Feel free explaining why he wasn’t charged with B/E. Cops disagreed with you. DA disagreed with you. Judge disagreed with you. That destroys your spin. You lost again.

Mcolluogh didn’t request the charges be pressed. He didn’t call it in to the police. He wanted the whole thing to go away. He accepted his punishment, learned from it and moved on.
This isn’t that hard.

That’s not how it works.

He didn’t call the police to report an intruder, he didn’t request charges be pressed. You don’t understand legal matters either it seems.

How is this an issue? Is it just because Georgia beats the frick out of Tennessee every year, and this guys butthole is hurt? He has some issues with UGA, that’s for sure.

If the police, investigators, DA considered the guy to break and enter, they can charge him with that. The civilian doesn’t make that call. The civilian doesn’t have the authority you think he has.

They can also seek the victim of the B&E to see if they want to press charges. If the apartment occupants initially viewed it as an honest mistake by a drunk kid then and they just want the thing to go away why press charges? The guy that got hit testifying that he was drunk and belligerent was done to help it go away, all parties wanted it to just go away.

Having someone killed x 2 has put the points out of reach for UGA. UGA could act like a saint next couple years and still wouldn’t be enough for the next program to catch them while Kirby is the coach.

Looks like everyone is in agreement it wasn’t an offense worthy of a BNE change. Everyone but you. Your mind thinks in such an illogical way.

2 different things. If McCullough does what the law expects him to do and calls the police it’s a charge. Since he didn’t and it was just a drunk belligerent intruder and McCullough handled it himself it’s not a charge.
How do you claim to have gone to a big university and have zero experience with drunk people? (Spoiler:you didn’t go to UGA or any other major college)

No, that isn’t how it works.
Cops either choose to not charge or to charge. Doesnt matter who called them.
In this case, cops chose to not charge both. Cops chose to not arrest both. Only the guilty vol player who was lucky to avoid jail time.
Again, the civilian doesn’t have the authority you claim.

Actually it is.

Well....this is not true.
Generally, pressing charges refers to a sequence of actions where:
a victim or someone else reports a crime to the police
the police investigate and search for evidence of the crime, and
the prosecutor reviews the allegations and evidence and decides whether to file a criminal complaint.
The prosecutor, in the end, makes the final decision of whether to press charges, but victims, witnesses, and police play a part in the process.
How Do Prosecutors Decide Whether or Not to File Charges?
The concept of prosecutorial discretion is well established in America's criminal justice system. In any criminal investigation, a prosecutor chooses which charge or charges to file or seek from a grand jury. A prosecutor also has the discretion to refrain from filing any charges at all.
Prosecutorial Discretion: To Charge or Not to Charge
Prosecutors should only file charges if they believe admissible evidence supports a conviction.
1. Someone reported a crime or the police would not have arrived.
2. The prosecutor examined the evidence and obviously determined not enough evidence to charge the drunk.
Odd that he did find sufficient evidence to charge McCollough.
And McCollough was more then willing to give his side of the story to the police. But, neither the police, prosecutors or judge found McCollough to be believable, hence McCollough was charged and the drunk did not. Further, McCollough plead guilty and paid $22,000 in damages to the drunk. Are you sure you want to stand by your story that McCollough paid the drunk $22,000 out of the goodness of his heart?

Yeah. He handled it to the tune of a felony aggravated Assault charge a years probation and paid the real victim $22,000.
The l;aw would have given him 3-15 years, but Tennessee thought, "Nope! Two games is enough!"
The student oversight board even found that he, (McCollough) had not violated the universities code of conduct...which does not surprise me at all.
He was never subject to university sanctions after a UT student conduct board investigated and found he did not violate the university's code of conduct.
In other words Felony Assault is within the Tennessee code of conduct. Is anybody surprised by this?

I actually love this take. If they viewed it as an honest mistake why did they follow him out the door and knock several teeth out?
"Tennessee players just want to do what's right!"

If all parties wanted it to go away, as you claim, and the drunk did not want to press charges...why did McCollough get arrested, charged and plea guilty to felony assault? What was he put on probation for and ordered to pay $22,000 for breaking the mans teeth out of his mouth?
And if the guy was so wrong, why did McColough get charged and the drunk got money?
