The New York Times••sports
Key Points:
- New England Patriots defensive tackle Christian Barmore faces a misdemeanor assault and battery charge related to an alleged incident in August involving his then-girlfriend, with arraignment scheduled for February 3 in Attleboro District Court.
- The charge stems from accusations that Barmore threw the woman to the ground and threatened her after a dispute over the air conditioner and food, with the woman initially hesitant to press charges due to threats from Barmore.
- Barmore’s attorney denies any criminal conduct and expects the matter to be resolved soon, while the Patriots have stated they are aware of the situation, are cooperating with the NFL, and will respect the ongoing legal process.
- The charge against Barmore comes shortly after teammate Stefon Dig
