I consider this a serious offense. Depending on the circumstances, simple battery could be classified as a felony and punishable by fine and/or imprisonment. It could also come under the topic of domestic violence, since it was a girlfriend.
He is not a kid, he is a man acting like a kid. He should NEVER hit a woman. Since I have a daughter, I hope CMR doles out serious punishment. SC must accept responsibility, take the punishment, and hopefully learn from this mistake. Yes, we all make mistakes, but I do not buy the excuse that he is just a kid. Sorry, but this type of behavior is unacceptable.
