Good news: He may win millions of dollars from LaBelle — and possibly from the USMA, although they may be immune from suit.

Bad news: Where does he go to get his good name back? “Kicked out of West Point for being in a drunken fight” is technically true but woefully unfair.

Two drinks on the plane are unlikely to have made him drunk. In Texas it is against the law to be publicly intoxicated, and the BAC level limit is 0.08%.

At a body weight of 160 pounds, he’d have needed 4 drinks to reach that level, according to http://dui.drivinglaws.org/drink-table.php

Hopefully, this young man will prevail in the civil suit and perhaps may be able to use the results to make criminal claims against the thugs, departmental claims against the HPD officers, and to reopen his case at West Point.

In any case the official statement from West Point fails to address the injustice against a cadet who was assaulted by thugs, as the video made the thuggery obvious.

That's better than many of us have done on our best day. :)
