Someone read up on the law. I see you Acho. Poole has moved on, but him not pressing charges doesn’t matter according to the law.

UFC fighter Terrance McKinney questioned what’s the purpose of admitting it and apologizing if they still want you in trouble.
It’s like people ain’t allowed to make mistakes and apologize. What’s the point of owning up to it and apologizing if they still push for you to get in trouble?

Kyle Grantham puts his thoughts upon both Green and Adams’ situations.
With Green, the state would have to decide it's worth their time and that they could secure a conviction, and typically if the victim chooses not to pursue a charge, that makes that impossible
In Adams' case, the victim wanted charges, so it moved forward
