Dad Regrets Aiming Laser At High School Goalie, Will Face Charges
hah those damn laser pointers..I remember being like 10-11 and doing that..one of the coaches walked from behind the bench around to the otherside and into the stands and grabbed it from behind me and smashed it on the floor..guess I deserved it
LOL, it was a girl's hockey game too, what a massive *********. I'll bet you nobody is more embarrassed by this than the idiot dad's daughter. Obviously this is not worth jail time or anything like that, I think the embarrassment is enough, I'll bet you he gets totally ostracized by other parents in the community after this (and rightfully so).
This isn't even the first time he's done this. No, he has a history of treating his teenage daughter's hockey games like the final battle in Moonraker.
According to WHDH, this time last year, during a tournament game between Winthrop and Wilmington High, Wilmington's coach complained to officials that a player on his team was having a light shined in her eyes. MIAA officials assured him they had found the culprit and it wouldn't happen again.
But it did happen again, and, this time around, it may have played a role in the final score as Winthrop took on top-ranked Medway-Ashland.
The father began using the laser shortly after Medway scored the game's first goal midway through the third period and, conveniently, the uptick in laser activity coincided with Medway surrendering three straight goals to suffer a major upset to 8th-ranked Winthrop.

i think youre giving way too much credit to hockey parents
It was obviously a stupid thing to do and the guy has been publically shamed.
Charges?!
Yeah, right? I mean, he did do something that could cause permanent damage to a teen's eyesight on multiple occasions, but hey, the embarrassment should definitely be enough of a deterrent for future acts.
