It was back in March when the Rio Rancho High School Junior Varsity baseball team took on La Cueva High School. According to an email from the La Cueva principal to parents at the time, a 16-year-old Rio Rancho JV player admitted to peeing in a water jug being used by the La Cueva baseball team.
Some students drank from the contaminated jug. That player was facing 15 battery charges, according to Rio Rancho police: one for each person who drank from the water. Full story is here.


That's one lazy prosecutor. I was a career ADA in Albuquerque for 20 years, and I'd have won that case.
ReplyDeleteI can go pee in their jug without criminal charges. Just a couple years ago I couldn't sit inside a restaurant without going to jail. What a world we have made.
ReplyDeleteUh, attempted poisoning? So this gutless DA wouldn't prosecute some restaurant employee for spitting on food they served? Putting some contaminant in food or drink? I'm sure there is some charge they could make stick.
