We’ll see. I don’t know the Miami area but Florida is leaning law and order unlike some other places in this country. 
His attorneys will try to politicize it, to blame the victim, they’ll use all the go to defense tactics they do these days. 

One of the victims is the cop.  How are they going to blame him?

Again, this isn't a he-said, she-said situation.  He assaulted a professional athlete and a police officer.  And all of it is on camera.  There is only so much an attorney can do when the evidence is on tape.

You can't just say stuff without reasoning.

What exactly could the attorney say that would place fault on the officers in this situation, when it will ALL be on the dash cam?  

Respectfully, it feels like you are just overlooking the details and just assuming because he is an athlete, it will be okay.  This isn't an ordinary DV situation.  This isn't he said, she said situation.  He hit a cop with his car. And it was on camera.  That literally happened.  Realistically, how could the cops be blamed?  

Yes, I get it.  Athletes get a lot of leeway with crime.  But this isn't going to be one of those situations.  Feel free to come back to this thread a year from now and throw it in my face if I'm wrong.  But he's 100% going to eat at least one or two of the charges.

I see it every day. Just watch CSPAN lol. 
But look at the lawyers, the media, it is every day with the over the top counter accusations. 
Blame the victim is one of the leading legal strategies of our current time. 
They don’t care if what they say is not true or reasonable or anything. 
 

edit: I guess we’ll see what they have to say. Trying to shift blame off him and onto anyone else, is about all they have.  
High likelihood they come up with some angle making him a victim. Maybe they still lose… I don’t think expecting the low road is unreasonable any more.

The cop side aside, if there is even the tiniest bit of evidence about him ramming her car multiple times with his own to try and run her off the road, there is no way they'll be able to play him as the victim unless they say she had a gun and shot at him before he did it.

If there is ever any public evidence of that or him hitting the cop with his car, he'll never play another snap in the NFL.

Teams can sell second chances to their fans with no public evidence, but if there is any public evidence of DA in today's day and age, that player is never stepping into an NFL locker room again, as they shouldn't.
