Dustin Pedroia's brother accused of child molestation

Found January 25, 2009 on Sox Addict: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Dustin Pedroia

I guess every member of the Pedroia family can't be the MVP of the American League. Dustin Pedroia's brother, Brett Pedroia, was arrested on January 9th and accused of 'oral copulation and lewd acts with a child under 14.' He has since been released on $50,000 bail.

This doesn't really have anything to do with baseball so I'm not sure why I'm posting about it. It's just pretty messed up that one brother can be a baseball playing role-model to kids that think they can't do something because they're short and the other.. not so much.

  • I want to say that people need to get a grip. Just because the pedroia family is liked and have a business in woodland california does not mean that they are exempt from making mistakes and Brett just did. I have to say that innocent yes until proven guilty but read between the lines here no child comes forward and makes up this sort of disgusting stuff. I say shame on Brett how he has just ruined his life even if he is proven innocent the general public will still have that suspicion of did he really do this!!!!!!!!!! Brett would have never been arrested unless the police had sufficient evidence and apparently they did!!!!!

  • If you're looking for people to defend an accused child molester.. you're looking in the wrong place.
