What had been hailed as a potentially Hall of Fame career was cut short at the start of just its second season, as WNBA superstar Caitlin Clark was indicted for murder after fouling Angel Reese.
The incident occurred during a game between the Indiana Fever and the Chicago Sky, with Clark, who has been violently and mercilessly fouled an estimated eight trillion times in the past year, fouling Reese. Although Reese survived and was unharmed, it was announced immediately following the game that Clark had been indicted for her murder.
"The game of basketball is no place for this level of wanton violence," said WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert. "As soon as we saw that Caitlin Clark had committed the foul against Angel Reese and not the other way around, we contacted the authorities to ask for charges to be filed."

Ben Crump just showed in Chiraq to comfort the family, set-up a go fund me account, and prepare for a civil suit.
Ben Crump too stupid to know the Babylon Bee is satire.
Yes, the white girl is continually hit hard and we’re told it’s just part of the game. The white girl intentionally fouls a black girl hard and now it’s time for a conversation.
Call the wah-mbulance.
