Saw this on Twitter and didn't know if anyone on here had any idea what this was referencing?

I hope what I’m hearing about a young man on the wrestling team isn’t true. And don’t ask I’m not going to release any details or names.

Reports are that Echemendia has been charged with felonious assault. For his sake, I hope it's not true.

Unfortunately, it is true.

This has to crush Tom Ryan. Echemendia appears to be a personal favorite of his.

If the allegations are true, Echemendia has to go.

Just a terribly sad story all around. There's really nothing else to say on the matter.

I was wondering what was going on with him, as he won his first two matches at MSU last weekend, but had a MFF the next match. On instagram he has a video of his brother from Cuba arriving at the airport last week, and him there to meet him. Looking at his Twitter/Instagram posts he appeared to be madly in love with his new wife??? I guess we will all see how this plays out.

In the meantime, the program will take a media beating as news outlets love to print the headline "Ohio State wrestler arrested for assault".

Just to be clear, I have no patience for what he's done. Clearly, he has issues and I hope his wife is ok. But I don't like the salacious nature of how this story is being publicized.

Agreed Hank. It certainly doesn't look good but I'll wait until it plays out to pass judgement on him.

FWIW, his wife appears to be at least partially refuting the allegations.

See, e.g., - https://twitter.com/lilyechemendia/status/1458588835517014021

What's unclear from her statement is if the only allegedly incorrect information is whether or not she personally called the police, as opposed to whether or not the hitting/choking actually took place.

Evidently she's ok which is the most important thing. But women in abusive relationships often normalize the behavior of the abuser. I don't know if that's the case. Just offering some general context.
