CBS has reported that Wheeler has been charged with first-degree domestic assault and unlawful imprisonment. Both charges are felonies. He was also charged with resisting arrest.
Wheeler’s case isn’t a one-off–for him, in sports, and in society at large.
No one, athlete or not, should ever engage in domestic assault. Report incidents to the Domestic Abuse Hotline at 1-800-799-7233 or contact your local police.

About Kadin McElwain
I was born in Kingston, New York, the second child of Monika Keiper and Matthew McElwain. At age two, I was diagnosed with autism, and I’m currently undergoing therapy to help me have a good life. I have multiple interests, including music and writing. I started writing seriously at the age of 13 by writing poems on Allpoetry.com, earning a nomination for Best Teen Poet. In high school, I went on to write scripts, articles, and stories. Now in college, my ultimate goal is to make the world a better place.
