NFL Line Judge Under Investigation for Domestic Violence, Denies Wrongdoing
NFL line judge Carl Johnson -- the former head of officiating for the league -- is under investigation for an alleged pattern of domestic violence in Louisiana, though he's adamant the accusations are BS, TMZ Sports has learned.
Johnson's accuser is a 49-year-old woman who told police she and Johnson had been living together in 2016 when the NFL official became aggressive. She claims Johnson first got violent in December and during the incident, Johnson hit her so hard, he busted one of her breast implants.
The woman claims she went to the NFL in March hoping the league could help her out. Unclear what happened next but a few months later, she went to police.
Court officials in Louisiana confirmed the accuser requested a temporary restraining order against Johnson and it was granted. But a request to make the restraining order permanent was rejected at a later hearing.
But it's not case closed ... a rep for the Lafourche Parish Sheriff's Office confirmed to TMZ Sports that the case involving Johnson and his accuser is still under investigation.
Sources connected to the case tell us Johnson has denied all allegations of domestic violence and vows to continue to fight the case.
We spoke with the accuser who claims she has photos and audio recordings to back up her allegations.
Of course, in the wake of the Ezekiel Elliott situation -- the league believes it has the right to impose punishment on NFL players and other staff for domestic violence without a conviction in a court of law. Elliott feels differently.
We reached to the NFL to see if it was investigating Johnson -- so far, no word back. But we do know Johnson has been working NFL games. He was the line judge during Monday Night Football in Week 1.
TMZ Sports reached out to Johnson who told us, "No comment."

NFL investigating official for domestic violence
The NFL is investigating an accusation of domestic violence against line judge Carl Johnson, who was once the league's vice president of officiating.
"The matter is under review under of the league's personal conduct policy," a league spokesman said Tuesday.
All league employees are subject to discipline under the league's domestic violence policy, which establishes a six-game suspension for a first offense. Mitigating circumstances can increase or decrease that game total.
TMZ Sports first reported the allegations, made earlier this year in Louisiana by a woman Johnson was living with. She filed for a restraining order in July, according to a spokesperson for the Lafourche Parish Clerk of Court, but the request was dismissed July 21. The woman has appealed the decision.
A representative for the Lafourche Parish Sheriff's Office told TMZ Sports that the case is still under investigation.
Johnson was the NFL's top official from 2010 to '12 before returning to the field as the league's first full-time official. He dropped full-time status a few years later and was not among the 21 full-time officials announced by the league earlier this month.
Johnson is part of referee Terry McAulay's crew and worked Sunday's game between the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium.

Flowers don't need to be yelled at at this point, he looks morally defeated. He needs to be moved and given less responsibility. Maybe a move to left guard between Pugh and Richburg. RT is not gonna help now that I think about it...defenses will just shift their best pass rusher over there n he will still be on an island and LEARNING a new position.brett Jones at RG and Hart/Fluker at RT. this team could easily self implode if the HC does not shake somethings up.....QUICK. if giants start the next game w the same oline is a problem on many levels.
