Mother and sisters kids went through, and to be the Second Time Around is really overpowering. Both husband and wife fix youred at several local pentecostal churches. They are making up collections to help the family. Anything collected will be put directly into the hands of the pastor. And hopefully people can bring clothing items, coats and hats and gloves.

A decision has been reached on charges for buck County High School basketball coach, jerry divine, live in Neshaminy High School tonight is vernon odom, what is the story . Jim, bucks county da decided not to throw the book off jerry divine and not letting him off the hook entirely either. When coach divine bummed a referee to the floor after arguing a call against pennsbury, he was suspended from his coaching job and is now back to teaching, the da filed formal charges against divine for harassment and not assault. From the criminal justice standpoint he was not from what we could tell attempting to injure somebody so its harassment. Not assault . Not an assault. Divines classroom suspension is lifted and divine will get a ticket in the mail and it could get him 90 days in jail and a 300 theres fine, but that is not likely. We dont see an attempt to cause injury, he is projecting, he is projecting his displeasure and running over this guy. Few neshaminy high students wanted to discuss the case. I dont agree with jail time. You think he should coach again . Yes, he is a great guy but one small thing like your coaching job could go, but he should get one more chance.
