    dg..

    I was wondering the same thing. Why are the club owners and employees considered the bad guys here? We have yet to see the testimony or comments from the shooting victims. That would be interesting..

    Well unless it was one of his employees who opened fire then no, he wouldnt be responsible. And even if it was one of his employees, he most likely still wouldnt be held liable at all, since that employee would be acting beyond the duties of his job.

    how bout the publicist's account? I don't see why that's seen as so much less credible than the owners, I don't really believe either, it'll be interesting to see what the police find, for all practical purposes, that's all that matters.

    A publicist job is to make the story appear favorable, or at least less damaging to their client. Does that automatically mean she is lieing? Of course not. But I dont think it can be argued that her job more or less depends on her making the situation less damaging as possible to Pac Man.

    Plus the fact she let her client get thrown under the bus for a week before saying anything, would kind of indicate that it took her a week to come up with this story. Just speculation on my part, but it makes no sense to have your client's name driven into the ground for a whole week before you offer up a differing take on what happened.

    Don't forget...

    Pacman jones was fined $100,000 and suspended for one game for an incident in a murfreesboro bar that he was cleared of criminal charges for. This is not just what crimes he has or has not committed or can get away with. The team and league are looking at his behavior.
