What kind of punishment do you think these kids deserve? The only reason I ask is because one of them is my cousin. I used to do stupid shit when I was a kid but not this stupid. I feel kind of bad for him because he's a good kid and he was just being an idiot. I'm sure they were having fun in the act but they are going to be in some pretty deep shit now. I know for sure his parents will have him by the balls if the man doesn't. www.radioiowa.com/2010/06/16/four-charged-in-vandalism-of-golf-course-in-north-english/

Dumb-ass stuff that kids do. I don't know what type of punishment they deserve. Maybe I'd start with having them (by hand) get all of the golf carts out of the pond. A little manual labor never hurt anyone. After that, who knows.

Oh wait....I just thought about it.
Make them spend the afternoon with BTR. That should be punishment enough.

I did some pretty stupid shit when I was younger, so it would be hypocritical of me to say throw the book at them. I'm with 101...manual labor is a good start.

I'm from North English and all but one of the names sound familiar as being from the area. In my harsh opinion if you are still in North English as a 19 year old adult, AND doing stupid shit like this you aren't going to amount to anything. Castration sounds like a good punishment to cover the punitive damages.

A little manual labor never hurt anyone. After that, who knows. Agreed, but it's going to take them a long time to work off the $40K worth of damage they did.

I need to know more about the circumstances. Are they college men who just got back into town and got smashed one night and thought it would be a hilarious prank or are they degenerate fucksticks who still live in town and are likely dating high school girls? Answer that for me, twine, then I'll answer what the punishment should be.

Four charged in vandalism of golf course in North English by Pat Curtis on June 16, 2010 in Crime & Courts Four young men are facing felony charges in connection with an estimated $40,000 in damage at an eastern Iowa golf course. The vandalism at the Knoll Ridge Golf Course in North English was discovered early Sunday morning. A tip from an individual who saw news coverage of the damage led investigators to four suspects who are all 19-years-old. Cody Gent of Cedar Rapids, Kyle Osweiler of Lone Jack, Missouri, Clayton Voss of North English and Drew Buckley of Williamsburg have been arrested and charged with 2nd Degree Criminal Mischief. The men are accused of breaking into sheds and joyriding with golf carts, damaging many of the greens. Some items were thrown in the pool and several carts were left in a pond.

I would suggest they get punched in the face by the Seattle cop who likes to hit women.

I would assume Gent, and Osweiler are college kids. I also think the Gent kid is my my mother's cousin's kid, therefore related to me in some sort of inbred small town roundabout way much like everyone in a small town. Even more reason to castrate.

That would prolly make him your cousin-brother or perhaps uncle-brother, right?

I know that the kid from North English goes to school at Kirkwood, just sayin'. He's actually a pretty good kid, wouldn't ever smoke dope like some of you hippies on here.

I am a "kid" from North English (err, Millersburg, err, whatever) and I go to Kirkwood. I might possibly be persuaded to some some dope with a couple you hippies here though. But I definitely would not fuck up a golf course. I never did anything stupid like that though.

I coached all 4 and taught 3 of them. 2 of them are good kids for the most part. One moved away about 6 years ago and is back visiting. The other didn't surprise me at all; shoplifting puke that's dad is a huge douche... 2 of their families have money to pay for damages. I think they may be able to settle out of court some of the individual stuff. They were going for some after-hours swimming at the pool, then just got out of hand....

Make them caddy for free the rest of the season? They would get to meet all of the people they pissed off and have to carry their bags around, etc. Sounds fair. And might make them appreciate a golf course for a change.

I bet they would get a painful amount of shit from the golfers, but hey, it would be a hell of a lot better than spending time in the pen.

They need some reform and frankly, the American penal (he, he) system isn't capable. Some good old fashioned hard labor and having to own up to your mistakes is all that is needed. Personally, if it were me (and I am a fucking hard-ass) I would make them caddy and/or mow, do assorted upkeep to the course the rest of the season. Then, once the season was over, I would reward them with season passes to golf the following year so they could enjoy the fruits of their labor. I would be willing to bet that by then, they would not only never do something to that course again but they would police their other peers as well.
