April 25, 20196 yr KCTV5 obtains recording of Tyreek Hill and Crystal Espinal discussing their son’s broken arm Audio in link provided. Quote FAIRWAY, KS (KCTV) - KCTV5’s investigative department was sent a recording of Tyreek Hill and his fiancé discussing the police investigation and what they are telling police. The recording is believed to have been made in early March when the parents were walking through Dubai’s international airport. KCTV5 was told the recording was an “insurance policy” for Crystal Espinal. Espinal sent it to at least one friend for safekeeping because she didn’t feel she could keep a recording on her phone. It has since been shared and sent to us by someone who is concerned about the welfare of the couple’s child. The audio is 11 minutes long and abruptly cuts off. At no time on the recording does Hill admit to breaking his son’s arm. In fact, he flatly denies it. Espinal also argues back that she has been covering for Hill with investigators. Both parents accuse each other of troubling behavior. KCTV5 shared the entire raw audio with Johnson County prosecutor Steve Howe and asked for a response. He is currently reviewing the audio. Howe held a press conference on Wednesday saying he believes a crime was committed before noting he doesn’t know who to charge. KCTV5 has also reached out to both parents and their legal teams for comment. Sources confirm to KCTV5 that both parents have lost custody as a result of the separate Child Protective Services investigation through the Kansas Department of Children and Families or DCF. Espinal originally retained custody but a judge eventually removed the boy from her care during an emergency hearing on April 5. Another hearing was held on April 17. Neither parent was granted custody. During his news conference, Howe emphasized the child is currently safe and his office and CPS will utilize other legal options to ensure he remains safe. The KCTV5 News investigative department has learned the young boy is currently living with a family he is familiar with, but they are not relatives. Espinal is allowed supervised visits and has been posting pictures on social media of herself and her son together. https://www.kctv5.com/news/investigations/kctv-obtains-recording-of-tyreek-hill-and-crystal-espinal-discussing/article_16991194-67ad-11e9-98f9-c7214b78938f.html?fbclid=IwAR1B9QHuSKK1UpKJhHhl_tgFagQl7b5__VnDR2c0gbrIesV40-UXCzTbPlo
April 25, 20196 yr Author KCTV5 News in Kansas City, Missouri, obtained audio in which Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill and his fiancee, Crystal Espinal, discuss the broken arm of their three-year-old son. In the audio, Espinal told Hill their son had said, "Daddy did it," per the Kansas City Star's Brooke Pryor. According to The Athletic's Nate Taylor, Espinal also said Hill would punch their son in the arm and use a belt as forms of discipline. When Espinal told Hill their son is "terrified" of him, he reportedly replied, ‘You need to be terrified of me, too, b---h,’ per Taylor. The district attorney's office in Johnson County, Kansas, announced Wednesday it wasn't planning to file charges against Hill or Espinal. Authorities had opened an investigation into possible battery and possible child abuse or neglect at Hill's home. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2833191-crystal-espinal-says-tyreek-hill-used-a-belt-and-punched-son-in-audio-recording
April 26, 20196 yr It was a hell of a run, kansas city chiefs. Good thing the nfl draft has only seen 1 go so far
April 26, 20196 yr Next time you think your job sucks imagine being the Head of Public Relations for the Chiefs. Good thing they traded for Frank Clark last week.
April 26, 20196 yr Pisses me off to read. That fucker is a bad human being. From a football perspective, losing the talents of Tyreek Hill and Kareem Hunt from the Chiefs is going to hurt them big time from an offense that was scary good last year. There are more important things than football. Tyreek should be banned for life from the NFL Edited April 26, 20196 yr by Iconoclast Texan
April 26, 20196 yr I can only imagine by looking at Hill that he speaks like a ghetto ass tard so no way I can listen to 11 minutes of that
April 26, 20196 yr I know nothing of the situation and have read both articles. I still know nothing....
April 26, 20196 yr They played the audio on the horn this morning. Holy shit both of them should be in jail.
April 26, 20196 yr Meh, rookies.... psychological terror is much more effective, and the bruises don't show.....

Just as I’m sure they had no idea Tyreek Hill was kicked out of Okie State for assaulting his pregnant girlfriend when they drafted him. But she married him, so it was okay. [sarcasm]

No fucking bullshit like "everyone makes mistakes and deserves a second chance," excuse to justify keeping a talent like that.

Smart move to stay with him Do u even NFL minimum salary, bro?
April 26, 20196 yr Is it normal for ESPN to list a college other than where they ended their college career? After Gundy booted him he played a year at West Alabama. Isn't a player's "college" usually listed as where they ended their college career?

April 26, 20196 yr As much as I love Hill as a player, he appears to be a shitty human being. He needs to be banned.

TO was a shitty human being but ultimately harmless. Physically abusing women and children is another thing altogether, and a no brainer. Ban his ass.

April 26, 20196 yr 37 minutes ago, longhornmatt said: “The Chiefs will evaluate this information and make the right decision regarding Tyreek Hill” is the official response in a statement prepared by Kansas City Chiefs VP of Public Relations and Social Media Outreach, Ms. Casey Anthony. She seems like a really poor choice considering her history

God dammit.
April 26, 20196 yr my god he is a fucking piece of shit. someone just off him and make the world a better place.
April 26, 20196 yr I have no words. It's all fucked up, but this was the risk in drafting him. We gotta draft more skill players that doesn't assault everyone in sight.

April 26, 20196 yr People keep mentioning Jerry Jones, but when was the last time he took a chance on a true scumbag? Greg Hardy? Tank Johnson? It seems the Chiefs have been much bolder than the Cowboys, and it's not even close.
April 26, 20196 yr F this pile of dog shit. He will likely re-sign in 2 years and make millions while deserving to have his D smashed repeatedly with a sledge and a pineapple shoved up his A backwards.

As someone that grew up under the fists of a fuckstick father, your comment does display an ignorance of the terror that some of your neighbors are enduring at this very moment. Maybe you'd like to tell them it would have been worse in the 17th Century. I'm sure that will help alleviate the physical and psychological trauma they've endured during this "golden age". And thanks for proving my point.
April 26, 20196 yr I can’t imagine what a three year old kid would do so badly that he would require a “whoopen” or the “belt to be brought out” to beat him. It’s just awful for that kid to have to go through that.
