FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
June 5, 2000

 

Statement from Ravens Owner Art Modell on Ray Lewis:

"From the beginning of this tough situation for all involved, we believed in and supported Ray Lewis. We also believe in the court system and the due process that found Ray to be innocent of the very serious charges. He can now get on with his life, including his work with the Ravens.

"As I said at Ray's bond hearing in February, Ray is a good young man. Even during these difficult past four months, he has made the effort to help his family, his teammates, and others who rely on his good will and generosity.

"It will be great to see Ray back in our facilities and on the field soon."
