Charges against Pastor Creflo Dollar, stemming from the June 2012 domestic dispute involving his teenage daughter, have been dropped, reports 11Alive.com.
His 15-year-old daughter told authorities that the World Changers mega-pastor shoved her to the ground, choked and hit her with a shoe — but apparently that wasn’t enough.
According to State Court Solicitor Jamie Inagawa, after reviewing the evidence and interviewing the daughter, he decided that Dollar fit the criteria for a pre-trial intervention program.
Though he was initially charged with simple battery and cruelty to children, Dollar was ordered to take anger management classes and pay $1,072 in fees and court costs.
As previously reported by NewsOne, Dollar never admitted to any wrong doing:
“I will say this emphatically: I should have never been arrested,” he said to his congregation in his first public appearance two days after his arrest. He received a standing ovation.
“The truth is that a family conversation with our youngest daughter got emotional,” he said. “And emotions got involved and things escalated from there.”
