The death of Kansas City Chief Jovan Belcher and his girlfriend was horrible to hear about.   What’s even worse is that alcohol appears to have played a role in both of their deaths.  This might be a message to young people that messing around with this stuff can cause you to make very bad decisions that hurt you for the rest of your life.

According to a report from the Kansas City Star, former Chiefs linebacker Jovan Belcher was legally drunk when he killed his girlfriend before taking his own life on Dec. 1, an autopsy showed.

Belcher shot himself at the Chiefs practice facility about five hours after he was found sleeping in his Bentley by police while parked in front of his mistress’s apartment.
