The Facts: On Thursday, Rice was indicted for aggravated assault of his fiancee. On Friday, he married her. According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, Janay Palmer and Rice exchanged vows Fruday night, in a ceremony that had been scheduled for weeks.

Diehards Line: As PFT's Mike Florio put it, "The conscious coupling could insulate Palmer from having to testify against the man who allegedly rendered her unconscious. ..." Not that it will matter. Since the incident happened in a casino, chances are that the only evidence needed will be the videotape of the alleged punch that knocked her out. The video reportedly exists and it will go a long way toward proving beyond a reasonable doubt that assault was committed, regardless of whether Palmer takes the stand. Rice faces three to five years in prison on the felony charge. In the wake of his indictment, the Ravens have expressed support for the veteran running back.
