Impossible to ignore:

The 911 tape has also been released, and a large .wav file can be found at the above link. (13.8 MB for 1 min 22 sec. Someone at Placer County doesn't care about bandwidth costs.)To spare you the download time, here's my unofficial transcript:

Not the most frantic 911 call I've ever heard. Hearing the young one (he's three) in the background pisses me off more than anything.Reading the list of previous 911 calls to the Artest home speaks loudly of serious problems between the two, obviously. The Beamer crashing into the bushes in front of Ron's house when Ron wasn't in town, in particular, will draw attention.

But when the police report says he slapped her and that he ripped the phone away from her when she first tried to call 911? Most people who stuck up for him this morning are going to find it hard to continue to do so.
