Wait ... they're alleging he knocked her unconscious, dragged her out of the room and left her on the hallway floor out cold? Well, it's obvious why the team is sticking by him ... she's still alive after all.
Just read where he married that b-b-eautiful fiance of his three days ago. He didn't have to do that ... sounds like the prosecutor's satisfied he has what he needs even without her testimony though.
New law in these United States as of about 2007 ... in DV situations, prosecutors can now use the 'excited utterance' exception to the hearsay rule to permit cops to testify to what the vic said at the scene when vic is unavailable (hiding/recanting after reconciling) to testify ... all without violating defendants rights to confront and cross. For some of you, that's important information. You know who you are

I see plea bargain all over this.....

If Maryland or whatever state they were in that night does not have this, it'll be like Herc says, she'll try to evade it, explain it away: "(Flashing enormous rock on left hand) I was so tired that night! I took two Ambien! He didn't hit me, he reached out to brace my fall, I was SO TIRED I was falling down!"

Originally posted by Hercules Rockefeller View PostYes, because claiming it was a misunderstanding is really corroborated with the video of her getting drug out of an elevator unconscious. It will also depend on what she told the police that night, if she gave a statement. If she tries to change her account, they'll impeach her with her prior statements.

It raises other ethical and privacy issues regardless of the evidence. It's one of the reasons these types of cases plea or get outright dropped.
