Students accused of urinating in drinks
Posted: March 4th, 2009 - 4:48pm by Doug Powell
Police said three high school students in Hartford, Wis., should face felony juvenile charges for tricking others into drinking beverages containing urine.
Hartford Union Coach Ben Hoffmann informed authorities of an incident Nov. 28 in which a 16-year-old student tricked a basketball teammate into consuming a drink containing urine.
In a similar incident last month, two other male students put urine into soda and later sent out e-mail messages detailing who drank the contaminated beverages.
