umm no, he should be punished in a matter constructive to society.
it only costs us money for him to rot in jail
if he can change one kid's life for the better it is far more valuable

go ahead, I am as liberal as they come, not the norm here, and I think most side with you on this.
the guy could help society out here, myopic opinions aside, the guy could make a huge difference out here. He could, period.
he will do jack all in a jail cell, on what planet does that not make sense to you?
Yeah maybe he could do some good...except he's not willing. They offered him a much smaller jail sentence with community service and he wasnt interested, at all, in the jail time, no matter how small, or the hours of community service.
He isn't willing to be something that could be used for good in the situation cause he's an arrogant punk who thinks he should be above the law and not have to pay the same penalties any regular joe would because he's rich and plays football.
I have zero sympathy for Plax. He's another moron who has brought this trouble on himself by being a complete moron.
It's a very, very, very simple fact of life here. If you don't want to get in trouble, don't want to pay big fines, don't want to go to jail then you only have to do something very simple.
Obey the law.
It's pretty easy, actually.
The fact that he's a rolemodel, or whatever, to kids from the hood isn't relevant to his own stupidity. When you break the law you pay the price. Period.
Don't like that price? Then DON'T BREAK THE LAW.
It's not a difficult concept to follow. Or at least you wouldn't think so. Apparently it's more difficult for some, than others, to realise that simple fact.
