Well, I can tell you that I do know for sure who is involved, but I am not going to say a word out of respect for UK and the players and their families. I will say that I have seen a ton of posts from a lot of message boards, and it looks like Louisville fans have decided to kick it up a notch. One of their fans posted this……
It is for sure Micah Johnson, I live in Lexington and work for District Court….I don’t have any specifics, but charges could range from felony fleeing and evading, to felony wanton endangerment, to disorderly conduct, etc….I would suspect that all of them would get some sort of fleeing and evading charge if they forced the police to chase them on foot after being told they were police officers and being ordered to stop….I think thats fleeing and evading 2nd, which carries either a $2,500, $3,000 or $5,000 bond, I can’t remember, I wanna say its $2,500 and fleeing or evading in a motor vehicle is $5,000…..as for the gun charges if it was just fired off and not at someone, then it will probably be wanton endangerment 2nd, which is a think a Class A misdemeanor, but if it can be proven that it was fired at someone or even pointed at some one in a threatening manner then we are talking about felony wanton endangerment and terroristic threatening…..
Either way, I would suspect that if Micah Johnson was as much involved in this as I am hearing, along with Alphonso Smith, I think, then both of their college careers are done with and its a HUGE loss for UK….have no clue who the other two players are or even if Alphonso Smith was involved, I’m hearing he was, but the constant is that Micah Johnson was for sure involved in this…
Now, first off, if this person really does hold the job they say, then they should be in trouble at work for putting this up on a message board. Kind of ridiculous to say that you work for the court and you don’t know for sure but you would think it is this person or that person. Either way I can tell you that the person who posted this is either trying to get some kind of attention or just trying to put names out there.
Everything will be out soon enough and it will be very devistating for UK. I do know that the UK administration is very very upset and has really laid it down on the players. Most of the players are not willing to discuss any part of this issue other than saying it is very bad and they are shocked. I am sure there will be some news tomorrow, but would not say that names will be released just yet.

I agree this should get someone’s job if they are employed with the Courts and they are releasing such information. As for the players involved what were they thinking, or not. UK unlike other programs in ths SEC can’t afford these types of off field stunts. Two summers in a row and key players in trouble. Looks like they must put them on lockdown in the dorms all year long.

Why are you people calling for this guy (presumably employed w/in the district court system) to get in trouble? If anyone is arrested or otherwise charged with criminal activity then that is public information. The police publish DUI suspect’s photos in local newspapers (prior to anyone being being convicted) across the country. A court employee saying that Micah being charged with this or that and the various scenarios that may result are not crimes or even irresponsible actions.

If Micah Johnson is not involved and is labeled as something he is not then it is definitely irresponsible. If there are no public records that Micah Johnson or anyone else has been arrested then I tend to think this guy who is posting on a UofL board should probably keep his information to himself. That is precisely why I refuse release the names that I have been given. It is out of respect for the players, their families, UK and also for the court system who apparently is not saying anything for one reason or another. If it is such public information then where are the public records and why has no one gone to get them?
