SIAP - Sammy Sasso

[dtripp26]

Got a message yesterday from a friend with a minnow tweet saying Sammy was arrested in PA. I gave it a read but I never trust that source, but this article sheds more light on the situation.

I don't care how you feel about guns or mary jane, this definitely falls into the category of poor decision making for someone who was just hired as a college coach.

Lehigh should be looking for a new assistant coach. This was not an accident. You don’t need 4 handguns to protect yourself when you can truly only use one at a time.

Wasnt it rumored that the original carjacking or shooting might have been drug related?

That has been mentioned quite a bit since this latest story broke

Us old timers remember back to Sasso's high school recruitment and the stories of how TnT backed off on recruiting him because of rumored "character" issues.

Connect the dots!

Considering when he got shot it was during a drug deal this is not surprising.

Yep…just not very smart.

Is that known or just a rumor?

Never ceases to amaze me how careless people are when engaging in criminal activity while operating a motor vehicle.

If you are going take the risk of driving a car with an expired or invalid license, with expired or invalid registration/, or risk driving on public roads under the influence of drugs/alcohol, possess narcotics, handguns, or any other illegal items…..
MAKE ******* SURE your vehicle is completely up to code and working. Failure to do so gives police a reason to stop. Avoid the stop.

Citizens have diminished privacy rights in a car. Once the interaction is initiated, it is a very short step to reasonable suspicion of a crime and a thorough search of the vehicle. The minute you roll down your window you’re likely screwed.

I always laugh when I read about cars being stopped on interstate 80 hauling like hundreds of thousands of drugs but get pulled over having a $10 head/brake light out

If I'm remembering the original story correctly, he was shot while interrupting a vehicle burglary not drug deal robbery but I could be wrong.
Correction...he was getting car jacked.
