ATLANTIC CITY, NJ -- A law enforcement official says he sent a video of Ray Rice punching his then-fiancee to an NFL executive three months ago, while league officers have insisted they didn't see the violent images until this week.
The person played The Associated Press a 12-second voicemail from an NFL office number on April 9 confirming the video arrived. A female voice expresses thanks and says: "You're right. It's terrible."
The law enforcement official, speaking to the AP on condition of anonymity because of the ongoing investigation, says he had no further communication with any NFL employee and can't confirm anyone watched the video. The person said they were unauthorized to release the video but shared it unsolicited, because they wanted the NFL to have it before deciding on Rice's punishment.

Things are a lot different for this woman. She married him after he knocked her out. And that wasn’t the first time he hit her. Also she is a college graduate and times have changed a lot for women in the work force. She obviously has self esteem problems and poor decision skills. I hardly think she is in some kind of trap. Not to mention she has all the evidence now to take him for all his money in divorce court. I will say this, I have never spit on a girlfriend nor have I been spit on by a girlfriend. That should be a deal breaker in any relationship. Never mind the fisticuffs.
