The punishment does not fit the crime, but that is the punishment. If you wanted to lobby to change the punishment, I'd support yoiu in that, but as of the day when the boy was on the bus, that was a crime that bared with it the penalty of a $300 fine. It is unfortunate that the kid is guilty, but the fact of the matter is, despite the severity of the punishment, the boy is 100% guilty. My dissapointment is in the father and the boy for pleading not guilty. Their blatent lie is much worse in my eyes than the hefty punishment dealt.
