I know I am probably alone here, but I feel if the person in question has learned the lesson from what got him in so much trouble, and has changed his ways, I have a problem with punishing or ostracizing him any more than he already has.
I understand that there may be more facts here that I am not aware of or missed, which could change my mind, but if there are no more facts about this story, I will stand by my position.
Cloudy,
I know you like to stand up for people. But, this guy was given his chance with parole and no jail time. He has violated his parole in several different ways. Being on here, Facebook, Twitter and who knows where else is a violation of his parole. Going to Columbus and hanging out with 17-18 year old kids is not something a 31 year old person convicted of handling kiddie porn should be doing. Note he was hugging everyone of those guys in the pictures posted. YUCK! Plus, I would believe something else happened that night. Either he was picking up their tab or worse buying them drinks.
It all adds up to the fact he has not learned his lesson. He is in serious trouble with parole violations. Let alone with hundreds of Ohio State fans that want to take a poke at him. I see him as a con artist. Someone people should stay far away from. He is always saying I did not do that or people are misunderstood about the facts. Does it seem strange that it is never his fault.
It is time for this guy to move on. His actions are giving trivia players a bad name. Given what has happened in the last week. Buzztime needs to deactivate his accounts. BW3 in Ironton needs to tell him thanks for the business but in your best interest it is best that you move on and not come in here anymore. I believe he has been given the chance to correct his ways on his own. Now he needs structured help. Hopefully he will not end up in jail. That will not help at all. I do not wish anything bad for the guy. But, I will not defend his actions. He needs to be off the streets and given help to go on with his life.
Thanks Bob, now that I know more about the situation, I must change my position on the thing. Violating conditions of parole was incredibly foolish, and he has brought this on himself. As much as I can't condone the things he has done, I still can't help feeling sorry for the guy. He was a darn good trivia player, but it looks like his other activities have done him in. Anyway you look at it, it is a very sad story. He may very well deserve the punishment that he has brought on himself, but it is still a very sad story.
