Not good news for Charles

Those charges would never have stuck…but they were sufficient to induce him to plead guilty to a misdemeanor.

That establishes his legal culpability for a fight that resulted in the death of a bystander—whose family have already filed a wrongful death suit. And if Georgia has a “deep pockets” law, a civil suit that leaves Grant holding even 1% of the culpability could also leave him holding 100% of the responsibility for the judgment.

Grant needs a new lawyer. Well, too late now.

What? He didn't plead quilty to anything.

He pled “No Contest” to public fighting.

I think this is great news for him.

(The prosecution) admitted in its own opening statement that Grant was trying to break up the fight.

He’s golden.

No contest is treated as guilty in every way except for actually admitting guilt.

And the civil case could (and almost certainly would) treat it as a guilty verdict.

It did seem like both sides were claiming victory in the T-P article…odd.
