He was smart to do this. Now he cannot be charged with more serious crimes. Charges can be amended prior to this point. But once the defendant pleads to the charges, then that ends the window to amend charges. He can't be charged twice for the same crime. That would be double-jeapardy and not allowed by law. His attorney got this pushed through ASAP to ensure no more can happen (criminal charge wise). The civil litigation, I'd guess, will go on for a long time though.

Glad this part is behind him. The civil side will (as noted) take time and money. Now it’s a question of his strength of character to see if he can get himself in shape, get his head on straight and commit to the game and his craft. I’m not convinced based upon his UGA day workouts that he’s there yet.

Sometimes a traumatic event is enough to snap someone back into the reality of what they've become and have already lost because of it. Or sometimes not. The Bears are right to continue to do their due diligence on him. His potential is enormous if he can change his ways.
