OCTOBER24, Scene+ page 12 News+ page 3 2000 THE The Independent Newspaper Serving Notre Dame and Saint Mary's VOL XXXIV NO. 40 HTTP://OBSERVER.ND.EDU TOPPING THE MOUNTAINEERS ND, SMC students face fines after bust By TIM LOGAN Senior Staff Writer Most of the 147 minors cited in the Oct. 13 raid of Finnigan's Irish Pub will face community service and fines from St. Joseph County, and Notre Dame students will likely receive additional punishment from the University. Nearly everyone who received a citation for being a minor in a tavern is a student at either Notre Dame or Saint Mary's. Police cited six for possession of false iden­ tification and three were arrested and booked at the county jail for various charges of resisting arrest, public intoxication and minor consumption of alcohol. Most of those students were given "pretrial diversion" which prevents the incident from being put on their record if they pay a $220 court fee and complete 40 hours of community service. This is the Prosecutor's Office's standard procedure for minors charged with consuming alcohol. Minor in a tavern is a Class C misdemeanor, which can carry up to a $500 fine and six months in jail, as well as loss of driver's license. The students were not punished that severely, but some still called the sanction harsh. "I think it's pretty heavy," said Merideth Pierce, a Saint Mary's sophomore who was cited. "The community service is heavy for me being a college student." Notre Dame will likely also discipline its underage stu­ dents who were at Finnigan's. No decisions have been made yet about sanctions, according to Jeff Shoup, director of Residence Life, but the students will have individual disciplinary hearings in the coming weeks. Punishments will vary depending on a student's prior record and what they were cited for at Finnigan's. Shoup said it was hard to generalize about sanctions. "When you're talking about Finnigan's, there's a lot of different circumstances," Shoup said. "People who were LIZ LANG!The Observer drinking, not drinking, in possession of fake IDs and so David Givens (left) and Tony Fisher (right) celebrate the 42-28 victory over West Virginia Saturday.
