Nice story. I can't believe he wound up getting 1 year for battery in 1975.  No prior record and a first time offender. It was so hard to convict any offenders back then.  The laws were so different, especially for first offenders. Think of all the serial killers back in the 60s/70s. Many of them had priors before they were caught. Heck, some judges/prosecutors would still ask the question of a rape victim, if they enjoyed what happened to them.  (Or similar question) It’s hard to believe that conviction, especially since the football player was also a "celebrity." Ah well, I actually enjoyed the outcome. There was brilliant acting all around and the actors were well-placed.
