A similar incident occurred in the low-country at a school I won't mention at this time.
The soccer player on the team stole from various people at various times. The school suspended the student for 1 week since 1 of the incidences occurred on school property. The school also stated that the students athletic career in the district was over - no more sports of any kind for the remainder of that students attendance in the district. The police investigated and are recommending PTI.
The not playing soccer and missing his senior year is but a small punishment when associated with the punishment of potential jail.
* Interesting note: If a credit card was involved in any of the thefts by the Dreher students, that could changed the charges to that of a felony as credit card purchases go across state lines, making it a federal offense.
I personally think the 3 at Dreher need to be removed from the team permanently. They knew wrong from right and chose to do the crime - now do the time.
