While NFL free agency is dominating the news cycle in sports, things are getting real for former safety Darren Sharper. He recently turned himself in to be charged in Louisiana on rape charges, and today things got even worse as the Associated Press is reporting that Sharper has been charged in Arizona as well.

The AP states that the charges in Arizona for Sharper are for sexual assault and administering a dangerous drug.

"Former NFL All-Pro safety Darren Sharper was indicted in Arizona on charges of sexual assault and administering dangerous drugs, authorities said Wednesday.It was the latest development in several ongoing sexual assault investigations involving the 38-year-old Sharper in Louisiana, California, Florida, Arizona and Nevada."

Sharper is wanted in multiple states for basically the same thing, which really doesn’t help his case in any of the instances. The charges against him are serious and it sounds like there’s an increasing possibility that the former Saints, Packers and Vikings safety will spend the rest of his life in prison.

That’s the ultimate end game for those pursuing charges against Sharper, and his string of similar charges in completely different states only highlights the horrific decisions he’s made recently and the damage he’s done.
