He looks like he could pass for a 16-17 year old.

And this is a felony crime?

America everyone.

Article says only a $1500 fine so far. If he had played his cards right he could have gotten a basketball scholarship!! He just needed the right forged documents.

He faces felony tampering with government records.

Not surprising though. This country’s backwards criminal justice systems loves to systematically lock up people of color at any chance.

How do you do fellow classmates?

[PACOX]

high school coaches voted Gilstrap-Portley, who played under the alias of Rashun Richardson, the District 11-5A offensive player of the year.

LOL.

Shame on him but what they need to do is look into all these grown ass people he tricked.

I could buy him being a senior but he told them he was a FRESHMAN. And then...wait...and then he transferred schools! BUT THATS NOT IT! He was on the basketball team!!! No one noticed that the coach was on the basketball court???

Real talk, what kind of operations are these schools running if its that easy to dupe them. Gross incompetence all around. This guy was just trying to earn a GED.

Chill, bucko. First of all, it doesn't look like he's going to jail. He's facing charges, but anyone who commits a felony is going to be faced with charges, lol. Anyone who commits any level of crime will face charges for it.

I was expecting this guy

Yeah, turns out it's not okay to spoof your identity. Who knew?

Oh, but it is okay to drive drunk like Ethan Couch, kill 4 people and paralyze another and get off scot free with no jail time because of rich white privilege?

This country loves to throw young men and women of color in prison for petty crimes or non violent drug charges. I have no faith that he will get a fair trial.

Holy strawman Robin. That was impressive.

Almost Endus level, close but not quite.

No, certain parts of the country love incarcerating large numbers of people (normally a very disproportionate amount of blacks and Latinos, as they make up large amounts of the poor in these high incarceration areas). This is largely because of for-profit prison systems putting lots of pressure on towns and counties to hit quotas to keep funding up. There's obviously an amount of racism involved and lots of Americans have a sadistic inclination where they love to see people get put into prison and punished even over petty crimes or crimes where incarceration wouldn't actually be a great step to take.

Mostly it's the for profit prisons that want as many inmates as possible. If we didn't have those around, we may have prisons filled with minorities but they wouldn't be overflowing and minorities wouldn't be jailed over petty crimes.

At any rate, it remains to be seen if he'll be punished with prison or not. He did break some laws and tamper with official documents, but not for absolutely nefarious reasons. If anything, the case should hopefully serve as yet another example of how poor the education system for children and adults are in the country.

I believe they have teens like that in Sweden.

Hot damn, you sure are looking for a fight. I'd almost invoke Poe's law.

I'd suggest you go run a round around the block or something before you bust a bloodvessel.

I have heard the same thing before ! Seems like they go free when they commit their crimes
