Mark Sanchez’s ex, Erin Campaneris, the mother of his 8-year-old son, Daniel, is speaking out after Sanchez’s recent stabbing incident in Indianapolis.
Campaneris, the UK-born model who goes by Bobby T., took to social media on Sunday with a statement intended to draw a clear distinction between Daniel and his father, former Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez.
“I am aware of the serious criminal charges currently facing my son’s father, Mark Sanchez,” Campaneris wrote on her Instagram story.“My foremost priority has always been, and remains, our eight-year-old son, Daniel. I chose to remain silent publicly to protect Daniel.
“Now that everything is out in the open, my focus hasn’t changed. I have always been concerned for his safety and for what he is exposed to. Sadly, none of this is surprising to me. Like everyone else, I learned of the horrific event through a news alert on my phone while sitting next to Daniel. I still know only what is publicly available. …
“At the end of the day, I’m simply a mama to a very sweet young boy doing my best to protect his peace.”
On Oct. 4, around 12:30 a.m., Sanchez was in Indianapolis for the Colts-Las Vegas Raiders game. He became involved in what police called a ‘physical disturbance.’ Sanchez allegedly attacked a man and was subsequently stabbed. Sanchez was seen on video walking down the street holding the side of his body. He was eventually taken to the hospital and initially listed in stable condition.
While Sanchez was in the hospital, he was initially charged with misdemeanors, including battery with injury, unlawful entry of a motor vehicle, and public intoxication. These charges were later elevated to a Level 5 felony battery after photos of the man involved surfaced.
In a video posted on X/Twitter by Max Lewis, a reporter for Fox 59 and CBS 4, Sanchez was seen on his way to turn himself in to police with his lawyer. He did not answer any questions before going inside.
After being booked and released, Lewis asked Sanchez if he had anything to say to the people of Indianapolis.
“Right now, I’m just focused on my recovery,” Sanchez said. “I just wanted to thank the first responders and Eskenazi Hospital. I also want to thank Dr. (Lindsey) Mossler, the surgeon. She saved my life, so I’m grateful for that.”
