NFL player Deshazor Everett has been charged with involuntary manslaughter in connection to a fatal car crash in December that killed his girlfriend.
On Tuesday, the Washington Commanders safety turned himself into the Loudoun County Adult Detention Center. He was released on a $10,000 bond.
Everett traveled twice the posted 45 miles per hour speed limit in his Nissan GT-R on December 23, 2021, in Virginia. The vehicle went off the road around 9:15 p.m. and crashed into several trees before rolling over.
Olivia S. Peters, 29, of Las Vegas, and a passenger in the car, was taken to StoneSprings Hospital, where she died. Everett was taken to the hospital and treated for non-life-threatening injuries. He spent four days in the hospital before being released.
“Our team continues to investigate this matter as we intend on vigorously defending Mr. Everett against these allegations,” Everett’s attorney, Kaveh Noorishad, told ESPN in a statement. “We continue to ask that judgment be reserved until all facts are fully investigated and litigated in the proper form.”
Everett has been with Washington since 2015 as a special teams player, where he has served as captain since 2018.
