    Employing a minor in a dangerous profession is apparently a misdemeanor under state law. It sounds like he avoided jail time as part of a plea deal.

    But, we don’t know what arrangement he might have made regarding civil liability. It’s not in the article and I can’t find it reported anywhere.
