Stokes Arrested

Not Terrible
Of course they gained an advantage. They got paid to do it ffs
It isn't like you can't cheat to help the other team either. The Spot fixing saga wasn't really about them 'cheating' in that particular game, though you could definitely argue deliberately bowling no balls to hinder your own team is a form of cheating, but more to show that they were ready and willing to cheat for future scenarios.

It was infinitely worse than what Smith and co. did

Wait so is it legitimately looking like jail time? Haven't really been following
I doubt it. Probably suspended sentence with something lumped on like community service/AA/Anger management classes. If it is a custodial sentence it will be brief.

Community service will just be hanging out with junior grade kiddies and telling them to lean into their drives.

A jury just ruled roundup will give you the cancers and an Italian one a few years ago strung up some blokes for not predicting an earthquake.

The common man is an idiot and juries contain 12 of them. Stokes could well get a medal and a decent cheque yet.
