Giants cornerback Deandre Baker turned himself in to police on Saturday morning, his lawyer announced (via Instagram). Baker is facing a number of felony counts in connection with an armed robbery, though he maintains his innocence.

“Police reports are just that, reports of what was told to them or said to them,” said attorney Bradford Cohen. “Court is what we use to then examine those reports, investigate those claims and allow the defendant an opportunity to confront the evidence. Don’t rush to judgement.”
The witness statement and police reports claim that Baker held people at gunpoint while fellow NFL cornerback Quinton Dunbar grabbed the loot. Police are pursuing a total of eight charges against Baker while Dunbar is looking at four. The Giants, Seahawks, and the NFL have all declined to comment on the matter, except to say that they are aware of the situation. Dunbar, presumably, will follow suit by cooperating with the authorities.
In his final year at Georgia, Baker won the Jim Thorpe Award, given to the nation’s top collegiate defensive back. In that season, he finished out with 40 tackles, two sacks, nine passes defended, and two interceptions. The 5-foot-11 cornerback started and struggled for most of his rookie season; the Giants were hoping to see a major step forward from him in 2020. At this point, his availability for this year is very much in doubt.
A couple of dopes! WTF is wrong with these guys?
Tried to produce their own Bad Boys For Life movie.
the wild wild west!!!
If he’s guilty he should be suspended from football for life.
Then what should have happened to Adrian Peterson, Ray Lewis, and Ben Rothlisburger?
Those guys should’ve been at least arrested, but of course they weren’t, because they’re “famous” unlike this POS that’s also a garbage corner.
Eugene,
Sorry about your Sens. Not familiar with AP legal issues or Rays … how about Big Bens now was it not settled out of court?
What about Robert Kraft starring in geriatric fetish films?
Kraft being an old widower, I don’t care if he gets a handy. He’s not a player, and that’s an extreme comparison to robbing a party at gunpoint.
What I don’t understand is why a man with that kind of wealth is going to a crappy strip mall for it?
what happened to big Ben?
He allegedly sexually assaulted at least two women. There’s plenty of info online about it, but if you want to dig into the details, you can start with his wikipedia page:

Absolutely! Sick of these thugs getting themselves a high prices suit just to get them off. If there are supposedly 11 people who had the same story bout what these 2 did that night, im assuming that atleast half of them are telling the truth! They should be DONE with the NFL but some desperate team will end up signing one of em. Pathetic
I really don’t understand how some of these defense attorneys sleep at night. What a load of crap. Yeah, I’m sure all the people who were robbed and the others at the party told the same lie about your client
Retarded.
Reports are just reports even when 70 people were witness. I heard they hired Kraft’s slippery attorney
I am sure it was a misunderstanding or mistaken identity. Here comes the out of court settlement and getting paid millions. Oh, they both will be playing in NFL in the fall.
