Jail Time for a Softball Parent Gone Wild
I just ran across a story of a softball parent gone wild threatening an umpire and spitting at a police officer. This is sad - we don't need in the game. Yet, I presume it is far too common.
Here is the story:
"A Hanover Park man who threatened a youth softball umpire and spit on a deputy sheriff was sentenced today to 5 days in jail and ordered to take anger-management classes.
Michael Beck, 47, of the 1600 block of Arlington Drive in Hanover Park pleaded guilty to misdemeanor charges of battery and assault and was sentenced by DuPage County Judge Peter Dockery to 5 days in the jail's work-release program."
