Nobody believed him. “Sweet Feet?” said X-Ray. “Yeah, right!” “No way,” said Squid.
Now, as Stanley lay on his cot, he thought it was kind of funny in a way.
Nobody had believed him when he said he was innocent. Now, when he said he stole them, nobody believed him either.
Clyde “Sweet Feet” Livingston was a famous baseball player. He’d led the American League in stolen bases over the last three years.
He was also the only player in history to ever hit four triples in one game.
Stanley had a poster of him hanging on the wall of his bedroom. He used to have the poster anyway. He didn’t know where it was now.
It had been taken by the police and was used as evidence of his guilt in the courtroom.
Clyde Livingston also came to court. In spite of everything, when Stanley found out that Sweet Feet was going to be there,
he was actually excited about the prospect of meeting his hero.
Clyde Livingston testified that they were his sneakers and that he had donated them to help raise money for the homeless shelter.
He said he couldn’t imagine what kind of horrible person would steal from homeless children.
That was the worst part for Stanley. His hero thought he was a no-good-dirty-rotten thief.
