Gator who stole dead girl's credit card signs with Ole Miss

Former Florida S Jamar Hornsby, who was kicked off the Gators football team when charges arose that stole a dead teammate's dead girlfriend's credit card and used it for six months, has landed at Ole Miss, according to this report at Red Solo Cup.

OK... I don't even know where to start with this one, so let's go back and revisit....

The card abuse began on Oct. 13, 2007, the day after Slonina's death, according to court records and involved a BP gas card. According to Alachua County Sheriff's Authorities, Hornsby made 70 charges - 33 in Alachua County and 37 in Duval County.

Authorities were first alerted of the credit card fraud after Slonina's family noticed charges on the fleet card they could not explain.

...

Hornsby, a redshirt freshman from Jacksonville, appeared in eight games for Florida last season, recording five tackles.

It's not Hornsby's first brush with the law. In April of 2007, Hornsby was cited on a misdemeanor criminal mischief charges when the tossed a man on a hood of a car during a fight, causing about $750 in damages. Hornsby remains on a deferred prosecution agreement from the charges, in which he must pay back the damages, pay a fine and stay out of trouble for the next 18 months.

How badly does Ole Miss need help in the defensive backfield when HDN is taking a flyer on a guy who...

... gets in a bar fight,
... gets arrested,
... goes on probation,
... and then steals from his dead teammate's dead girlfriend?

Wow. Welcome to the new Ole Miss.
