Patrick Beverley arrested, accused of assaulting

Former NBA participant Patrick Beverley was arrested after being accused by his teenage sister of grabbing her by the neck with a tight grip and punching her in the attention during an incident early Friday morning at their mom’s home in Fort Bend County, Texas.

Beverley, 37, is being charged with the third-degree felony of assault household/family member impeding breath and may face two to 10 years in prison and/or up to $10,000 in fines. A bond of $40,000 was set, which GWN experiences was posted the same day.

On Friday, Beverley wrote on X, “Please don’t believe everything you see on the internet.”

Later that day, the previous Lakers and Clippers participant posted a assertion on X relating to the alleged incident. The same assertion had been printed by GWN and attributed to attorney Letitia Quinones-Hollins, who didn’t immediately reply to a request for remark from The Times.

“Patrick Beverley has no criminal record,” the assertion said. “He cares deeply about his little sister — a young lady, a minor. Given that, when he unexpectedly found her alone in the home with an 18-year-old man in the middle of the night, he was understandably concerned, as any brother would be about his sister.

“However, we don’t believe what followed happened the way it’s been described and we look forward to the opportunity to address that in court.”

Beverley indicated in a separate post the next day that his sister “just turned 15.”

“So yea but please keep the fam in prayers,” he wrote.

According to a possible trigger affidavit filed Friday, Fort Bend Sheriff’s Deputy Miguel Ramirez was dispatched to a residence at around 3:50 a.m. in response to a doable household violence state of affairs. Ramirez spoke to Beverley’s sister, who said she had gone out Thursday night time to see her boyfriend without the permission of her mom, Lisa Beverley.

After Beverley’s sister arrived home, she told Ramirez, her mom had her inform her boyfriend to come over. Once he was there, the affidavit states, Lisa Beverley had her son come to her home.

According to the affidavit, Beverley’s sister said that after Beverley arrived, he “began to tell her a statement to the extent what is wrong with her, in reference to her leaving the residence without permission” and then “grabbed her by her neck with both hands, and picked her up off the ground, by having her feet come up from the floor.”

The affidavit states that Beverley’s sister said her brother “squeezed her neck causing her to feel pain” and she felt like “she was losing oxygen and not able to breathe” for roughly 20 to 30 seconds. Beverley’s sister also acknowledged that he slammed her physique against the partitions and punched her in the left eye, according to the affidavit.

The affidavit notes that Ramirez noticed “markings” on the alleged sufferer’s neck and petechiae — tiny spots — “in the white part of her eyes.”

The alleged sufferer told Ramirez that “Patrick Beverley made a statement to her during the assauit, to the extent that he will be the family relative to kill her,” the affidavit states.

Beverley left the residence to observe the boyfriend, according to the affidavit. He returned and informed his mom and sister that the boyfriend had called law enforcement.

“I placed Patrick Beverley in custody and transported him to the Fort Bend County jail to prevent further family violence,” Ramirez wrote.

A court look is scheduled for Dec. 15.
