Richmond prosecutors were not authorized under state law to dismiss an assault charge against a city police officer after he agreed to pay his victim's medical costs, Richmond's top prosecutor acknowledged today.
McCloskey, off-duty and in plain clothes, went into the bar and saw an ex-girlfriend and a man sitting in a booth. McCloskey and the woman got in an argument, and the man, Richard Thompson, 35, interjected and said something to the effect of, "Dude, chill out, relax."
The two men exchanged words, and while Thompson was still in his seat, he was punched about six times in the head, Herring said. Thompson had a cut and heavy bleeding. His injuries required four stitches. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
[The American Colonies were] all democratic governments, where the power is in the hands of the people and where there is not the least difficulty or jealousy about putting arms into the hands of every man in the country. [European countries should not] be ignorant of the strength and the force of such a form of government and how strenuously and almost wonderfully people living under one have sometimes exerted themselves in defence of their rights and liberties and how fatally it has ended with many a man and many a state who have entered into quarrels, wars and contests with them. — George Mason, "Remarks on Annual Elections for the Fairfax Independent Company" in The Papers of George Mason, 1725-1792, ed Robert A. Rutland (Chapel Hill, 1970). |
