Disclaimer: I post inflammatory takes here. I barely read more than the ESPN article. I think that, generally speaking, protests are often ineffective and wastes of time.
What exactly did she do here? She sat out 2 seasons and the Olympics and I guess I'm not sure why? This is a legal matter, in the hands of the court. I don't know what her involvement could have done to help other than maybe financial backing? And if that was the case, couldn't she still have played? I mean, I don't see a judge ready to continue along towards a guilty verdict....then seeing Maya Moore there changing their mind.
At the end of the day, it's her time and decision and I do respect that....but I (ignorantly) don't really know how she helped. If I'm wrong, I would certainly like to know. Anyone?
Inmate backed by WNBA's Moore gains release
WNBA star Maya Moore was among those who greeted Jonathan Irons when he was released from a Missouri correctional facility on Wednesday. Moore put her career on hold while working to get Irons' conviction overturned.
