Message: [QUOTE="RF2044, post: 1133605, member: 40"] Actually, right / wrong / or indifferent, MCW paid his way out of that violation, was never charged with a crime, was never prosecuted by the store, never was arrested, and did not have a criminal background. Had he been, I'm fairly sure that there would have been some sanctions imposed. JB is nothing if not lenient, but I don't think he could look the other way given the groundswell of then recent negative publicity the program had endured. Conversely, Winston does have a criminal background. He was investigated for sexual assault. He went into a Piggly Wiggly with the intention of shoplifitng lobster [if I'm not mistaken]. This latest incident might not in and of itself be that big of a deal, but on top of everything else it shows a pattern of really poor judgement on this kid's part. This incident alone might not warrant a several punishment, but it was the tipping point to send Winston a message. [/QUOTE]
