And Leach is beginning to tell his side of the story.
It has been widely reported that Leach locked Adam James in a closet or a shed after James sustained a concussion at a practice last month. Leach said he only ordered James to be taken “out of the light” and did not know specifically where he had been taken.

This reminds me of someone being accused of child molestation. One is guilty until proven innocent and by the time it's all over, if the person is innocent, so what?, their careers and personal lives are already ruined.

I belong to the latter. Innocent first, not the other way around, which is what happens so often in practice.
