Again with the breaking news, Ken Gordon of the Columbus Dispatch reports that Ralph Gray Decker has had his simple battery charge upgraded to a felony and is now in jail.
Prosecutors last week said they were pursuing a felony charge based on the seriousness of Moeller’s injuries. And this morning, at 12:12 to be exact, Decker was arrested by the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Department.
He is currently in jail, held on a $20,000 bond. If convicted, the maximum sentence is five years in prison and a $5,000 fine.
Good. Now get that conviction and be done with it. Decker deserves his time behind bars. Unfortunately, it means that Decker can’t attend tonight’s open practice at Ohio Stadium.

Quick note – if you’re a Michigan blogger and you also work for The Sporting News, the aforementioned comment “Decker can’t attend tonight’s open practice at Ohio Stadium” is not meant to be interpreted as a potential threat to beat up Decker, nor is it a desire to see his home burned down and/or his dog’s new litter of puppies kidnapped. Please use your better judgment when interpreting such comments.
