Redemption: Athletes Overcoming Their Indiscretions
Modern day athletes find themselves in a lot of trouble, both legally (criminal and civil) and otherwise. Oftentimes, attorneys are needed to ameliorate the situation and clean up the mess. Depending on the athlete and circumstances, the path back to respectability may be long and arduous. Alternatively, some athletes seem to get off easier than others in both the eyes of the law and/or the public. This panel will examine both ends of the spectrum, distinguishing and analyzing the individual circumstances.
