Youth minister charged after 'dodgeball rage' incident

Friday, March 31, 2006; Posted: 6:20 p.m. EST (23:20 GMT)

LIBERTY, Missouri (AP) -- A youth minister was charged with assault for allegedly knocking down a 16-year-old boy and kicking him in the groin after taking a head shot from the teen in a dodgeball game.

David M. Boudreaux, 27, was charged Wednesday with one count of third-degree assault. According to court documents, the incident happened in February at Crescent Lake Christian Academy.

Authorities said the teen missed Boudreaux with one throw but then knocked the youth minister's glasses off with the next.

The boy apologized, authorities said, but Boudreaux pushed him backward, and when the teen got up again Boudreaux kicked him in the groin and left.

The teen suffered whiplash and post-concussion syndrome and had blood in his urine after being kicked, according to court records.

Boudreaux later apologized, prosecutors said.

Jeanne D. Hewitt, administrator of Crescent Lake Christian Academy, said Boudreaux had been placed on administrative leave.

Holy poor sportsmanship!

It's the last sentence that really pisses me off. The guy should have been automatically fired. It's not that guilt could possibly be in doubt.

Not only that, the American Dodgeball Association of America (ADAA) should hand down a lifetime ban to the minister. Dodgeball is a man's game. If you can't take a shot to the head like a man then you have no business on the court.

American laws may have required an investigation before they fired him. Thus putting him in administrative leave until the academy conducts an investigation or his trial is completed.

A good punishment would be for the 16 year old to kick the minister in the nuts. See if he enjoys it. Smile

I will. This is THE KOREA GENERAL DISCUSSION FORUM. when you get back to Canada or where ever the heck it is you hatched from, you can regularly post your gripes about Korea or where ever else you are not living in order to maintain your fairweather fan persona in that or those respective countries' general discusion forums so required. For now, please initiate this kind of discussion in the "off-topic forum". Thanx bye

Sorry, I when I posted this, there was only a minute until class. There really should be a function in the edit to change the forum. Still, I take satisfaction in knowing that while I did make a stupid mistake, Pest2's posts are always stupid.

If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball.

I think this proves Christians and balls don't mix.
