Pearson released on $50,000 bond

Former Bucs safety Kalvin Pearson, arrested Saturday in Tampa on charges of domestic violence, was released on $50,000 bond, according to Hillsborough County Sheriff's office records.

Pearson, 29, who signed a three-year deal with the Lions last month after three seasons with the Bucs, will likely be arraigned on a later date; he's facing two felony charges, aggravated battery of a pregnant woman and domestic battery by strangulation, and a misdemeanor, obstructing or opposing an officer without violence.

Who cares? This isn't a Tampa Bay sports story. Post it elsewhere... maybe MySpace?

i agree.. he is now part of the detroit tampa bay lions... he didn't do anything for us except special teams, so this story does not belong in this site... i think we had a great draft today.. we adressed all our need areas

i agree. i think we shouldnt be spending money bailing immature players we should release him go back 2 f up detriot

Shame on the Lions for employing a player with such poor character.
