"Win at all Cost"

NAW!  I'll take an L if it means keeping my job.  Again, another example in my opinion where society is placing greater emphasis on things like high school athletics versus education.  Click the title for full article. 

Coaches Toby Belt and Quirino Silva -- both assistants -- were suspended without pay last week. They are accused of tampering with evidence that may have implicated a varsity football player.

The incident started when Dena Sandoval started asking questions about injuries her son suffered during a fight at school. He claims a football player stabbed him and a district police officer beat him up.

Both Sandoval and the district were hoping surveillance video would shed some light on the situation, but when district police went to retrieve it, the tape was gone.

According to CISD's superintendent, Belt and Silva were let into the locked room where the school's surveillance videos are kept by the principals' secretary, Maxine Zeringue. She's been fired over the situation.
