Charges ahead for planted Sox shirt?

by C.J. SULLIVAN, JOE MOLLICA and ERIC LENKOWITZ, New York Post
April 14, 2008

The Yankees officially reversed the jersey curse yesterday - extracting from the new stadium's concrete a David Ortiz shirt planted by a Red Sox-obsessed hardhat hoping to hex his team's arch rivals.

Then they warned the traitorous construction worker, Gino Castignoli, to watch his back, saying criminal and civil charges could be on deck.

"I spoke with a (prosecutor). There may be criminal issues," Yankee Chief Operating Officer Lonn Trost said.

Trost speculated that Castignoli could be on the hook for criminal mischief.

A spokesman for the Bronx district attorney said, "We can't speculate" on possible charges.

I'd prosecute if the shirt harmed the structural integrity of the concrete in some significant way. Otherwise, as they say in New York, "forget about it, already!"

Reasons:

1. It's the Yankees.

2. They dug it up themselves; nobody forced them to dig the thing up.

3. It's the Yankees. Wink

The guy should have just kept his mouth shut untill after opening day. And he certainly should not have told them where he bured the darn thing.
