Come on, if it really appears the guy was acting in good faith, he's a responsible citizen, not a criminal.

Totally agree. That county is notorious for overcharging crap and then pleading it so they can be "tough on crime" so I'm betting he'll end up pleading down to a disorderly. I think he should take it to trial if they don't dismiss and demand a jury trial.

Ok, in this situation, shouldn't the other owner really be the one who determines if charges are pressed or not? I mean, if he backs down and says, eh, whatever, would there still be charges or can the state press them on its own?

No, the state makes all charging decisions. This causes a lot of problems like in domestic violence cases where the victim will call the DA a few days later and say "Oh, I didn't really want to call the police, it's not a big deal, blah blah..." but at that point the victim has no say. They lose control of the case when they call the police.

I so agree. I remember watching some True Crime Stories on A&E and people could hear a woman being murdered and no one did jack about it and then the murderer killed 2 or 3 more people being being caught. They could have nipped it in the bud right then and there if they'd done something.
I am LMAO about the fact that he had a sword but no phone.
