Brandon Castillo- a world in pictures

Ray Rice hits former fiancée in hotel elevator.
This picture came out last week, targeting Ray Rice and possibly destroying his career as a NFL running back. Ray Rice was on top of the world, two years removed Super Bowl Champion, signing a new multimillion dollar contract earlier this year. Ray Rice would have started for the Baltimore Ravens and played throughout the season. But then, in March, 2014, a video of Ray Rice dragging his then-fiancée out of the elevator. He got suspended for two games for this season as he has been a class-act throughout his life- lots of community service and no a blemish on his tract. But, the NFL would come under scrutiny by Women's Rights Activists saying that he should've been suspended longer. Then this picture came. A picture of him actually hitting his fiancée in the elevator changed the view on Ray Rice and he was cut by his sponsors and his team. The pictures and videos from TMZ would go viral. These would change the views of many of Ray Rice and the NFL; it showed their character and values as a person and as an organization. They put a lot into winning and money. It was a sad day for Ray Rice fans, NFL fans, altruistic people.
