I was just about to post about a UF player’s arrest on credit card fraud charges, and then the Rap Sheet details an Alabama player’s arrest.
According to Rapoport, A.J. Walker, a walk-on receiver, was arrested for public intoxication.
This charge is typical for many college students, who enjoy the “fun” of campus life a bit too much.
The real SEC arrest story of the day comes from the epitome of virtue, the Florida Gators. According to the Palm Beach Post, Jamar Hornsby faces a felony charge of credit card fraud.
According to the Gainesville Sun, Hornsby had been using a credit card for the last seven months that had belonged to Ashley Slonina. Slonina was the female UF student who died in a motorcycle crash along with Florida football player Michael Guilford in October.
What can you say about a person who uses a credit card from a dead girl? Despicable is about the only thing that comes to mind.
