Former NBA Star Jayson Williams on Suicide Watch
Former NBA player Jayson Williams has been hospitalized and is on a suicide watch after we locked himself in his hotel room early this morning. Williams locked himself inside his Embassy Suites room in New York.
Williams accidentally shot his limo driver back in 2002. He was acquitted but is awaiting a re-trial on charges that he covered up the shooting.
Williams, to say the least, has had a string of bad luck since the shooting in 2002.
He played for St. Johns University in colleg before starring as a pro for the New Jersey Nets.

However, the slanderous and inflammatory character assaults agains Jayson cannot be fully corrected by anyone other than me - his wife. Jayson is an amazing man, whom I love dearly. He is a great father, a caring son and a loyal friend. He is generous to a fault. His charitable works are too many to mention and many are only known by the people he has touched with his kindness. Jayson gives of his time, talent & resources because it makes him feel as good as the recipients. Jayson loves life, he loves people, he loves to laugh and sometimes he cries - but most importantly, Jayson loves God. He is a God-fearing man, and through our trials and tribulations walks closer to God than he ever has before. This is My Jayson Williams.
