WHY AM I NOT SURPRISED THAT ALCOHOL WAS INVOLVED?

Now we have all heard the term, “stick a fork in it,” but a note to those drinking excessively in Muncie, IN … I dont think they mean literally. Rodney Gilliam of Muncie, Indiana was arrested Monday for stabbing his brother, Randy, with a fork. The argument was over pot roast. Wow, that must have been some roast. But of course as you guessed it, this was an alcohol related fork stabbing. Police later collected the fork used in the alleged stabbing.

Trump Campaign Manager Corey Lewandowski Charged With simple Battery of Former Breitbart Reporter Michelle Fields (VIDEO)

CRIME OR OR POLITICAL TRUMPED UP CHARGES? 

The Jupiter, Florida Police Department have arrested and charged Donald Trump’s campaign manager Corey Lewandowski with simple battery of former Breitbart reporter Michelle Fields. I am not to sure about this. Michelle Fields, then with the online Breitbart News Service, alleges that Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski forcefully grabbed her at a news conference at Trump National Golf Club in Jupiter. It is hard to believe that anyone would pursue this. It just does not appear that there was any malice or intent here. Wow, talk about your “trumped” up charges. Lewandowski was issued a notice to appear on a misdemeanor battery charge. The New York City resident is expected in Palm Beach County Circuit Court May 4. I will be the first to go after anyone who assaults a female, or anyone for that matter. If this is the new bar that is set, I can only hope that Jupiter, FL has no stores open on “Black Friday”.

VIDEO – Palm Beach Post

Donald Trump’s campaign manager Corey Lewandowski was arrested and charged in Jupiter, Florida, with simple battery of former Breitbart reporter Michelle Fields, according to police.

The Jupiter Police Department told CNN that Lewandowski was arrested Tuesday morning after turning himself in on the misdemeanor charge of simple battery.

They said Lewandowski has been released and his initial court appearance is scheduled for May 4. The department also released new video that shows the alleged incident from an overhead angle.

Campaign spokeswoman Hope Hicks and one of Lewandowski’s lawyers, Scott Richardson, both released a statement Tuesday saying Lewandowski is “absolutely innocent of this charge,” and will plead not guilty.

“He will enter a plea of not guilty and looks forward to his day in court. He is completely confident that he will be exonerated,” the statement said.

UPDATE I: Rush Limbaugh Suggests Corey Lewandowski Arrest Nothing But A Political Attack.

“Now the Corey Lewandowski situation, it’s, it’s kind of strange, the media cannot get enough of this. I mean CNN I think has been doing this for half an hour already. And all there is to this is this. Lewandowski has been charged, and there are two schools of thought. Some people say that he has not been arrested he has instead been served with an order to appear. So it’s, it’s not technically an arrest but it is a written order to appear in court on a certain day. And that’s where you essentially are arraigned, you enter your plea, and then they go from there. Now the Jupiter Police, however are saying he has been arrested. So there is some linguistics disparity here. But it is a misdemeanor. The maximum statutory penalties for what Lewandowski has been charged with, maximum one year behind bars, maximum one year probation. Either or. And or. And then whatever fines might be added to this as well. Now given that this would be a first offense.. You know you don’t know the political makeup of the prosecutor’s office, I mean there’s all kinds of factors that will weigh in on this. And of course Lewandowski’s gonna plead not guilty, which means it’s going to require proof on the part of the accusers.

UPDATE II: Greta Van Susteren: In My Wildest Dreams I Don’t See How a Jury Convicts Lewandowski.

“In my wildest dreams I don’t see how a jury ever convicts on this with all the ambiguity. In fact, it looks like two Secret Service who were protecting Donald Trump are reaching for her. I don’t know whether or not that is what is provoking the bruises or not. That’s the problem. Here’s your reasonable doubt right there.”

UPDATE III: Donald Trump threatens to press charges against reporter.

Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump on Tuesday threatened to press charges against former Breitbart reporter Michelle Fields, claiming she grabbed him after a press conference.

“Victory press conference was over. Why is she allowed to grab me and shout questions? Can I press charges?” Trump tweeted Tuesday with a photo.
