Miami Dolphins: Traffic case against Brian Hartline closed

by LeftCoastFinFan on Jul 30, 2010 12:35 PM EDT in 2012 Miami Dolphins News

According to a tweet by the Miami Herald's Mike Bernardino, Miami Dolphins coach Tony Sparano stated that the Florida Highway Patrol has closed the case against second year wide receiver Brian Hartline, with no charges being filed.

Apparently, Hartline finally spoke with the authorities, at which time he was issued a citation, paid a fine, and the matter has been "put to bed."

So far, no details are available regarding the conversation he had with police investigators, but it looks like Hartline won't be in hot water for fleeing the scene of an accident after all.

Great news

Hopefully Goodell doesn’t decide to suspend him now. That said, I doubt he will. Hartline isn’t of high enough profile yet.

besides, without more specific evidence, this is merely a traffic violation.

Sonofagun!

Just after I posted a comment in the 717 media article about Hartline’s case, I find this!

Well, I’m glad he did the right thing and resolved this. Good for him! (but he shoulda done it sooner).

by snorky on Jul 30, 2010 12:44 PM EDT reply actions

of course, if he hadda done it sooner, would he have still gotten off with just a fine?

lol

Relief for him

This is good for Hartline because training camp opens today. Now he can put the matter behind him and focus on football. This also solidifies there will be no punishment handed down by the NFL.

All he did was show the cops what he was rushing home for

I can see his luck on the field last year has poured over into his personal life, good for you Brian.
