Intriguing Penguin 0 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 I hate this football culture that's so prevalent in this country. Universities focus so much on sports too instead of praising actual academic achievements. & high schools. (at least mine does... imo) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
aphrodisease 231 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 It reminds me a similar case in France, except that the guy killed a girl and burned her body after ... he was 13 ! He already was convicted too. Justice have a really big problem.

Willy Wonka 4 Posted August 12, 2014 Author Share Posted August 12, 2014 He is already convicted....... id rather have him go to school then be some kind of crack snorting junk on the streets He didn't even serve his minimum sentence. He should absolutely finish his education, but there's no way he should be allowed on the football team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClapDown 0 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Why? Most sports teams have strict codes of conducts which will ban players from playing even for minor infractions like drinking or getting failing grades. It's absurd that someone has been convicted of rape (a serious crime that they received jail time for) would be allowed to return to the team when others wouldn't be for much less serious offenses.

Willy Wonka 4 Posted August 12, 2014 Author Share Posted August 12, 2014 Why? 1. The football administration essentially facilitated and tried to coverup the rape. 2. Extracurricular activities are a privilege. 3. Their athletic code of conduct reads:The Steubenville City Schools Board of Education recognizes that participation in athletics is a Privilege, not a right, and that those students involved in athletic competition participate voluntarily under certain obligations and restrictions required of all team members. The Board of Education believes that due to high visibility, student- athletes have a strong influence on members of the student body as well as the community. A student-athletes conduct while representing a team, traveling to or from an event, as well as in the community, is seen as a direct reflection upon the athletic program and the standards of Steubenville High School...Student-athletes who are under the Athletic Code of Conduct are representatives of Steubenville City Schools and are expected to behave as model students and citizens in and out of school. Student-athletes may be denied participation for display of behavior which reflects negatively on the student, team, or school. Denial will be determined by the high school administration and or coach according to the severity of the infraction. 4. In addition to raping the girl, he was also drunk, which violates the athletic code of conduct and is grounds for expulsion from athletics, and the school. There's literally no reason he should be on that team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willy Wonka 4 Posted August 12, 2014 Author Share Posted August 12, 2014 The outrage should be that he is allowed back into a high school, not that he is on a sports team. I support his right to an education, although I do also question why he is even allowed in a high school as a registered s-x offender. The fact that he's on the football team again is disgusting though. It just goes to show how trivially the administration is treating his conviction. It shows where their priorities are.
