An Escambia County Sheriff’s Office arrest report stated that Grime’s mother told deputies that he had shoved her into a wall, causing facial injuries.

However, the victim told prosecutors that Grimes did not push her as the arrest report stated, and she requested that charges be dropped almost immediately after his arrest.

“She said it was all just a misunderstanding,” Assistant State Attorney Greg Marcille said.
