Poor editorial written by a non lawyer. This guys opinion means nothing.

Hill knew he was on probation he should have just left it alone and left the bar in fact he shouldn't have been there to begin with. Oh well live and learn.
Why do people keep saying stuff like this? Is it against team rules for players to go to the bars? Hill is of legal age to enter a bar, so he had every right to be there if it wasn't against the rules of his probation.
Sure, probably not the best place to hangout for someone on probation with a lot to lose. However, it is where college kids hang out. Deal with it.

I'll repeat this:
I absolutely cannot believe how the LSU football program is treated in BR. At most big time programs shite like this would just run it's course and you would barely hear about it. Not in BR. What other big time programs have their own students targeting football players? ADA's trying to send a kid to jail for a fricking bar fight? Newspapers convicting people in articles? This shite is unbelievable.

t all depends on the legal system treating him like a STAR football player,or a reg citizen.
Hes already gotten the baton rouge star football player treatment. This would be gone if he were a regular citizen. Hell he would have never been arrested because there would be no phone filming. One punch. No injuries. 2 misdemeanors. People are blowing this way out of proportion.

There are some real self important assholes in BR, I'll tell you that.
This assistant DA is completely ridiculous.

It's really something that they're wasting the resources on this shite.

Especially considering oh I don't know...
People are being killed left and right in BR and they want to push to send a football player to jail for ONE punch in a bar fight when he was verbally provoked with alleged racial remarks...
Some of these posters are blood thirsty.

I wouldn't use racially degrading language to anyone in that setting and not expect to get punched in the face.

if everyone that punched someone in the face got kicked off the team it would be a WNBA event out there.
You aren't understanding why he's in trouble. It's not so much for the punch, it's for incident with the 14-year-old girl.
That WAS a sexual charge originally, wasn't it? He pled guilty to a lesser charge and was put in probation.
Now, he violated the probation. Will the court system treat it as a violation of a misdemeanor probation, or as a guy who was charged with a more serious crime, then violated probation on a lesser charge.
In other words, will he be treated the same as a guy who's on probation for a crime that was a misdemeanor from the original charge. Let's say a guy who's caught vandalizing property by spray painting stuff on walls. He gets put on probation and gets in a bar fight during probation. Is he treated the same as a guy who's on probation after pleading down from a felony sex offense?
I don't know the answer to that question. Some Rant lawyers would have to chime in. But I do suspect the guy who pleads down from a felony sexual assault charge won't be treated the same as a guy whose original charge that eventually led to his probation was a somewhat innocuous vandalism charge.

There are some stupid people that post here. Or at least people that say incredibly stupid things.

Not to mention the gas station incident.
I do believe too much pressure is applied by somebody to police football players.
Fights happen every night in BR at LSU and southern, seems LSU players are the only ones that things get this blown up.

Not hard to understand. They are viewed as public figures and the media goes apeshit over it. The publicity puts the cops and DA office in a tough spot. And there is usually a cellphone capturing the event and shared with the media. It's not like the old days when the media wouldn't report on such things if the cops and/or DA office swept it under the rug.
People in public life are scrutinized much more harshly. Not fair, but it is reality for them.

It's insane to blame miles for not being able to stop this from happening. If a Judge that had Hill in his court giving him probation and explaining what could happen if he messes up couldn't get through to a kid then nothing Miles could do would either.
