The San Diego District Attorney has declined to prosecute Shawne Merriman over accusations that the NFL star choked Tila Tequila and refused to trapped her in his mansion.
The San Diego D.A. just released the following statement:
"After a thorough review of the investigation into the Sept. 6, 2009 incident at the Poway home of Shawne Merriman, our office has determined there is insufficient evidence to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that any crime was committed. The case is now closed."
UPDATE: The General Manager of the San Diego Chargers has issued the following statement: "It's really good news for Shawne. We're happy things worked out for him on the legal front."

We've learned Tila Tequila is currently meeting with investigators for the San Diego District Attorney to discuss the alleged altercation she had with San Diego Charger Shawne Merriman.
The case was handed over to the D.A. yesterday by the San Diego Sheriff's Department. Tila claims Shawne "choked and physically restrained" her as she was attempting to leave his home early Sunday morning.
Shawne is telling a different story: Tila was drunk and he was simply trying to "encourage her to stay until safe transportation could be provided."
The D.A. will ultimately decide if charges will be filed against Shawne.

TMZ has learned the L.A. County District Attorney has received the Chris Brown case from the LAPD.
No decision will be made today. It is under review.
Brown was arrested for allegedly making criminal threats. Sources say the D.A. will review that allegation as well as felony domestic battery.
Brown is scheduled to make an appearance in court tomorrow. It will be interesting to see if the D.A. files charges tomorrow and if Brown is arraigned. If that happens, it will be especially interesting if Rihanna shows up with him.
Of course, we will be all over it.

Just a status report: Police are still tying up loose ends in the Chris Brown investigation. The L.A. County D.A. does not have the case for review -- at least not yet.
The D.A. sent the case back to the LAPD last month to further investigate the allegation that Brown made criminal threats against Rihanna.
We just checked with the D.A. -- the LAPD has not presented the case to them.

That was quick! The L.A. County District Attorney has rolled up and thrown out drug charges against Warren G and buddy Ryan Butler.
The D.A. tells us there's "insufficient evidence" to link the two men to the cheeba cops found in the trunk as the car was not registered to either one of them.
