Oh, shite. The Lee County DA's office is out for blood.

§ 13A-11-153. Prohibited acts


It shall be unlawful for any person to do any of the following:

(1) Intentionally release, steal, destroy, demolish, obliterate, or otherwise cause loss of any animal or crop from an animal or crop facility without the consent of the owner.

(2) Damage, vandalize, or steal any property on or from an animal or crop facility.

(3) Obtain access to an animal or crop facility by false pretenses for the purpose of performing acts not authorized by that facility.

(4) Break and enter into any animal or crop facility with the intent to destroy, alter, duplicate, or obtain unauthorized possession of records, data, materials, equipment, animals, or crops.

(5) Knowingly obtain control by theft or deception that is unauthorized, or to exert control that is unauthorized over any records, data, materials, equipment, animals, or crops of any animal or crop facility for the purpose of depriving the rightful owner or facility of records, materials, data, equipment, animals, or crops.

(6) Possess or use records, materials, data, equipment, crops, or animals in any way to copy or reproduce records or data of an animal or crop facility knowing or reasonably believing that the records, materials, data, equipment, crops, or animals have been obtained by theft or deception, or without authorization of the rightful owners or administrators of the animal or crop facility.

(7) Enter or remain on an animal or crop facility with the intent to commit an act prohibited under this section.



If they hit him with (2), then the below will apply...
§ 13A-11-154. Violations


Any person who violates Section 13A-11-153 shall be guilty of a Class C felony if the loss is two hundred fifty dollars ($250) or more. Any person who violates Section 13A-11-153 shall be guilty of a Class A misdemeanor if the loss is less than two hundred fifty dollars ($250).



So he gets popped with another felony since the amount is in excess of $2500 for criminal mischief in the 1st.


Damn

According to his attorney if they hit him with that other charge he'd be open to "20, 30, even 40 years."


That is called a bargaining chip... The DA will agree that IF UpDork pleads guilty and takes a 2-4 year punishment, then no other charges. Fight it and he could face 1-10 for this crime, plus we bring in additional charges which could get you 20-40 more... So does UpDork feel lucky today, is he confident in his case?

Man. That sucks. There are only a handful of places in the state where that particular chapter of the criminal code applies. AG school FTL.

Ehhh...the dropped screen pass by Richardson was more damaging. Had he caught that for a score, it would have iced the game.


ehhhh, if Fairley had not been hit with that "unsportsmanlike" bull shite, you would have been punting to begin with.

See how that works. Now stick to the topic. Your fan base.

I just read that New Iberia, Louisiana, is cutting down a 130 year old oak to do road construction. It's name is "Big Al". Where's the outrage LSU fans?

Finebaum isn't stupid; he took the interview as an opportunity to stir up his trademark bullshite. By saying Updyke isn't an outlier, he enrages Bama fans everywhere. Dumbasses at ESPN...

20-40 is absurd...

He could have had sex with his 4 year old daughter made a video of and sold it on the internet and done less time.

The guy needs to be punished but come the frick on.

Like I said, chair or nothing else. Not for the tree, for being such a dumbass to call into a radio station and admit it.

That's fn stupid. I'm sure the intent is if someone killed a bunch of cows at a dairy plant, or killed a bunch of orange trees at a fruit farm. Auburn isn't an animal or crop facility is it?

Those trees would have died of natural causes before a 40 yr sentence would be up.

personally I like the idea of a heavy fine combined with Harvey having to wear Auburn clothing while he serves as their groundskeeper for the next 10 years of probation

Oh, and ban him from attending any Alabama football games
