What’s On The Tape: Could The Incriminating Footage Against Dez Bryant Be Of An Incident In A Walmart Parking Lot ?

For the past few days the world has been patiently waiting to find out the contents of this mystery footage that is supposedly so bad it could end Dez Bryant’s career. While no one wants to see someone’s career ended, the rumors and speculation involving the tape, the Cowboys and the NFL has peaked our interest, to say the least.

There are many theories as to what’s holding up the release of the tape. A bidding war between Jerry Jones and the media? Publicity Stunt? There’s no tape at all?  New information from an incident back in 2011 has emerged.  Could this be what’s on the tape?

In a letter dated February 17, the City of Lancaster, Texas police department produced to NFL Media via the Texas Public Information Act an incident/investigation report from July 2011 regarding a police response to the Lancaster Wal-Mart.

The report mentions that an unknown person called the police to explain that a black female was “being dragged from one vehicle to another vehicle” by a black male.  The vehicle the woman was dragged from was a Mercedes registered to Dez Bryant.

When a police officer responded, a Wal-Mart security guard explained that he arrived at the scene with the door to the Mercedes still open and a child’s toy on the ground, but that no one was present.  Then, two men pulled up in an Escalade registered to Dez Bryant.  The two men, Carl King and Christopher Mitchell, said they received a call from the alleged victim, asking them to pick up “her” Mercedes.

Then, a Bentley arrived in the parking lot, with the alleged victim and Dez Bryant inside.  The alleged victim claimed that she had an argument with a man named Alex Penson, that she was not assaulted or injured in any way, and that it was “just an argument” with Penson.  The alleged victim claimed she was dropped off at a friend’s house, and that she contacted Bryant to pick her up.

The responding officer determined after talking to all parties that there was no offense, and that everyone was free to go.

The report doesn’t mention the availability of Wal-Mart surveillance video, or the contents of it.  Instead, it appears that the responding officer accepted the version(s) supplied by King, Mitchell, Bryant, and the alleged victim, and closed the case.

Most if not all Wal-Mart stores have surveillance cameras blanketing the property.  Indeed, the longstanding rumor making the rounds among NFL reporters has been not just that an incident occurred at a Wal-Mart parking lot, but that there is video of it.

Okay, so let’s break this all down:

– The incident happened in 2011

– The vehicles the woman was drug from and to are both registered to Dez Bryant

– No mention of Dez Bryant being on the scene

– As many cameras as Walmart has, no surveillance footage has popped up.

– The case was closed. No arrests.

Ehh, this can’t possibly be what the internet is buzzing about. Where’s the footage?
