Penn State Football Star Fails Drug Test

All Big Ten Conference linebacker Navorro Bowman tested positive in a recent random substance abuse test conducted by the university. A Centre County, PA Magistrate issued Bowman an additional year of probation for his marijuana violation. If Bowman violates his probation he could face up to six months in jail. Coach Joe Paterno stated, "Sometime we tested him and he was positive, and we were aware of that." Paterno concluded. "I don't want to overreact, he's been a pretty good kid. But, on the other hand, he's got to solve his problem, and we'll see how we work it out next week."

Utah Senator Dennis Stowell had asked that the issue be studied carefully and Rep. Christopher Herrod said "If someone's on drugs, we shouldn't be giving them money," he said. "There's nowhere in the Constitution that says, 'You have a right to get welfare." At the center of the debate is cost and legality. An analyst for Community Action Partnership of Utah stated that "The cost to test all Utah’s families that receive 'Temporary Assistance for Needy Families' would be high." The analyst added, "That testing all welfare recipients just once would cost about $255,000 and a lawsuit against the state would likely cost more than $1 million."
