This does not look good.
According to a report by Keith Sargeant with NJ.com, former Rutgers linebacker Izaia Bullock was arrested on domestic violence charges Monday. If that name sounds familiar it is because he is the same person who was arrested last October on charges of attempted murder.
The charges listed in the report actually predate the attempted murder charges. Sargeant pointed out that Bullock was at a status conference Monday when it was realized there was a warrant out for his arrest:
During a status conference Monday before Judge Pedro Jimenez, it was revealed that Bullock had a warrant on a domestic violence charge. He was handcuffed by Middlesex County sheriff’s officers after the hearing, and Jimenez said Bullock would be released after getting processed and would be required to appear before Hudson County judge on Tuesday.

Bullock is still awaiting trial and is charged with two counts of attempted murder in the first degree, two counts of conspiracy to commit murder in the first degree, and one count of cyber harassment in the fourth degree. It is alleged that he initiated a plot to have the family members of an acquaintance murdered. He has pled not guilty to those charges.
