Robert Vito recently found himself in a legal predicament, but it seems like he may be getting off the hook. The actor will not be facing criminal charges following his arrest last month, according to reports. Instead, he will be meeting with the Los Angeles City Attorney’s Office to discuss alternative conflict resolution methods to prevent similar situations in the future.
The incident that led to Vito’s arrest involved a domestic dispute with his then-girlfriend, Lindsey Jennings. Allegations were made that Vito had pushed their son during an argument, resulting in his arrest on a felony domestic violence charge. However, it appears that the case will be put on hold, and if Vito stays out of trouble for the next year, he may never face charges for the incident.
Sources close to the situation claim that Lindsey had visible injuries, leading to Vito’s arrest. Despite this, the district attorney’s office decided not to pursue felony charges, and now the City Attorney will not be filing a misdemeanor either. Vito’s attorney, Bob M. Farahan, has stated that while they believe Vito should never have been arrested, they understand that law enforcement acted based on limited information.
Farahan also emphasized that Vito does not support violence of any kind and is eager to move past this incident to focus on being a present father to his son. It seems that Vito is looking forward to putting this ordeal behind him and moving on from the legal troubles.
