A question about Brandon Bochenski.....

[hockeygrl]

I frequently visit the USCHO.com message boards. A while ago, someone posted something about Brandon Bochenski. They said that before he started his career at UND he was busted for using counterfeit money. I was just wondering what the story was, and if it is true.

First, it is true.

A teenage kid made a mistake, plead guilty, and paid the price (restitution, community service, probation). Fortunately, most of us aren't newsworthy so the stupid things we do as teenagers don't make the newspapers.

Folks really need to learn how to use a search engine.

The Story.

His two-year diversion agreement is about over. I believe completing that with no offenses expunges his record. (Someone correct me if that is in error.)

And let me restate my position on this clearly:

It's not the mistake in judgement, it's how you take responsibility for it and your actions afterwards.

I dont know if a lot of you remeber last season (Boch's Freshman year) some St. Cloud fans made "Bochenski Bucks". Very creative.

I am sooooooooooooo glad no one at Mauricci pulled that. I might add, that I am surprised no one did. When I was 18-19 there were things that I did that I would not want the public to know about.

I don't think the fake money was that bad, I thought it quite hilarious actually. If that is the worst thing fans do, well we wouldn't have much to complain about then.

I read that too and I didn't believe it at first!! I was like "Noo that can't be the same guy!!" But it is.
