The nine Florida players who have been suspended for all of the Gators games this season are now facing multiple felony charges.
According to ESPN’s March Schlabach:
State attorney Bill Cervone told ESPN on Monday that the Florida players were using stolen credit card numbers to add money to their university spending accounts, and in some cases the players used the stolen credit card numbers to make direct purchases. “Some of them did it one time, and then some of them have multiple offenses,” Cervone said.
As a result, the players are each facing multiple felony charges.
Here are details from SBNation.com:
Nine Florida football players face potential third-degree felony charges amid an alleged fraud ring, per Alachua County Courts records released Monday afternoon.
Sworn complaints show players are accused of using credit card fraud in order to make purchases that included electronic devices.
The players who face a handful of charges each are starting wide receiver Antonio Callaway; starting running back Jordan Scarlett; receiver Rick Wells; linebackers James Houston and Ventrell Miller; and defensive linemen Jordan Smith, Keivonnis Davis, and Richerd Desir-Jones, while offensive lineman Kadeem Telfort faces a whopping 30 potential charges.
Here are the potential charges that Telfort only is facing:
