He'll plead to simple assault and get community service.

Which feels right honestly.

Why will a plea be necessary?

So he doesn't go to jail?

Should the prosecutor's job be to see that he doesn't go to jail?

I dislike the UofU plenty, but why should it be civilly liable for the criminal act of a fan attending the game?

Industry standard it to take the lids off bottle when you sell them. It's done in most stadia for this very reason. Utah

I guess BYU is below the standard of care as well. I purchased water bottles this year at the stadium with the cap.

Punish the kid but that’s not aggravated assault! At most a class A misdemeanor

It doesn't have to involve a weapon to be a 3rd degree felony.
