Green Bay Packer's Johnny Jolly was suspended indefinitely by Commissioner Roger Goodell for violating the leagues substance abuse policy. This comes in connection with an arrest in 2008 around a Houston night club. The suspension is without pay for this season. Jolly can apply for reinstatement after this season's Super Bowl.
Johnny Jolly Arrested for Codeine
Jolly was pulled over July 8, 2008 outside a Houston night club none for drug and gun activity by police gang task force. He was pulled over for excessive noise coming from his sub woofers, but the police smelled "the strong odor of codeine." The charges were dropped so that lab technicians could have ample time to learn a new piece of equipment that would accurately measure codeine. Jolly was reindicted this past December.
Packer's Jolly's Bond
After a judge found flyers advertising a party he allegedly hosted at a club in Houston, tighter restrictions were placed on his bond. Jolly now has to submit a hair sample for drug testing. He also now has a 6 pm-6 am curfew and is not allowed in any "establishment where drugs or alcohol are used."
