To clear everything up for everyone on this post Tony Joiner is Earl Joiner. Look up his lee county mug shot under Earl joiner for his aggravated assault and domestic assault charges. And also to answer to a question on wondering if the two kids were his. Yes indeed they were. For any other questions as far as was he a man that would abuse a woman. Yes he would. He may have made himself look perfect to you all or for friends who knew him but behind closed doors he was a monster and will forever remain a monster. I hope he rots in hell for what he did to such a devoted mother to the mother of his kids. do I think he was capable of this. Very much so. But nobody would know this because they weren't there with his supposable significant other as people claim. she was his punching bag. nothing more. he never cared about the precious soul she carried nor did he ever care about the children they both brought into this world together. he didn't care when he left bruises on her or when he gave her a concussion. or when he beat her so bad her ribs were bruised for days. no one has seen that side of him except for his so called significant other. no one heard her beg and plead for him to stop beating her in front of her children. no one was there when he would abandon then home alone for her to have to walk miles to the store with her child in tow for groceries for her to eat. but please if you want to sit there and think all highly of this man because of his football career and be proud that Gainesville produces killers and convicts and what not by all means do so. but understand a loving caring person who would give everything she had to someone who was in deep need even if she didn't know you was killed by a monster. I will never get to see her smile that could light up a dim room again. I can never hear her beautiful laugh. my daughter will never be able to see someone who was like an aunt to her again. I will never see my best friend my sister again. so again tony joiner and earl joiner are the same person since his full name is earl Antonio joiner. "tony".
