San Francisco 49ers linebacker Reuben Foster appeared in court on Tuesday, pleading not guilty to the three felonies he faces for his February arrest. There is an evidentiary hearing on Friday (which could be cancelled if certain evidence is provided before then), and then a preliminary hearing set for Thursday, May 17th.
Foster was formally charged in April, but since then, the accuser has recanted her statement. She said that her injuries were caused in a fight prior to her interaction with Foster. She provided the DA’s office with a video she says proves this, but after review the prosecutor has continued with the case.
