Suffolk County District Attorney Raymond A. Tierney emphasized that the defendant's actions betrayed trust, stating, 'This defendant executed a scheme to line his own pockets with funds that were intended to benefit children.'
Dix Hills Soccer Club President Martin Targett remarked on the outcome, noting, 'Justice has been served for the members of our club and community,' acknowledging the collaborative effort in addressing the crime.
As part of his plea agreement, Dickson faces three years of probation, over 400 hours of community service, and must issue an apology to the board of directors.
