Getty ImagesA prospect in next year’s NFL draft has seen his college career come to an end after he suffered injuries when he was attacked by his girlfriend.
According to the Miami Herald, Florida International senior tight end Jonnu Smith suffered season-ending injuries when he was struck and had boiling water poured on him in a domestic violence incident.
An arrest affidavit says Smith suffered severe burns on his head, neck, back, shoulder and arm when his girlfriend, Mary Gaspar, boiled water in his dorm room and dumped it on him, then struck him with her open hands. The affidavit says Gaspar admitted to police that she did it, stating it was because she was upset that he wasn’t paying enough attention to her.
Gaspar, who is five months pregnant with Smith’s child, was charged with aggravated battery.
Smith is back on campus but his burns will not heal in time for him to play this season. He is viewed as a potential NFL pick after a very productive career as a four-year starter playing for coach Ron Turner, a former Bears offensive coordinator who runs a pro-style offense.
disgusting
sheesh!! he got her pregnant too? good luck my man
NFL should drop the hammer on him. Indefinite ban!!
What is wrong with people? Talk about problems don’t resort to violence.
Where do these “people” come from?!
What a psycho woman.
She just killed the golden goose. Gonna miss all the child support an NFL career would have provided.
She sounds sweet.
Well, she’s going to get plenty of attention now.
Guessing his wonderlic score won’t be all that high. It’s one thing to date the crazy hot chick, it’s another to impregnate her.
That’s your meal ticket you’re pouring boiling water on there, sweetie.
She sounds like a real winner.
I don’t think Jonnu studied the Vicki Mendoza Diagonal carefully enough. What are they teaching these guys at Florida International?
All lives matter….. Or do they??!!
Classy woman there! haha The Bills’ kicker’s wife should have used that analogy of inflicting pain on Dread Sherman instead of the one she used.
bet she’s HoT!
Gentlemen, always cut ties with a crazy woman… It may save your life….
“It’s one thing to date the crazy hot chick, it’s another to impregnate her.”
–And to make matters worse, she really isn’t that hot. Do a google image search on Mary Gaspar. Meh, says I
Grit bowl.
good thing he didn’t hit her because as we all have been told repeatedly- IT IS NEVER OK TO PUT YOUR HANDS ON A WOMEN
Only in….FLORIDA!!!!
this female on male violence happens way more often than you would think and I’m sure is the spark for many men being charged after the fact with the allegation
So you have two choices, subdue your crazy girlfriend and have your career ended… OR… Keep your hands off of her and have your career ended. Seems legit.
I wonder if she was suspended from her job for 6 weeks without due process?
What are the chances goodell suspends him when he makes it the NFL next year, “just in case”.
She better be in jail
Jail and damages for her and be declared unfit to keep child
Prison system will now foot then ill tonhabe the child. And we wonder what’s wrong with this country.
This all happened during a commercial break on Maury!
Dumb TPT
Holy cow. I would make sure she went to prison, I would take full custody of the child and make her pay support for 18 years.
I feel very bad for him but something tells me he’s going to stay with her. She doesn’t go from 0 to boiling water overnight. For his sake and the sake of his unborn child I hope he does the sane thing and stay away from her then file for sole custody of that child. You can’t cure that kind of crazy.
that’s one slow burn of an attack waiting for water to boil
Need to make sure to suspend him since he’s a man and obviously guilty, since violence is perpetrated by men against women, women can’t control their emotions, and obviously he triggered her.
I like the way you work it, No diggity, I got to bag it up, bag it up
Women be shoppin, baby! Women be shoppin!!
Yeah because burning the hell out of someone is gong to get them to love you more and give you more attention.
SMH
This should result in jail time no question about it.
I hope some NFL teams give him a shot or at least some tryouts…As for her. They should get her for Attempted murder and take her kid from her for him to raise. The comments above are legit. If he defended himself, they would have charged him and he would have never had a shot at a NFL Career
Nice of her to take time out of her post-election protesting.
She deserves jail, nothing short. I don’t care if you are a female/male.
Them hoes be crazy
Tough bish…good luck with that mess
Going out on a limb here. But girl, being 5 months pregnant, you probably got all the attention your were going to get from this guy. Ask Adrian Peterson’s or Antonio Cromartie’s baby mommas how THAT works.
Wait until the postpartum kicks in! Man better start listening to the people who have common sense and care about him.
