Waiving the fine seems wrong to me.
Arresting him seems wrong to me. Way bigger things we need to be spending money on than some guy selling alittle bit of weed on a college campus. Probably got strong armed by the prosecutor and likely had a crappy lawyer. Too bad...
Have to agree with this. I feel like what he got was pretty standard when it comes to first timers, even if it was a third degree felony charge. Jailing him would of just been a giant waste of taxpayer money.
His life will probably be made a living hell if/when he comes back next year from pretty much all opposing student sections all season long. I feel like that's punishment enough :P
I think with the conviction, he's probably done at Akron. He has two serious violations of the student code of conduct:
* Use, possession, manufacture, cultivation, distribution or facilitating the distribution of marijuana or any narcotic, hallucinogenic, or other controlled substances as defined in applicable federal, state or municipal law.
* Commission of any felony or misdemeanor under applicable federal, state and municipal law.
He entered a guilty plea -- not no contest -- so basically he has admitted to both violations. Even though he would be entitled to a hearing, it would be difficult to overcome the guilty plea. He should be through at Akron.
