: This is some CRAZY ISH . . . but NBA player JAVARIS CRITTENDON - who is most famous for being the dude who pulled A GUN on Gilbert Arenas - is wanted for MURDER.
Javaris, who played on Memphis, The Lakers and The Wizards, allegedly did a drive by and SHOT an innocent woman and KILLED HER. All because he was trying to shoot some goons who robbed him.
Here is how the Atlanta Journal Constitution is reporting it:
“It appears Mr. Crittenton observed who he thought was the perpetrator walking down the street," Major Keith Meadows told the AJC. "It so happens Miss Jones was walking down the street at the same time."This dude is a MONSTER. If anyone knows of his whereaboute PLEASE contact the authorities. Think about that poor innocent woman . . . and her children!!!Jones was walking with others near her Macon Drive home in southwest Atlanta around 10 p.m. Aug. 19 when she was shot, police said. Several witnesses told police the shots were fired from a black Chevrolet Tahoe.
Jones was struck in the leg and later died during surgery. Two men walking with Jones fled and were not injured, and investigators now believe one of those men was the intended target.
Investigators believe Crittenton may have been seeking retaliation after being robbed of his jewelry April 21, Meadows said. Crittenton reported that crime to police.

ATLANTA -- Javaris Crittenton, the former NBA player once suspended by the league for bringing a gun into the Washington Wizards' locker room, has been charged with murder in the *** of a woman on an Atlanta street.
Police spokesman Carlos Campos said Friday *** that police have secured a murder warrant for the arrest of Crittenton in connection with the *** death of 22-year-old Jullian Jones on Aug. 19. Campos said Crittenton, a former Georgia Tech player, isn't in custody and is wanted.
Crittenton
Atlanta police Maj. Keith Meadows told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution on Friday *** that Crittenton is believed to be in the Los Angeles area. He said the FBI is involved in the investigation.
Jones, a mother of four, was walking with a group of people on the city's southwest side when she was *** by someone inside a dark-colored SUV, police said.
Investigators say they don't believe the woman was the intended target. Campos said the motive appears to be retaliation for a robbery in April, in which Crittenton was a victim.
A source with knowledge of the investigation told Outside the Lines' John Barr that Crittenton had jewelry stolen in April and confirmed the *** was in retaliation for that robbery.
Police were able to identify an SUV at the murder scene, a truck that Crittenton had rented for a family member, the source said.
As of Thursday, the family member for whom Crittenton rented the SUV was the prime suspect in the ***, but late Thursday police received new information that helped them identify Crittenton as the triggerman, according to the source.
The source confirmed that the victim, Jullian Jones, was not the intended target.
"He planned to *** the person who robbed him and missed," the source said.
Messages left for an agent who has represented Crittenton weren't immediately returned to The Associated Press on Friday ***.
Crittenton most recently played in the NBA with Washington in the 2008-09 season, then -- while sidelined by an ankle injury that kept him out of action the entire next season -- was involved in the locker-room gun confrontation with teammate Gilbert Arenas.
Crittenton was suspended for the final 38 games of the 2009-10 season by the NBA after he and Arenas acknowledged bringing guns into the locker room. Two days after a dispute stemming from a card game on a team flight, Arenas brought four guns to the locker room and set them in front of Crittenton's locker with a sign telling him to "PICK 1." Crittenton then took out his own gun.
Crittenton pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor gun charge on Jan. 25, 2010, and received probation.
After the Wizards declined to re-sign him, he signed a non-guaranteed contract with Charlotte before last season. The Bobcats waived him Oct. 15, and he then played five games in China for the Zhejiang Guangsha Lions, averaging 25.8 points. He also played 20 games for the NBDL's Dakota Wizards, averaging 14.3 points.
Crittenton was drafted 19th overall by the Los Angeles Lakers in 2007. He played little with Los Angeles and was traded to Memphis in his rookie year, then to Washington in December 2008.
Crittenton averaged 5.3 points and 1.8 assists in 113 NBA games.

NOTICE the word ALLEGEDLY in this post. First of all, if these dudes robbed him, they likely rob plenty of people and have plenty of enemies so im sure there are a number of ppl who could have tried to *** them and accidently *** the woman.
It is unfortunate that this woman lost her life, but he is innocent, until proven guilty. He was the victim of a robbery and he reported it to police. THis detail alone does NOT make him a murderer.
Sean taylor was *** in the leg and died, remember..there's an artery in the leg that is connected to the heart so if you get *** in the leg is probably the third worst place from the heart and the head.
But why was she walking with thugs anyway??? I knew a few thugs back in the day but I got smart and realized you can't role with them dudes like that.
Well if she knew these goons robbed him, she should of turned their azz in, maybe she would be alive today. Since people are doing the no snitch BS, karma will get u. As for this dude, he need help, seriously! I am not sure what his fascination is with guns, but where he going, he will never *** on there...LOL! I never knew my race of people were stupid, bad and evil. SMDH We must do better.
YEA ITS SAD THE LADY GOT CAUGHT UP IN THAT *** BUT HOW IS HE A MONSTER AND A PIG FOR TRYNA GET SOMEBODY BACK FOR ROBBING HIM HALF THE TIME THE SO CALLED "LAW" DONT DO *** SO I DONT BLAME HIM HE DIDNT TRY TO KILL HER IT WAS A ACCIDENT HE WAS TRYNA GET SOMEBODY ELSE THE SAME PEOPLE CALLING HIM A PIG AND MONSTER WOULD BE THE SAMEE PEOPLE WHO GET ROBBED AND KNOW WHO IT IS THEN SEE THE PERSON AND DONT DO NOTHING.....R.I.P THE YOUNG LADY THAT GOT KILLED THO
@butch31, that's real. No one should be a crime victim, but come on. If she knew the type and caliber of men they were, she should have never been hanging with them. Hanging with some of these thuggish criminal losers is nothing but a recipe for trouble. *** dont have eyes and if someone *** at them for some grimy stuff they did, you could be the one to catch the ***.
Huh!!! Someone said why didn't he hire a nobody from the neighborhood to do it? Another said how do you die from a *** wound to the leg? I say *** if you just don't know then you're just clueless as hell and more of us need to pick up educational reading material other than "Zane". NBA star Javaris really wanted to be a tough guy in life it turns out, but someone should have told him they're all dead or in jail.
....MTO---LOL--- I have yet to meet an innocent woman with four children.
However, on a more serious note----If this *** was the result of retaliation from a past robbery, then I am wholeheartedly in approval. All men have the right afforded them by Natural-Law to locate and execute those whom have perpetrated against him.
When one undertakes robbery as a profession, one must also undertake the strong possibility of being killed for one's felonious activities.
The only mistake that was made in this attempt at retribution was that the robbers in question were not isolated and/or captured, and then unceremoniously executed, eliminating any risk of innocent casualties.
Simply stated--- the more muggers and robbers that are executed, the less muggers and robbers will be left to harm you and yours.
The police cannot secure the streets alone. Vigilantism, if practiced correctly, can be a remarkable tool in ridding the streets of those whom pose nothing positive to society, yet are burdens onto it.
For example----The extensive every day killings that seem to permeate the streets in Mexico by the drug cartels, would not exist if the good citizens of Mexico were allowed to own firearms. This is just one example of how the police cannot bring order to our American streets alone.
The good citizens of this country, America, must insure safety for themselves, and if it means the permanent dispatch of those that bring misery and death to our communities, then so be it.
Every neighborhood in America has troublemakers, and the worse the neighborhood the more depraved the troublemakers---and every decent inhabitant within these neighborhoods knows whom the troublemakers are.
In other words, every neighborhoods has its human rodents, and every person within that neighborhood knows the identity of these particular human rodents.
What does one do when rats infiltrate one's home?---One locates where they nest, and one terminates them all. The result is no more rats in the home and/or immediate surroundings---and the world by and large is a much better place for doing so.
In conclusion---My condolences towards Miss. Jones, and her family for their great loss.
Not withstanding, is my apology extended for the attempted executions of the two thugs that accompanied her, for they are the ones that should no longer be amongst the living....Artofwar
hope he's caught soon, if he doesn't kill himelf in the interim, which, sad to say, would probably be the best for him, seeing that his life is dead anyway. unbelieveable. killed a mother of 4 trying to get at some people that robbed him. i mean really, how ignorant is this fool? well, good luck in the pen, if you ever make it there
I'll never believe you MTO. She didn't seem so innocent in all this, being that she was with two culprits in which one was initially the intended target for a crime they did. Lets not be blinded by the constant attempts from media outlets to derive at general lie in order to mislead the public and this is the case right now. She was at the wrong place at the wrong time. So sad & she *** have died but the NBA player *** be blamed for this. If anything, they should be looking for those two guys with her because obviously every action causes a reaction. Don't jump to conclusions ppl!
I find it rather interesting that we are encourage not to JUDGE the accused BUT some are JUDGING the woman that was KILLED! The article that I posted stated that she was walking with a GROUP of people there's NO proof that she knew that someone was gunning for anyone(my mind's eye would tell me to stay away from KNOWN goons). IF one of the MEN were her children's FATHER then I'd say she MAY have been aware of his/their ILLEGAL activity(at this point NOBODY knows). I do know that GUN play isn't UNFAMILIAR to this MAN. Also he rented a DARK SUV for a family member and that very vehilce is BELIEVED to be the SUV involved in this ***! IF he is INNOCENT then why doesn't he CLEAR his name as well as RELIEVE this family(good, bad or indifferent) that's grieving.
