Former NFL Star Arrested for Having Public Sex at Arcade

The former NFL star was booked alongside a woman for public indecency. Both had admitted drinking "several shots".

Former NFL player Stedman Bailey has been arrested in Pembroke Pines, Florida. As reported by Local10 News, he was booked for performing a lewd act in an arcade in the Pembroke Lakes Mall.

Police accused the 35-year-old former NFL star of having public sex with 35-year-old Karina Manderson. Both were arrested and booked with public indecency, following an investigation.

Police explained that witness told them they had seen the two performing the act in the bar area of the arcade, and told them to stop. When they reviewed surveillance footage, they saw Manderson "leaned over at the waist" with Bailey behind her.

However, after they were told to stop, they had pulled their pants up and left the bar area.

The police interviewed the suspects - they both admitted to taking several shots. Bailey also admitted "they both had their pants down", but "penetration never took place".

Police added that there was no evidence during the investigation to say that either suspects' drinks were tampered with.

The Former NFL Star Played for the Rams

Stedman Bailey was a wide receiver for the St. Louis Rams between 2013 and 2015. He had been a third round NFL draft pick in 2013.

However, his career came to an end in 2015 after he was shot twice in the head in Miami Gardens. He recalled what happened in a post on gun control activism website Moments That Survive.

"On the Wednesday before Thanksgiving in 2015," he wrote, "I was sitting in the front of my rented SUV in Miami Gardens with my two little cousins and their dad in the back of the truck. We were waiting for my friend, and I was looking at my phone when a car pulled up and shot at us 30 times."

"My cousin jumped on his kids and shielded them. He was shot 11 times in the process. I was shot twice in the head. My skull was shattered, and my career as a wide receiver with the St. Louis Rams ended."

"Even though I lost my football career, I consider myself a walking miracle. I lived, and I don't take my fate for granted," he added.
