Cureton said he encourages Mitchell to turn himself in.Mitchell, who goes by "Bradley," was listed on the Crescent High School football roster Friday night. Anderson District 3 Superintendent Gail Southard said she was aware of an investigation into what happened Tuesday but that Mitchell could continue to play football until he was arrested.Cureton listed the Crescent High School Athletic Director as one of the witnesses to the incident.
I go to Crescent High School, and I have been in Bradley's class. And yes this is true, it really happened. He was paid like 130 dollars for, was in jail for like 9 hours (I think) and the man who paid him also paid his bail. He is a great football player for our school and was NOT able to play against the Liberty High School football team, and could not run cross country/track against them either.
