it's a shame that just when he seeme to have gotten himself on the right path that he died. it's always a shame when someone so young passes, especially when it's in a situation like this.

his past notwithstanding, he was only 26 and had been 'clean and sober' so to speak for two years.

some folks might try to remember if you can't say something nice, don't say anything. he was someone's friend, someone's son, cousin, etc. would you want one of his grieving family members to read what you wrote? probably not.

If a cop game by and took him in for this domestic disturbance, would you still feel like he had gotten his life under control?

As far as it being a shame, it is more of a shame fantini33 and Herkhorse didn't bring home the Tampa Bay P4 after bagging a 100 dollar horse in the first leg. I am not happy Chris Henry died I'm apathetic and astonished that there are those that glorify him.

If it doesn't matter if it was domestic violence or not...The guy got in the back of a moving vehicle(pick-up no less) and fell out. That's an assclown. He's 26, not 15.

I am a little unfamiliar with the late Chris Henry. What was the worst thing he did as far as crimes go? Did he ever kill anybody? Any really violent acts? I read that he got caught with pot and a handgun in different circumstances but what beyond that?

Yep a real gem.

On December 15, 2005, Henry was pulled over in northern Kentucky for speeding. During a search, marijuana was found in his shoes. He was also driving without a valid driver's license or valid insurance.[17] He pleaded guilty and served avoided jail sentence.

One month later, on January 30, 2006 he was arrested in Orlando, Florida for multiple gun charges including concealment and aggravated assault with a firearm.[18] He was reported to have been wearing his #15 Bengals jersey at the time of his arrest. He pleaded guilty to this charge and avoided jail time.

On April 29, Henry allowed three underage females to consume alcohol at a hotel in Covington, Kentucky.[19] One of the three, an 18-year-old woman, accused Henry of sexually assaulting her; she later retracted her story and was charged with filing a false police report.[20] On January 25, 2007, Henry pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor violation of a city ordinance commonly referred to as a "keg law." He was sentenced to 90 days in jail, with all but two of those days being suspended.[19]

He was pulled over on Interstate 275 in Ohio on June 3 at 1:18 A.M. by Ohio Highway Patrol trooper Michael Shimko for surmised drunk driving. He voluntarily submitted to a breathalyzer test at 2:06 A.M. at the Milford Police Department and registered a .092 blood-alcohol level, .012 above the level permitted in the state of Ohio.[21]

On October 6, he was suspended by the NFL for two games for violating the league's personal conduct and substance abuse policies. NFL policies forbid Henry from taking part in practices, however, he was allowed to attend any team meetings. Henry missed the Bengals' October 15, 2006 game at Tampa Bay and their October 22, 2006 home game versus Carolina.[22]

On the following April, Henry was suspended for the first eight games of the 2007 NFL season for violations of the NFL's personal conduct policy.[11][16] His suspension on the 10th came with a stern warning that future misconduct may result in the end of his career with the NFL. Henry was given permission by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell to begin practicing fully.[23] His suspension was lifted and he played in the November 11, 2007 game versus the Baltimore Ravens, amassing 4 catches for 99 yards.

Henry allegedly assaulted a valet attendant at Newport on the Levee in Newport, Kentucky on November 6, 2007.[24] He was arrested for a second time in Orlando on December 3 for violating his probation he was on from a January 30, 2006 arrest. On February 21, 2008 he was found not guilty.

On March 31, 2008, Henry was alleged to have punched a man named Gregory Meyer, 18, and thrown a beer bottle through the window of his car. Henry claimed it was a case of mistaken identity and also that he thought it was somebody else that owed him money.[25] Henry was waived by the Bengals a day after this arrest and was then forced to serve a house arrest sentence.

It sounded like plenty of his fiance's family was at the hospital with him last night, so whatever situation they were in couldn't have been all that bad.

RIP

Ok I'll lighten up.

Its good that Chris Henry died because it will save innocent white people that he was going to kill in the future and some puppies. Yay I love when 26 year old black kids get killed by falling out of trucks! I wish someone would post a video on youtube!

offering condolences and not taking the opportunity to bring up his less than ideal past isn't exactly glorifying him. and if you were truly apathetic you wouldn't even have bothered to visit this thread.
