MEGGETT IS A SERIAL RAPIST, ALLEGEDLY

Former NFL linebacker Bill Romanowski once tried while at the bottom of a pile to remove one of Dave Meggetts fingers from his hand.

Maybe Romanowski should have targeted a different region of Meggetts anatomy.

Meggett, a former running back with the Giants, Jets, and Patriots, has been charged twice in the past four months with rape.

Most recently, Meggett is accused of raping a 21-year-old woman in her South Carolina home . She allegedly woke up at 1:00 a.m. on Tuesday and found a guy she knows as Mike sitting on her bed. Mike demanded that she repay $200 tht she owed him. When she couldnt produce the money, he forced himself onto her. (Najeh Davenport says he would have suggested a different approach.)

In September 2008, Meggett was charged with third-degree sexual assault of a 17-year-old South Carolina girl.

Both incidents occurred while Meggett was on probation for a 2006 sexual battery charge.

In 1998, Meggett was charged with assaulting a woman in Toronto after she refused to continue to have sex with him. Though the charge was dropped, the Patriots promptly dropped Meggett.

But, fortunately, the women of South Carolina (and the rest of the world) can now sleep easily. Meggett is being held without bond in an atmosphere where the perpetrators of rape often find themselves on the other end of the act.
