Chris Young confidently responded to his critics, referred to as "trolls," after he was found innocent of all accusations following his arrest last Monday.
The vocalist used social media to share a surveillance video and address those who criticized him for touching a law enforcement officer, expressing his perspective.
On Friday, the Nashville District Attorney Glenn Funk declared that he had completed his examination of the evidence and decided to dismiss the charges. Earlier, the Tennessee Alcoholic Beverage Commission had acknowledged their involvement in pressuring Young to keep his distance after he attempted to interfere with their license check.
A video obtained by Taste of Country depicts Young attempting to prevent an agent without displaying any signs of aggression. From one angle, it is doubtful whether Young even made physical contact with the man.
The singer of the song "Young Love & Saturday Nights" claims that he never made physical contact with anyone. He recently posted a video on his TikTok account where he addresses the incident for the very first time.
There are individuals online who are criticizing and advising against any physical interaction with a police officer, but I want to clarify that I did not make any physical contact with him. This is what the person stated.
Since all charges have been dismissed, Young is no longer legally involved in the incident. It is probable that he will resume promoting his upcoming album, Young Love & Saturday Night, which is scheduled to be released on March 22.
