It's still likely to impact him come draft time one would think. Maybe not making him undraftable, but some sort of fall down the board would make sense.

What team is going to waste their draft pick on a guy who participated in a murder????

I think the publicly available information suggests he had no knowledge of an impending murder. So some team out there is going to chalk it up to youthful indiscretions or poor judgment and take a chance on him.

Or maybe not. Maybe he does go undrafted because of this. We'll see.

He is projected to be a top five pick. This changes nothing. He didn’t do anything wrong. He didn’t commit a crime. If the state of Alabama could charge him with a crime, they absolutely would. You can legally carry and possess a firearm in Alabama without a permit or background check. He transported a gun that was owned by an individual directly to that owner.

Not mutually exclusive

Your claim that the state of Alabama would absolutely charge Miller with a crime if they could is laughable.

They've chosen not to do so, but he 100% could've been charged in several different ways if the authorities had wanted to go that direction.

Too many people on here are incapable of reading an article or reading comprehension. Here is a DIRECT QUOTE from the article:

Paula Whitley, Tuscaloosa chief deputy district attorney, told AL.com on Tuesday that "there's nothing we could charge [Miller] with."

Now, explain what different ways you are aware of that he could/would be charged with a crime, that the Chief Deputy District Attorney for this region is not aware of and that had not been considered for which evidence is available and that a conviction would be probable.

I’ll wait.

Yes, I too am shocked that the prosecutor people are complaining didn’t do his job said that he did, in fact, do his job.

There’s no point in wasting time explaining the obvious ways he could’ve been charged to you. Based on my own personal experience, anyone with a legal background claiming he couldn’t have been charged is either lying or being deliberately ignorant. Feel free to choose your own adventure.
