and he's been convicted of assault

maximum of one year in prison

this quote pretty much says it all

"The defendant, in this case, was in his car parking near his hotel when the victim appeared near the defendant's vehicle, banged on the back and the rear window may have shattered," Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz said. "The defendant could have driven away from the scene or call 911. Instead, he retaliated by getting out of his car and punching the victim. This was a death that could have been avoided, sparing the victim's family the loss of a loved one."

Jones doesn't belong in collegiate coaching

Reading this story if true this “victim” was drunk pounding on windows of car doors for rides, already punched someone and broke the guys window. I know folks that would have shot this douche.

It’s very unfortunate he died but MANY folks would have the reaction this coach had. I’m painting this as an absolute accident more than homicide.

I don't see much of anything in that vid.

It shows the guy was backing up and dis-engaging.

Listen, any time you engage in a fist fight with a stranger these days, you invite the possibility of death or jail. Just like the Beathard kid. A sad and different story, but it falls under the same camp.

I've been young and drunk and I've done it too, but there's the real and not too small possibility you kill someone or someone kills you.

Former Wake Forest assistant basketball coach, Jamill Jones, 37, will serve three years of probation, perform 1,500 hours of community service and pay a fine of $1,000 in the August 2018 death of Boca Raton resident Sandor Szabo.

That's crazy. Zero time is nuts. Honestly I think some people have gotten jail time for punching people and the other person not even being seriously hurt.
