They severed the two cases. As I predicted, the other guy gave him up.

Other than the statement AA is alleged to have made, it seems like a weak case.

Without the other guys statement, I don't know where they can go with this. No addressed to him, not present at the time.

They better have a lot more than what they are saying.

Another local athlete's name wasn't on the package. Sure are a lot of people being charged without their name on the package. At the very least, I learned what to do if a package gets delivered to my home.

Edit: I suppose if you get caught with "jars" in your home, it won't help your case.

[LZIp]

I wonder if AA and Perez had the same hookup.

[Dr Z]

Looks as though Chris Perez's dog may be in trouble. Package addressed to him!?!?

Perez and his wife, Melanie, had 5.7 ounces of pot sent to their home under the name “Brody Baum.” The couple’s dog name is Brody and Melanie’s maiden name is Baum. Crafty.

Alex to enter a plea this afternoon after reaching a plea agreement with the Summit County Prosecutor.

[K-Roo]

WOW. Took a Felony!

Unusual for a first arrest. They must have really had something on him, AND wanted to make an example of him.

I think we can assume he will not be at the point for UA any more.

[PB1719]

I think your assumption is a safe bet. That's 18 mos., not 180.

I think they may have required a drug test, and if so, there is only ONE reason not to show up!

I think he is done as a college BB player.

[Dave in Green]

Well, there are other possible reasons. I hope it wasn't a drug test he missed, and I hope there was a legitimate reason for missing whatever test it was. Probation violations can send all the remorse and repentance expressed to the prosecutor and judge right down the toilet. In the absence of all the facts, I really want to give Abreu the benefit of the doubt.

[akronzips71]

I don't know what tests Probation can order other than drug tests.

They don't do eye tests or math tests.

And you don't go to jail for missing them.

[WinZip]

He's writing himself off of this forum and board. I don't wanna hear about him anymore. As a fan I want something positive to cheer for. His time is done

Anyone who doesn't want to think there's the slightest chance that Abreu might someday return to Zips basketball will be pleased with this headline:

Abreu Officially Done at Akron

Not exactly surprising.

Keep in mind, he was just recently sentenced to probation, which is a jail alternative, and he already violated.

He is well down the path of self destruction.

AA needs professional help. If you are close to AA, please direct him to a rehab center. He obviously needs it.

For the legal counselors, can the court mandate a 30 to 60 day stay in such a facility?

If it's for pot, no he doesn't. He's screwed either way at this point.
