Yaroslavl Lokomotiv terminated the contract with American hockey player Reed Boucher. This was reported on the club’s website.
Cooperation with the striker was terminated on February 18. On February 1, Bush was charged with raping a minor in the United States. The hockey player was sentenced to one year in prison on probation. He was placed on probation for four years.
On December 13 last year, during a court hearing, Bush admitted that at the age of 17 he had raped a 12-year-old girl. The court went to meet the athlete, allowing him to apply for a lesser charge. Initially, he was charged with committing a first-degree sexual offense, for which the American was threatened with up to 25 years in prison.
Boucher is best known for playing for the New Jersey Devils, Nashville Predators, and Vancouver Canucks of the National Hockey League. As part of Omsk Avangard, he became the first US hockey player to win the Gagarin Cup.
