    This is SportsJournalists.com, not CrimeJournalists.com. We don't have to say Jacoby Jones "allegedly" fumbled on the 2-yard line.

    I'm pretty sure no one is saying he allegedly slaughtered his family.

    Exactly. But if Jacoby Jones gets arrested, you're expected to help -- if not write the story outright -- and this is one of the basic fundamentals of crime reporting.
