Icon24 Hawks prospect Garret Ross evades felony revenge porn charges

Classy guy...

http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports...329-story.html

Basically, Ross and another teammate in Rockford were fooling around on their girlfriends, both got dumped because of it, both blamed a third girl, and decided to share out nude/sexual pictures of the third girl against her will.

In Illinois, that is a felony charge with up to three years in jail. But he had those charges dropped when the investigation determined that Ross was in Michigan at the time of the crime, so the state lacked jurisdiction. In Michigan, that same offence is merely a misdemeanor.

The Hawks suspended Ross when he was charged. His future status with the team is unknown. Judging by his statistics in the AHL, my bet is Chicago washes its hands of him when his contract expires.

Really? Really?

At what point does that ever seem like a good idea?

What an ass.

This is the correct answer.

Or at least don't expect discretion when sending them to someone who has a girlfriend and is just using you as a booty call.

Not to excuse what this guy did, but sometimes the law shouldn't have to protect you from making dumb decisions in the first place.

I don't think that was the intention, Ross might be a piece of garbage but unfortunately there are lots of pieces of garbage out there and the only way to protect yourself is to not send them. I think it's similar to saying to never leave your drink unattended.

Sorry its the world we live in, go talk to some 20 year old guy their phone is likely full of nudes from chicks they just met.

Victim blaming is a real problem. That was not an example of victim blaming so please do some research on a term before using it.

I don't blame victims...people with their heads in the sand are partly to blame. We need to teach younger people to be smarter with technology...guys a d-bag obviously the world is full of them though.
