If victim drops charges against Hill would all this go away.. It happens every day. Maybe if he is a great LSU fan maybe he'll just take this punch for the team. Or is battery something you can't drop. I think aggravated battery is much worse. What say you Pre Law ranters.

I'm sure TAF could move his name to the top of the ticket list if he were willing to drop charges.

Fix thread title or it will get whacked. You can't add What If at the end, must add in the beginning. Misleading.

Dude you need to put what if at the beginning of the title, I thought they were dropped.

I say kick him off the team he punched a girl

He didn't punch a girl, it was a frat douche

If it's dropped then nothing will happen probably other than a 1 game suspension or he'll be backing up Blue for sure now

Even if the victim dropped the charges, the DA can still pursue it.

The State of LA has brought the criminal charges against Hill, not the victim. The victim could request that the state drop the charges, but it's the state's (i.e. the DA or ADA) decision whether to do so or not.

Yep DA can and will pursue it

You guys missing the Main Issue here and it is did he violate his Probation from 2011??? If you read the about Violating Probation it states the Penalties are Severe in Louisiana for Violation of Probation!! The Probation Officer and a Judge will need to decide if he did violate the Probation and if he did he goes to Jail for 6 Months for the 2011 issue. If he is found guilty of the Bar Issue it could add to his 6 months. Precedents are that the Second Sentence is added to the First one. I think Hill is in deep dodo and it is up to the Probation Officer, a Judge, and Lawyers!!

How do you know it's the state vs hill and not the victim vs hill?
If its simple battery (a misdemeanor) and its not domestic then the state wouldn't take the charges unless it was witnessed by a cop. Even if that is the case then the victim still plays a significant role in the case. If the victim says I don't want charges, or doesn't want to get on the stand against him then it makes it a bit harder to prosecute.
In domestic cases, however, the state can take the charges regardless of if the victim wants too or not. Now proving it becomes much harder.
Mostly the state will only take charges on felony cases (except DV). Unless it was witnessed by law enforcement.
