USA Today sports

Key Points:

  • John Darjean, a former security guard owed $11.89 million by Shilo Sanders, collapsed in court after testifying in Sanders' bankruptcy trial, but was later released from the hospital.
  • Sanders is attempting to discharge the $11.89 million judgment awarded to Darjean for a 2015 assault incident at Sanders' school, which Darjean claims caused serious and ongoing health issues.
  • A witness for Sanders testified that Darjean choked Sanders, contradicting a recorded phone call in which the witness denied seeing Sanders’ neck being grabbed, raising questions about the reliability of the testimony.
  • Police and medical reports presented in court supported Darjean’s version of events, noting Sanders as the suspect in an assault causing serious bodily injury, although Sanders denies striking Darjean and claims he was the victim.
  • The judge has released Deion Sanders from testifying and will decide the case based on the evidence presented, focusing on whether the debt stems from a "willful and malicious injury," which would prevent discharge in bankruptcy.
