If he wasn't a pro athlete, I'd wager that he would be prosecuted to the full extent of the law for something more like attempted murder.

How is it possible for this reprobate to get such lenient treatment?
I'm not a criminal attorney, but from what I hear, it's not only athletes that get breaks like that, but normal people as well. It's probably standard procedure for his situation.
