Bizzare story of the year award. Still, he hasn't been charged yet, so who knows....most of the websites seem to be assuming the Butler did it though.

Yes, of course he may not be guilty, or involved in any way.

I recently saw an interview with James Butler just before he got his licence back. He seemed sincere in his regrets about the after bell assault.

But this isn't looking good for him, still inocent untill proved otherwise.
