    Buffalo police threaten Bills RB with obstruction of justice

    Buffalo Bills running back Marshawn Lynch made it to the team's workout Tuesday, but by the afternoon he still hadn't spoken to Buffalo police about a hit-and-run they say involved his SUV.


    Police spokesperson Mike DeGeorge said on Tuesday afternoon that Lynch's attorney had made contact the previous day but that a meeting had not been set up.

    "Right now, the ball is in their court. The clock would be ticking," said DeGeorge. "Police have made it clear to Mr. Lynch's representative that they would like some answers, expect some answers, and if they don't start getting some answers then they could take some other action."

    DeGeorge said Lynch could face an obstruction of justice charge if he doesn't co-operate.

        He cannot be obstructing himself, can he?? The police are grasping at straws to try to figure out the story, that's getting more & more obvious.

          But if Lynch was innocent, he would have been calling the police to clear his name, not having the police wait on him. This doesn't look good.

              If he is represented by an attorney he does not have to say a word. Having been in law enforcement for 33 years I wouldn't say anything without my attorney present. Let the attorney earn his money.

                I agree, but this thing is beginning to smell like dead fish.
                Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

                  Although, if he loaned his car out to a friend - he needs to tell the friend to 'fess up IMEDIATELY, because he's on his way to the cops to tell them who had his car.

                    I may be naive - maybe because I've never been involved in this kind of thing - but I've always thought that when you're innocent, you just come forward and cooperate in any way possible.

                    Hiding behind your lawyer just doesn't seem like the way to do things if you don't have at least some culpability in the event.

                            his lawyer has advised him to keep shut. that's what he's doing.

                            i'll wait til the facts come out before i make a judgement.

                            there are obviously other situations at play here. any number of things could have happened.... teammate or family member at the wheel while he was in the car, car was stolen, marshawn behind the wheel, etc.

                            anyone had to deal with cops or lawyers before? it's best to keep your mouth shut and not give the po's any cheese to poke holes in because that's all they enjoy doing.

                              Absolutely. But the appearance of some kind of culpability on Marshawn's behalf becomes stronger every day that goes by.
