Who's gonna post Lou Anna Simon's bail?
She was just arrested for lying to cops in the Nassar case. Max is 4 years prison.
Sorry, tried to embed.

I’m thinking it should say “she was *not* aware-“
November 20th, 2018 at 3:18 PM ^
Not fully
November 20th, 2018 at 3:24 PM ^
She told police and Title IX investigators that she didn't know anything about Nassar or any investigation or penalties about him. She lied to get out of the trouble she was in. She knew full well what had been going on...
November 20th, 2018 at 3:49 PM ^
My understanding is she told them she knew "a" doctor was under investigation, but said she did not know it was Nassar, specifically. Which the court documents prove was a lie.
November 20th, 2018 at 3:00 PM ^
Dantonio is good for a bailout or two.
November 20th, 2018 at 3:34 PM ^
Only if she suits up on Saturday
November 20th, 2018 at 3:40 PM ^
BREAKING: Lou Anna K Simon to start at QB vs. Rutgers
November 20th, 2018 at 4:36 PM ^
At least no one will want to sack her.
November 20th, 2018 at 3:00 PM ^
Now we're talking.
November 20th, 2018 at 3:01 PM ^
Perhaps this was the success Dantonio was referring to?
November 20th, 2018 at 3:01 PM ^
That's a bad look when your university president is charged with two felonies.
November 20th, 2018 at 4:44 PM ^
I'm sure they will just chalk it up to #disrespekt
November 20th, 2018 at 3:01 PM ^
And this right here is why you don't say a damn thing to any LEO without your lawyer present.
Glad she's being charged though.
November 20th, 2018 at 3:19 PM ^
Didn't MSU already try claiming every single internal email under "attorney-client privilege"?
November 20th, 2018 at 4:45 PM ^
Or you could just tell the damned truth.
November 20th, 2018 at 4:51 PM ^
What a concept!
November 20th, 2018 at 3:01 PM ^
Dantonio has a system in place for this. She’ll be at practice tonight.
November 20th, 2018 at 3:03 PM ^
Maybe we will see her on the side of the road, chained to her girlfriend, picking trash during a blizzard.
November 20th, 2018 at 3:05 PM ^
Tell me more...
November 20th, 2018 at 3:04 PM ^
Well they could charge a dollar a head at this Saturday's football game that should raise about $10
November 20th, 2018 at 3:04 PM ^
Whatever punishment she gets, it's less than she deserves. To think this was a person that MSU just let walk away from the whole situation, gave her a BS President Emeritus role, lifetime football tickets, and some fat, sweaty wad of cash to go with it.
I'm sure Engler will post her bail and find a way to continue demonizing the Nassar survivors as money-hungry opportunists.
November 20th, 2018 at 3:27 PM ^
They also spent $1M on her new office. They should have thrown her sorry ass to the curb with the garbage.
November 20th, 2018 at 6:20 PM ^
To be fair, the football tickets are a pretty harsh punishment
November 20th, 2018 at 3:05 PM ^
She was caught trying to disguise herself before the trial...
November 20th, 2018 at 3:27 PM ^
The Colonel doesn’t deserve that
November 20th, 2018 at 4:01 PM ^
Wait, I thought this thread was about Lou Anna Simons what does Miss Jane from the Beverly Hillbillies have to do with this story
November 20th, 2018 at 3:05 PM ^
I would contribute a Zimbabwe dollar.
Ah, who am I kidding? No I wouldn't.
November 20th, 2018 at 3:06 PM ^
Wonder if she has any info to give as she pursues a plea agreement...
November 20th, 2018 at 3:11 PM ^
Are Izzo and Mork going to be arrested next for harboring rapists?
November 20th, 2018 at 3:16 PM ^
That’s BS...next question...
November 20th, 2018 at 3:17 PM ^
Her resignation letter said, “tragedies are politicized. Blame is inevitable.” When I read that I thought it said a lot about her leadership and the culture at MSU.
November 20th, 2018 at 3:24 PM ^
Ha why not go full FDR: “We have nothing to blame except blame itself.”
November 20th, 2018 at 3:17 PM ^
At least she will have a lot of familiar MSU friends in jail to hang out with. #SpartanSwill
November 20th, 2018 at 3:34 PM ^
She is going to get off very, very easy you guys.
Do not, I said, DO NOT get your hopes up regarding anything remotely associated with what you would otherwise call justice.
November 20th, 2018 at 5:29 PM ^
The problem with the way this stuff is reported is that the supposed "maximum sentence" is usually based on the statutory maximum and not on the sentencing guidelines. If she gets convicted a judge following the law will use the sentencing guidelines to calculate the sentence. The guideline formula is based in part on the offender's criminal history. Assuming she has no criminal history, if the judge follows the law she will get very little time in prison or, more likely, no time in prison at all.
In other words, the media-reported maximum is flat-out wrong. It's bad because then when the judge follows the law everyone thinks the offender is getting off easy.
November 20th, 2018 at 3:35 PM ^
Just another case of littering.
November 20th, 2018 at 3:40 PM ^
hope she rots - burn that school and its rape enabling culture to the fucking ground
November 20th, 2018 at 3:52 PM ^
If I was Lou, I would consider acquiring some muscle for protection. If certain anonymous coaches find out that she was going to turn states evidence, there might be a chance of an unfortunate accident.
November 20th, 2018 at 9:01 PM ^
Ski masks are flying off the shelves at local department stores.
November 21st, 2018 at 11:49 AM ^
Mork Donatelli is going to send some of his players “undercover” to prison to make sure all is well. It will be totally on purpose and planned.
November 20th, 2018 at 4:13 PM ^
Maybe Engler will cover it, because this was clearly all a setup by Michigan.
November 20th, 2018 at 4:18 PM ^
But the NCAA said they were satisfied that everything was handled accordingly....
November 20th, 2018 at 8:41 PM ^
If it were up to the NCAA, Simon wouldn't have been charged and instead they would have flagged Karan Higdon for holding.
November 20th, 2018 at 4:37 PM ^
Spartans will... have the right to remain silent.
November 20th, 2018 at 4:41 PM ^
i still live in a world in my head where you can lie to the cops - if it's not under oath it's ok.
this is not the case in the real world
November 20th, 2018 at 5:02 PM ^
Bush League University
November 20th, 2018 at 5:06 PM ^
Well done on the thread title. Informative and made me laugh at the same time.
November 20th, 2018 at 5:28 PM ^
Weird. I reached into my pocket to get my wallet and came out with a middle finger. Hmmmm
November 20th, 2018 at 6:31 PM ^
It's truly a golden age for MSU, all facets.
