DA Dismisses Case Against Merriman

District Attorney Bonnie Dumanis made the following statement on Friday: "After a thorough review of the investigation into the Sept. 6, 2009 incident at the Poway home of Shawne Merriman, our office has determined there is insufficient evidence to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that any crime was committed," Dumanis said in a statement. "This case is now closed. No further comment will be made."

Multiple sources had provided 10News in San Diego with new details about what led to the incident last Sunday involving San Diego Chargers star Shawne Merriman and reality TV star Tila Tequila at the linebacker's Poway home.

Sources close to the story related that Tequila -- also known as Tila Nguyen -- was unhappy that she was not the only woman getting attention from Merriman, and jealousy played a role in the early morning altercation.

The sources said that witnesses at Merriman's home said the three-time Pro Bowl linebacker went to his bedroom with two women.

Tequila walked into the room and Merriman asked her to join them. However, the sources said Tequila reacted angrily and threatened to have sex with a member of Merriman's entourage.

According to sources, Tequila was intoxicated, and she got buck-ass naked and attempted to leave the house. That's when Merriman, 25, tried to stop the 27-year-old Tequila, and that is when she called 911.

On Wednesday, the San Diego County Sheriff's Department handed over its findings in the case to the District Attorney's office.

Tila through her lawyer communicates that she, "Will immediately begin pursuing civil charges against Mr. Merriman and she will have her day in court."

Dirk, you are NOT the Father!

Dallas Mavericks forward Dirk Nowitzki was informed Friday that his former fiancée, who was recently sentenced to five years in prison for a probation violation in Missouri, is not pregnant as she has maintained for months. Taylor went by the name of "Crissy Travino" to Now(nit-wit)zki with Taylor claiming to be of Brazilian heritage.

The 38-year-old Taylor was taken into custody in mid-May while the Mavericks flew back from Denver after a Game 2 loss to the Nuggets in a NBA second-round series Dallas eventually lost 4-1. A private investigation into Taylor's past, as part of a prenuptial agreement urged by Nowitzki's advisers, revealed outstanding arrest warrants for Taylor in two states and her reported use of more than 20 aliases. At the time of her arrest she claimed to be pregnant and Nowitzki the father.

Nowitzki was reported to been seen accidentally putting his head through an 8-foot ceiling when jumping upon hearing the news in South Africa where he is participating in the NBA's Basketball Without Borders Program.
