    Five felonies reduced to 2 misdemeanors?! Overzealous prosecution or slap on the wrist? I genuinely do not know and would like to.

      I have no real knowledge of the case and IANAL but I’m guessing some combo of first time offender, good legal team (kids father was a long-time backup NFL QB), and probably hard to prove direct possession/responsibility for the materials.
