More Details on Walker

Posted Tue Jun 17th by

Javon Walker

After Javon Walker‘s weekend of partying and subsequent days of hospitalization, details are beginning to surface regarding the events that led to his fractured orbital bone and related robbery.

Walker has estimated that he lost around $103,000 in cash and jewelry after he was grabbed and forced into a car, then beaten and robbed. He was carrying $3,000 in cash and over $100,000 in jewelry (check out his watch in the photo – click to enlarge).

Reports indicate that the extent of Walker’s injuries include a moderate concussion and significant facial injuries.  It has already been reported that Walker suffered a fractured orbital bone.

Some had wondered why Javon Walker was found lying in this seemingly nondescript intersection. Piecing the story together, it seems that after Javon’s assailants were through with him, they left him unconscious in this area and drove off, likely blocks or even miles away from where Walker was first grabbed.

Walker has been unable to give an official statement to this point, only briefly talking to police, and says he’s still quite confused about what happened.  The police hope to interview him more extensively today.

Walking around Las Vegas with over $100k – most of it visible – is just plain dumb.  Everyone knows better.  I’m sure Javon knows better.  I’m not saying he deserved it, no one does, but there were a million different things he could have done to prevent this (lower profile, not being found alone, etc.).  He’s paying for his mistake in spades.  I feel sorry for the guy, and hope he has a speedy recovery.

    Heh, yea. Anyone with $100K in jewelry should be paying $5K for a bodyguard.

    It’s Vegas. It’s the bling capital of the world. I dunno.

    Javon is a schmuck, but he’s got the worst damned luck. I don’t like the guy, but I pity him.

    Will be interesting to see, for sheer soap opera value, how he reacts to this. And that really depends on whether or not he provoked it.

    If he did, he’s trash and on the path to — yes — a bust.

    If he didn’t, he’s a victim. Will he feel sorry for himself, take it as a sign from the powers of the universe to straighten up, or go into full “I’m gonna conquer the world you bastards!” mode?

    Walker is clearly lying. There is no way that a bunch of thugs walked through a hotel armed with guns, miraculously found Walkers room, robbed him, then dragged his unconscious body through the armada of hotel video cameras only to dump him on the street.

    Let’s give him the benefit of the doubt for a moment and assume that due to the trauma and ‘moderate’ concussion that he doesn’t remember exactly what happened. Fine. Say so, then. Don’t fabricate this BS.

    What little credibility he had left is now completely out the window. He’s hiding something, me thinks…
