Mark Sanchez Posts Family Message as Indianapolis Case Moves to March

The former Fox Sports analyst faces a felony battery count plus misdemeanor charges stemming from an October altercation with a 69-year-old delivery driver.

Overview

  • Sanchez reappeared on Instagram on Dec. 5 with photos of his wife, Perry Mattfeld, and their twin daughters, thanking those who "kept me standing."
  • Mattfeld publicly signaled support by commenting on the post, marking her first visible response since his arrest.
  • Reporting indicates court dates initially listed for December have been pushed to March, reflecting ongoing scheduling changes in the case.
  • Sanchez has pleaded not guilty to one Level 5 felony battery charge and three misdemeanors as filings and surveillance describe him as the aggressor while driver Perry Tole asserts self-defense.
  • Beyond the criminal case, Tole has filed a civil lawsuit naming Sanchez, Fox, and the restaurant tied to that night’s events, and Fox has parted ways with Sanchez.
