A member of the 1986 national champion men’s basketball team from Louisville has been arrested and charged with strangulation.
A Louisville Metro Police arrest citation says that Robbie Valentine, who is 59 years old, choked his girlfriend during a fight at their home. He went to court for the first time on Friday morning and said he was not guilty.
In the arrest citation, police wrote that Valentine’s girlfriend talked about leaving while the two of them were having dinner Thursday night. The citation said that when they got home, they got into a fight, and Valentine took his girlfriend’s phone and “dumped her purse out in the sink.”
“Later, (Valentine) threw her off the bed and started strangling her,” says the quote. “The victim’s neck is sore and red on the sides, and the back of her neck is bruised.” The report said that alcohol played a role in the incident.
There was a sudden surge of interest in him after his arrest. His private life suddenly became a matter of discussion among the public. We’ll discuss his career and his wife in depth here.
Valentine isn’t married to anyone right now because he hasn’t shared any photos of his partner on any of his social media accounts. But he seems to have been in a relationship before and has kids with that person. His social media say that he has twin sons and a daughter.
Earlier Valentine shared a few pictures of his children when they got their degrees and some other occasions. He tweeted on May 12, 2015, “Congratulations, Aaron Valentine, on getting your college degree from Indiana University. I’m so proud of you, son.” He also keeps posting pictures of his grandsons and granddaughters on his social media accounts.
