Here is an excellent thread on the the legal standing of the affair. Here are some excerpts from the following Twitter thread.

"Now here's where things sort of go off the rails. As I talk about all the time, the media is often sloppy with their reporting. They confuse terms and are imprecise with language leading to confusion. Oftentimes that confusion then multiplies like a game of telephone."

"Foremost - a huge pet peeve - I keep seeing that he is being "charged" with this crime. NO. We need to stop this. There are no charges. The case is under investigation for *consideration* of those charges. Massive difference."

"Next - he has a "court date" on March 8th. Not really. Yes there is docketing for the 8th, but that's more of what we call a "status" date than a court date. It's a reminder for the court to check on the status of the investigation."

"The docket's exact words are: "Status Check on Filing of Criminal Complaint"

"Next - what is this document circling around? It was first posted as the "police report" but it appears that what we are looking at is actually a Probable Cause charging document for use..."

"...at the Preliminary Hearing (early stages of a felony) or for filing Misdemeanor charges. I could be wrong, but I don't think that is the police report. In fact, the other document going around has that PC doc, plus a small blurb on Kamara's statement."

"There are things in the PC doc that wouldn't normally appear in a police report. But also, the Kamara part clearly says "page 6 of 6" at the top right corner. I have not been able to obtain the first 5 pages. Their website says only in-person pickup for police reports."

"This is a good time to repeat myself: Whenever a victim is involved things are VERY unpredictable. This could be an awful result for Kamara, or the victim could decide down the road to drop it. Just remember - we. don't. know. The victim plays a BIG role in the outcome."

There's much, much more in the attached thread. Well worth reading.

Even if the victim drops the charges the DA can still prosecute. I think he’s screwed.

Only time will tell. A slew of people thought Lattimore was screwed, as well. The first step would be to actually have charges filed against him.
