If some cowardly punk ordered an assassin to shoot me and sever my spinal chord, so that I couldn’t walk or go to the bathroom like everyone else on earth or have relations with my wife, 11 Million would be a Fing insult. Justice in this case could only be served with Death by Lethal injection. any idiot that believes that the wife is somehow not entitled to $750,000 for A) No Longer having Sex AND B) Unable to EVER have a child or Family which IS the case here. Is delusional. No monetary settlement in my opinion is justice for Tom Urbanski and the wife.

Finally found the shooter. Arvin Edwards, 29, of Renton, WA. He pled no contest to one count of attempted murder and one count of using a deadly weapon.

Sentenced to 4-10 years.

If you research how Jones was involved, there are a lot of moving parts to this story that we don’t really know how they were interpreted in court.

I’m not sure if paying $11M is easier to deal with than being sentenced to 4-10 years. Depends on Jones’ finances and how much he’ll actually be required to pay. I guess I’d rather be broke than spend years in jail.

Jones is slated to speak at the NFL rookie symposium, where he’s expected to tell young players to conduct themselves like professionals off the field.

Btw, for those who do not know Pacman has had financial issues in prior years. Four years ago he had a foreclosure in Nashville; no lie!!

For all of you posting that this isn’t fair get a clue. I live in Las Vegas, so this shooting was a big story for the local news. I’m sure quite a bit of the actual details never made it to the national news organizations, or they didn’t bother picking up the stories. This piece of sh!t Pac Man made it rain in a strip club. What did he think was going to happen? Of course the strippers all went for the cash. That’s their job. He got pissed and started hitting the girls. What you probably don’t know is that he paid them off to keep them from pressing charges/ testifying against him. The bouncers were just trying to keep the peace and this piece of sh!t orchestrated the melee that occured next. So yes he is responsible. He even helped hide the shooters identity at first until it was explained to him that he would take the fall for it. Then he sang like a bird. As for the money awarded, I doubt what he(Urbansky) was given will cover his medical expenses for the rest of his life.

I doubt that security guard would have ever seen $9,700,000 million dollars in his life time.

But then again, this is the same state that awarded Tim Bradley the victory over Manny Pacman.

PFT – he doesn’t want to be referred to as Pacman Jones. Just Adam Jones. Or he’ll pay a visit to your offices….

Wow for a crime he didn’t commit? He didn’t shoot anybody, he basically admitted to running his mouth. He already lost millions for missing the 2007 season.. I don’t think he had made anywhere near 9.6 million since then.. I hate Pacman but this seems like your taking advantage of someone’s social status.

This is a lesson to other punk sports stars. If you act like a criminal piece of sh*t, you will be made to pay. Given the fact that most can’t manage their money, their minimum wage earnings from being a bus boy will be garnished.

Good Luck Ms. Pacman!

That’s pretty crazy! It seems drastic. He bears some responsibility, but he didn’t shoot anyone or even have a weapon. How is he solely responsible for the injuries incurred?
===========

He’s not “solely responsible”. The shooter went to jail.

The jury determined that the shooting happened at Jones request. I think that makes him responsible enough to ensure the financial security of a man he arranged to have put in a wheelchair for life.

My favorite part is when he made it rain in the strip club then tried to grab his money back before the strippers could get….
