint against Watson is also involved in the civil lawsuit, or if it's a different person all together. Florio believes this is the biggest point of curiosity with this case. Lawyer Tony Buzbee stated last week that he would not be involving the Houston Police Department, so if he had a change of heart he would have most likely said something.
If the person filing a criminal complaint against Watson isn't involved in the civil lawsuit, Florio believes that would be worse for Deshaun, assuming the person's story seems credible. The thought would be that this person isn't looking to gain anything financially, and is just out for justice. Florio also mentions that very often these cases don't go very far if the prosecutor doesn't believe they have a good chance of winning the case. Check out the video to learn more.
