Getting the charge reduced to a misdemeanor charge is also communion a first offense.   I have to get court records of offenses for my job and I see this all the time.  Highly unlikely anyone would be in prison for this crime on a first offense, especially if they had a decent attorney.  It is also very common for college and high school kids to make mistakes like this, and judges would and do hesitate to ruin their whole lives over it.   Pre trial diversion programs were created for purposes like these.  They are used often and not used to placate any college.

Just ask a certain former Ravens RB...
