LAS VEGAS -- A Nevada judge sentenced former NFL star Darren Sharper on Thursday to as many as eight years in prison for attempted sexual assault in Las Vegas as part of a four-state plea deal that could keep him behind bars for nearly two decades.Sharper was ordered to serve the Nevada sentence concurrently with an 18-year sentence he has already begun on state and federal charges in Louisiana.The former All-Pro defensive back is appealing the conviction and sentence in Louisiana after previously pleading guilty to drug and sexual assault charges.The Nevada charges stemmed from a 2014 incident in Las Vegas where two women said Sharper drugged them after they met him at a nightclub.Civil rights lawyer Gloria Allred spoke in court on behalf of one of the victims before Clark County District Judge Michelle Leavitt sentenced Sharper to 38 to 96 months in prison and ordered him to register as a sex offender in Nevada.Writing this statement brings me to tears even though its been so long, Allred read from the womans statement. I have been fighting for almost three years and to not get the opportunity for my voice to be heard in person makes me sick.Allred said the woman could not attend because she would have had to travel a long way and several continuances made the timing of the sentencing uncertain.During a 14-year NFL career, Sharper played in Super Bowls with the Green Bay Packers and New Orleans Saints. He retired in 2011 and was working as a broadcast NFL analyst when allegations surfaced that he had drugged and raped women.Sharper pleaded guilty or no-contest in state and federal courts to charges that he drugged and sexually assaulted women in Arizona, California, Nevada and Louisiana. The four-state deal was initially expected to send Sharper to prison for about nine years.However, U.S. District Judge Jane Triche Milazzo in Louisiana rejected that sentence as too light.Two other men were sentenced earlier this month after pleading guilty in state and federal courts in the Louisiana case, which involved women being assaulted in 2013.Brandon Licciardi, a former Louisiana sheriffs deputy, was sentenced to 17 years in federal prison, and Erik Nunez, a former restaurant worker, was sentenced to 10 years. china jerseys .

After a year of qualifiers there will be an unprecedented 12 British boxers at the Rio Olympics.In London, the British boxers topped the medal table, beating the angry Cubans and the scheming Russians. The Kazakhs and Uzbeks could only look at the five medal haul from our slim team of 10 and shake their heads in envy.Every single one of the 12 qualified boxers has fought over five times in qualifiers, and some had as many as 12 fights to make the plane to Rio. This is a team selected, shaped and made through seemingly relentless qualification heartbreak. There is not one weak link, not one shock or inexperienced lucky member.The only missing member is Chantelle Cameron, the solid choice at 60 kilograms, and she has a tale or two to tell about bad decisions and an awful draw at the two qualifiers she went to. The final qualification -- a mercenary mix potentially involving every boxer on the planet -- starts in Venezuela this weekend and thankfully not one GB male boxer will have to make the perilous journey to compete in what will be a madhouse event.Qualification for the Olympic boxing tournament was introduced in 1992 and seven boxers reached Barcelona after a series of gruelling events. Robin Reid returned with a bronze, the only medal. Four years earlier the GB selectors, who resembled a gang of cattle traders, picked eight for Seoul hoping they would not all get stopped or knocked out. At the time GB boxers were an easy touch, like an English football team. Richie Woodhall returned with the solitary medal. The boxing world laughed at us.The qualification for Atlanta in 1996 was brutal and over 20 British boxers went to the various tournaments. In the end just David Burke made it, but he was joined by Fola Okesola, who was given the place when the Danish authorities withdrew their man because he was rubbish. Burke and Okesola lost their first fights and GB boxing was in crisis. I was in Atlanta and there was genuine despair.dddddddddddd.The disaster of Sydney qualification, where just two scraped across the line, was softened by Audley Harrisons ridiculous win against all odds at super-heavyweight. It was the first GB gold since Chris Finnegan in 1968. The truth is that in 2000 the GB boxers still lacked the depth and the mental toughness to succeed against the Cubans and Russians. Big Aud was, lest we forget, all about the mind.The reality behind the celebrations in Athens in 2004 is even harder to accept than the failings in Sydney four years later. The Harrison win had increased the funding but in 2004 over 25 British boxers tried and failed to make Athens. Just one, the 17-year-old Amir Khan made it and he won a silver.There were a lot of big names in the 2004 qualification events and it was the same in 2008, where finally an edge surfaced and eight top fighters made it, delivering one gold and two bronze medals. The success continued, the team started winning gold medals at European championships and reached the finals at the World championship. In the Seventies and Eighties British boxers were often not sent to the either the World or the European championships for fear of being savagely embarrassed. Every single one of the 12 boxers on their way to Rio is a veteran of two or more major tournaments and some, such as Nicola Adams, have been at six or seven.The team for Rio is hard, hardened and hungry. It feels like it has been a decade since both the lower league and the top league nations walked over us. It seems inconceivable that anybody other than a medal winner will beat a British boxer in Rio. It is not about the numbers, not about getting experience for some fantasy time in the future -- this is a team on the way to Rio to compete. ' ' '
