I will not speak to Aaron personally, nice guy or not, etc. That has no place here. If this is not his first offense, it might be reflective of a real problem. Even if he has a real problem, being an a$$hole and threatening a police officer---if in fact that's what he did---having a real problem is no excuse. You simply will pay the price and live with the consequences; and hopefully, he will seek help to address his problem.
