Those charges were dismissed by the prosecutor and the teen “voluntarily admitted to the allegations of the Amended Complaint,” the records state.

“After further investigation, reviewing expert reports, and statements from witnesses, it was determined that there was insufficient evidence to prove the remaining charges beyond a reasonable doubt,” said Alexandria Bauer, spokesperson for the Cuyahoga County Prosecutor’s Office.
