I want the prosecutor to carefully prepare his or her case and then a jury who hears all the appropriate (and ONLY the appropriate information). Until then, despite (or ESPECIALLY) because of the furor over the accusations people need to be very careful about jumping to conclusions and/or taking actions that are based on a presumption of guilt. Endorsemen contracts should probably be "suspending" (hold running ads or filming new ones). As a private employer, the Falcons can make personnel moves that they believe are in their best interest. But I also think that they need to be careful that they handle this as an employee embroilled in a legal battle and NOT as a criminal on the payroll.
