Climate Change Protesters Who Disrupted Harvard/Yale Football Game Get Community Service
“can perform the community service wherever they live”
It’s surprising that they received any punishment at all. Things like this often get brushed away.
The Hill reports:
Harvard, Yale climate change protesters get community service for disrupting football game
Protesters who disrupted the Yale-Harvard football game last month to raise awareness on climate change were sentenced Friday to community service.
After the court hearing, where around 50 people were sentenced, many took to the steps of the courthouse afterward to hold a climate change demonstration, according to The Associated Press.
Judge Philip Scarpellino of New Haven Superior Court in Connecticut sentenced the roughly 50 people who were charged on Nov. 23 with disorderly conduct to perform five hours of community service.
If the conditions of the sentence are met, the charges will be dropped at a follow-up court hearing on Jan. 27, the AP noted.
The students can perform the community service wherever they live.
Students and alumni from both schools took to midfield for an extended period of time during the football game, the 136th between the two Ivy League rivals.

They should have gotten an ass beating on the spot.
The problem being the tools think domestic terrorism is community service!
I’d like to know what the typical punishment is for running onto the field during a football game.
Judge was probably a yale or harvard product. Which would be why they didn’t get away scott free.
