David, thanks so much for your feedback. All I can tell you is I, too, am disappointed with the judge's decision. I lost a little faith in our legal system today. My best to you and yours.

Then they need to make this media circus. That is the only way to apply any pressure on the legal system. This needs to get blown way up so that it gets national exposure. Don't know if it will happen but if we keep trying it may some day.

that judge has to be hoping his peers don't hear about this. what an embarrasment to his community of judges.

Here is a link to the story on the Pittsburgh Post Gazette sports pages. Since I was born and raised in Western Pa. and still read the paper on-line, I have been following the story since last year.

Along with the main story are links to the other coverage surrounding the incident.

Sad, but the official is still feeling the effects of the attack and hasn't worked since due to his injuries that came from this attack.

Don't really understand what the judge was thinking, but all officials PA should boycott! This is pure B.S.!
