2 take plea deals, get probation in Hastings hazing incident
HASTINGS, Neb. (AP) — Two former Cambridge High School students accused of hazing at a wrestling camp last summer in Hastings have taken plea deals.
In February the two were charged as juveniles with felony child abuse. Both entered pleas of no contest to disturbing the peace after prosecutors lowered the original charges. Both have turned 18.
Both were given probation until they turn 19. One of them was sentenced in May. The other was sentenced Tuesday.
School officials say the two were punished by the district as well, but the officials would not provide details.
