If you’re dropping the charges, you are basically admitting wrongdoing anyway.I'd be very surprised if there was an apology. That's basically admitting wrongdoing and asking for a lawsuit.

Agree 100%. From a PR perspective, yes, apologize to Scottie with Scottie and cameras present.The DA wants a media event to highlight the stupidity of the Louisville Police Department and the incompetence shown by their Office and is holding an unnecessary hearing?
Smart thing to do is drop charges. Apologize. Label it as a misunderstanding. And announce a full report will follow but you have done a preliminary investigation and charges are dropped.
Yeah, I get what other people are saying as far as apologies admits the mistakes, but if Scottie isn't looking to soak them for it, they may come to an understanding that a public apology will prevent a lawsuit.The DA wants a media event to highlight the stupidity of the Louisville Police Department and the incompetence shown by their Office and is holding an unnecessary hearing?

No, it generally means the DA doesn’t believe they can prove guilt in a trial, or more accurately they don’t want to waste their time and resources in a trial.If you’re dropping the charges, you are basically admitting wrongdoing anyway.
Generally, yes. But there are instances where the DA doesn’t agree with the cops actions and wants to move on.No, it generally means the DA doesn’t believe they can prove guilt in a trial, or more accurately they don’t want to waste their time and resources in a trial.
Yes this too.Generally, yes. But there are instances where the DA doesn’t agree with the cops actions and wants to move on.
Must be a lot of DAs (or wannabes) out there who know all about this stuff, including the facts in this case.Based on what I have read, if the DA lets this go to court, they will get crushed.
From the accounts available, the natural confusion that can arise in such a situation, and the fact that he can afford any lawyer in the world, I cannot see any chance that he'd end up in jail.Based on what I have read, if the DA lets this go to court, they will get crushed.
It would be crazy/tragic that one of golf's "good guys" ended up in jail somehow over this (especially with a newborn son). I doubt it gets there, but it is possible.

Louisville presser was a bunch of nothing. Cop didn't turn on his body cam. Got his hand slapped for that. Have two videos (one from a pole camera, and one from a cruiser), sounds like they are releasing those to the press, though I haven't seen anything yet. Wouldn't address anything else.
Yep, I'm guessing he got a piece of paper put in his file, and if he does something similar 47 more times, he might be fired.Penalty for not wearing a seat belt is probably greater than what the cop received for not having body cam on.
No no, not fired, given the opportunity to retire with full pension.Yep, I'm guessing he got a piece of paper put in his file, and if he does something similar 47 more times, he might be fired.
