Report: Former Arizona State defender arrested for threatening to 'spray the stadium up'
Only days after former Miami Dolphins OL Jonathan Martin was arrested and taken to a mental health facility for threatening gun violence against his former high school, another ex-college athlete is in jail.
On Feb. 23, former Arizona State DB Robbie Robinson was taken into custody for a series of tweets he sent, one of which included a threat of violence against Arizona State’s stadium.
The tweet about him trying to buy a gun is included below, containing some vulgar language at the end:
I hit up this @princessliizzz one night. to help find out where to get a gun. I’m tryna buy his gun cause I was about to clap niggas. Spray the stadium up. Give me 25. Give me life. Give me liberty or give me death. Idc. I’m not staying quiet. I’m hurt. Fuck y’all.
