About damn time! Sheesh! It’s been 6 years since Sean Taylor was killed when 5 men intended to rob his home. They thought no one was at the house because the Redskins were out of town, but Taylor (out with a knee injury), his wife and daughter were there. Taylor was shot in the groin and killed. I still remember this so clearly. Sean Taylor was so talented — such a senseless death. Hopefully justice will now be served. Details after the jump…

According to David Ovalle of the Miami Herald, the trial of 23-year-old Eric Rivera has commenced, with jury selection starting on Monday. Rivera is accused of pulling the trigger.
Also awaiting trial are Charles Wardlow, 24, Jason Scott Mitchell, 25, and Timothy Brown, 22. Venjah Hunte, 25, has pleaded guilty and may testify against the others.
“It is sometimes said that justice delayed is justice denied,” Taylor family lawyer Richard Sharpstein said. “But in this case, it’s better late than never and justice will be delivered. The Taylor family has full confidence in Judge Murphy and the prosecution team.”
