Well the ARRL has Attorney Services that can get the charges dropped in lieu of a Civil Law Suit.
If anyone has contact with the ARRL Regional or District Manager they should be notified of this. nothing more embarassing than a T V , radio , internet news article that would really give that area a black eye and the City or County Council would have to answer to the Voters, like what happen in Wayland, the City Voters sent out a recall ballot last year all politicians were fired as Donald Trump would say " Youre Fired !
