Here is a shocker, Kane didn't even get a slap on the wrist. It is beyond comical now to think that a felony conviction was even considered. Really the only good thing to come out of this whole affair is a .20$ art work and a classic mug shot.
The Kanes pleaded guilty Thursday to a noncriminal charge of disorderly conduct and were ordered to send an apology to the Buffalo cab driver they were accused of roughing up over 20 cents.The 20-year-old player and his 21-year-old cousin, James Kane, were given conditional discharges, meaning they will avoid any penalties if they stay out of trouble for a year and apologize to cabbie Jan Radecki.
"Obviously, I'm in a little different situation than most kids at this age but at the same time I think it's definitely been a learning lesson and something I want to move forward on," Kane told City Court Judge Thomas Amodeo before receiving his sentence. "It's maybe better I learn it now than later in life."
Outside the courtroom, Kane apologized to his family, the city, the Blackhawks and his fans "for being in a regrettable situation."
"But it's behind me. It's time to move on," he said.
