Jets CB Antonio Cromartie’s various “baby mama drama” struggles have been well documented. This latest story involves his wife Terricka and an alleged attempt to get back at a cheating husband.
According to the New York Post, last May Terricka allegedly faked a suicide attempt while Cro was hanging out in Miami and she was home 7 month pregnant with their son because she believed he was cheating on her.
“God forgive me, I don’t want to die. What have I done?” and “I cut my wrists. I took those pills.”
Cromartie, who was in Miami, frantically called the Randolph Township, NJ, police at 2:43 a.m.
“There’s a problem at my house. She’s bleeding. She cut her wrists,” he told the dispatcher.
When no one answered the bell or phone at 21 Fairfield Ave., cops broke down two doors with an ax and sledgehammer, ran upstairs and found Terricka in bed with her two daughters.
Not a drop of blood in sight.
Terricka confessed she had faked the suicide try because she thought Cromartie — who has 10 kids, including eight with seven other women — was “cheating on her.”
“She stated that she had no intention of going through with the act,” says a police report on the May 6, 2011 incident. “She said she was exercising her First Amendment right to free speech and could say whatever she wanted.”
The jealous wife also admitted sending text messages “to the woman she believes is romantically involved with her husband.”
She apparently tried to scare off her would-be rival, “telling her that both she [Terricka] and her husband have [word redacted] even though they do not,” the report says.
Officers told Terricka she had to undergo a psychiatric evaluation at a local hospital. Terricka objected, saying that a paid driver was coming to take to her to the airport to go to Miami, and that she would be in her sister’s wedding that weekend.
But cops insisted she was “in need of involuntary commitment.” She became “belligerent, uncooperative, irrational and argumentative.”
She said she had no one to watch her kids, but finally agreed to be hauled off. The state’s child-protection agency took temporary care of her daughters, one from a prior relationship and one with Cromartie.
As you sit reading with your mouth slightly open, consider the fact that although neither Antonio nor Terricka have publicly commented on this incident, Terricka did tweet on Sunday after news of the story broke that “the devil was busy” and to “believe none of what you hear and half of what you see.”
Obviously you hope in something like this that there’s an error somewhere. That someone got something wrong. I can be sympathetic to a 7-month pregnant woman being home with a toddler and feeling that her man might be chilling with chick 2B. I can understand blowing up his phone or sending a bunch of profanity laced texts. But, playing suicide games… I would imagine having to be locked up in the psych ward for evaluation isn’t worth it. Keep that family in your prayers.
