Jona Keri assaults his wife

[Todd Van Anus]

Well-known sportswriter Jonah Keri was granted bail Friday following an alleged assault on his wife.

 

Keri faces four charges including three counts of assault causing bodily harm and uttering death threats.

 

He was detained Thursday after being arrested at the couple’s Montreal-area home.

 

Keri was handcuffed and wearing a green sweatshirt when he appeared in court Friday and was granted bail.

 

As part of his bail conditions he cannot be within 250 metres of his wife and cannot carry weapons, and was given ten days to get his possessions out of his home.

 

Court documents state the alleged attacks against Keri's wife took place in July 2018, May 2019, and July 2019.

 

His next court date is Nov. 10, 2019.

 

Five years ago Keri wrote a book about the history of the Montreal Expos baseball team called Up, Up and Away.

 

He frequently writes for The Athletic, but that publication suspended Keri after learning of the charges.

Well that’s disappointing

[Carlos Danger]

Thank you Mr. Anus.

 

His wife is not the first thing he has assaulted. He assaults journalism and analysis every-time he writes a column.. Horrible baseball takes and analysis..

He is the same guy advocating we signed a bunch of veteran FAs this off season and then again, well into May.. Just one tidbit I recall.

I’m not really seeing the issue.

I’m not really seeing the issue.

 

I said I think he has horrible baseball analysis and takes/strategies etc on the Jays. No issue except I think he is a crappy writer, and now appears to be a crappy husband..

Well, that didn't age well.

I meant with him suggesting that the jays sign a few vets. I haven’t really watched a game since May, but presumably they’re still putrid enough that there was room for a Moustakas, Brantley or Keuchel.

Allegedly

It happened in Montreal. They like the French and try to emulate them so much, guilty until proven innocent.

[Spanky__99]

Stupid French...

[Barkerfan23]

Poor kids

[King]

What a loser.

[P2F]

If true, f*** this guy. This is really disappointing.

[tbad]

s*** happens

[saskjayfan]

looks like this was wife number 2. 3 assault charges from 3 separate incidents. They were married in July of 18 and the first incident was July of 18....so much for the honeymoon phase.

What? So he assaulted her on their honeymoon, just after they were married? The article says he now has to vacate the house within 10 days. Fastest divorce ever?

[Todd Van Anus]

Thank you Mr. Anus.

You're welcome Mr. Danger.

Well, that didn't age well.

 

Well, he did say he wasn't a big fan of domestic abuse. Maybe he was just a small fan of it. He didn't really lie.

Unfun fact: I've been in 4 serious relationships and have been physically assaulted in 4.

That sucks balls. I have been as well, but only really noticed in retrospect 'cause I'm physically much bigger than every girl I've dated so it doesn't seem really bad 'cause it doesn't actually hurt that much, but it's pretty f***ed up to have a girlfriend repeatedly punch you and s***.

[L54]

I bet any money Jonah Keri is the kind of guy who hates Donald Trump because he grabs em by the pussy

 

So instead let’s smack em around. Right in the face! Goodbye to your career you hypocrite

How do you know his gender

[Laika]

 

Pretty sure it will be the former

If you re-read what I said, you'll find that I did nothing of the sort.
