Conduct charges against Clemens' son, teammate dropped

SALEM, Va. -- Disorderly conduct charges against Roger Clemens' son and another minor league teammate have been dropped nearly three months after a restaurant disturbance.

 

Salem Commonwealth's Attorney Thomas E. Bowers said in a news release Friday that he dropped the charges against Koby Clemens and Mark Ori.

An assault and battery charge against a third player, Jimmy Goethals, is set for a court hearing Dec. 2.

A spokesman for Bowers said the prosecutor agreed to drop the case against Clemens and Ori after their attorneys said they would perform community service. The two athletes spoke to four student groups Thursday in the Salem area about alcohol, drugs and peer pressure.

Clemens, Ori and Goethals played for the Salem Avalanche, a Houston Astros affiliate that was dissolved after its season ended in September.

The three men were arrested Aug. 31 after police were called to the parking lot of a restaurant.
